Horse Racing

One time I went to the horse races wth my dad and a whole host of his good friends who were total characters. Anydoodles, we're going to Hialeah down in Florida because we loved Miami Vice and that was the race track with the pink flamingos during the title sequence. The catch is you can't get in to the horse races in Florida unless you're over 16 or 18 or something. So we've got a limo and all these rich and famous fellas ready to roll. We walk up to the place and they won't let us in cuz I was like 12 but I looked 8. So we go back to the car and Walter Matthau takes a cork out of a wine bottle and burns one end of it. Then he paints a black charcoal mustache on my face. I was as blonde as could be. We walk back up to the same guy we walked up to a few minutes before like he wouldn't notice us and he turns us away again.

Stuck

Imagine a super hot white chick from Echo Park with the voice of Tammi Terrell wearing elaborate baby doll costumes playing ukelele with live hip hop beats.

I think sometimes you stumble across great talents in your life. Sometimes they are sung and others are unsung. I want to sing this one. I'm not the first to sing her praises. But I join the chorus. Holland Greco. Aka Heartkour. Aka the lead singer of The Peak Show.

This video and song completely mesmerize me. The counter says it has been watched over 1000 times. I think if you watch multiple times from the same IP address it doesn't register because I've watched/listened to it probably that many times myself.
Enjoy!

I just took this at the Wells Fargo on the corner of Crescent Heights & Wilshire. You better run over there quick.

White Man's Curse Review And Year End Message

The guy that told U2 to change their name from "The Hype" and that has designed all their album covers wrote a review of White Man's Curse which was published in issue #5 on page 22 of Lonesome Highway magazine. Here's a direct link to the review.

So 'tis the end of the year. Just a little status report.
2008.
62 shows.
12 cities.
Released an album. You can download it here for free!
Played 2 sold out shows at the House of Blues on Sunset with Pat Green.
Other notable shows of 2008... Played with Country music hall of famer Junior Brown at Fishlips in Bakersfield. He played this song which is great! "You broke her heart. She's comin' here. You do the math." Now that's a chorus.
Played with Rock and roll hall of fame guitarist Mike Campbell of Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers at the Viper Room. And many other bad ass bands.

If you've been out to a show recently you'll notice that we're playing a lot of new songs. I counted them up recently and there are at least 22. So we're gonna be doin' another album in 2009.
And doing some more touring...
And continuing to have the time of my life.
Thanks for coming along for the ride so far. We're goin' places.

Come top it off with us at O'Brien's Pub on New Year's Eve. We're playing from 8:30pm-11pm. There's also DJ and all chaos will ensue.
