Things have been quite on this blog for a bit. Sorry about that.
I was deep in the middle of studio stuff when my partner Ron became sick. This is the wrong place to discuss personal matters, but I can safely say that his illness became the number one focus around here and the recording process has been put on hold for the time being.
Needless to point out, I sure hope he gets better soon.
Meanwhile, I've been quietly writing new songs and running my business, Books of the Dead Press. During this downtime I've been considering a few things, like putting a band together, or perhaps playing a few shows acoustically.
If I put a band together first, then start playing, the band will likely be a little harder than the songs I've recorded, bordering on punk rock.
If I start playing live first, picking up players as I go, I have a feeling that I'll be, more or less, falling into the Folk Punk category, or perhaps even creating a new genre of music... something I've been referring to as Horror Folk.
Actually, a few people have pointed out that 'Horror Folk' is exactly what I'm doing. It wasn't my intention, but apparently, that's the gig.
Not sure how this will play out.
I'll keep you posted.
