PHILIP GIBBS with JUSTIN SMITH "You Don't Know"

I had the pleasure of finally shooting Austin's own Philip Gibbs when he found his way this week to New York City while roaming the country on his national tour.  Our good friend Justin "the giant fiddler" Smith sat in for an impromptu afternoon of playing and shooting.  I'm gonna release a couple of tracks this week, and save two more for Philip's CD release next spring.  I can't say enough about Philip's song writing, and what a pleasure this shoot was.  This track is from his phenomenal 2003 CD Paper Crosses.  You can keep up with Philip's ramblings HERE.

THE DEFIBULATORS "Go Go Truck"

From The Defibs April 2010 show at Brooklyn Bowl.  Not sure how this one fell through the cracks, but I ran across the rough cut yesterday and took the time to polish and finish it.  Again, a great night of music, and I highly recommend checking out some music at this venue should the opportunity arise.  Coming up are some tracks from Austin's own Philip Gibbs with Justiin Smith sitting in on fiddle, that we shot in Prospect Park yesterday.  For now, hope you enjoy....

The Woes  "Tacoma"

I finally finished this Woes video from our May 2010 shoot in New York City.  We found ourselves in the basement of a 100+ year old building in the lower east side for the shoot.  Many thanks to Jesse Lauter for handling the sound recording, and John Wells at Cabin Creek who mixed and mastered.  I think I have one more of these up my sleeve in the coming weeks.

Tour Video- Stuckey and Murray & the Defibulators

We lost 90 percent of the video footage from our tour with the Defibulators this summer so we did our best to make a video using the pictures and small amount of video we were able to salvage. Enjoy.

Set one closer from his July Shrine show up in Harlem.  Thanks to Vanilla G for getting the audio over to me.  All in all a good show.  You can keep up with Jerry Joseph and the Jackmormons HERE, or catch him on tour with Stockholm Syndrome starting next month.

James Dalton "Senator's Square"

A track from our August 8th Prospect Park shoot in Brooklyn.  James is an old friend we last worked with when he added harmonica tracks to the Skiptracer's Soundtrack.  He was gracious enough to agree to the park shoot, and a few other iron's we have in the fire.  For the time being, you can follow James HERE.

Jerry Joseph "Savage Garden"

Timbobareno and I shot this Jerry Joseph show at Shrine in Harlem back in July.  I've played hell getting the audio from the show, hence the delay getting this posted, but in the end I think it was worth the wait.  I'll have more of this come come.  For more info on Jerry Joseph, you can click HERE.

BEN LEAR "Scuba Lessons"

From his folk opera Lillian.  Ben and I braved the summer heat to shoot a few one-off's in Prospect Park yesterday afternoon.  I think the results were worth the effort.  I have a few more of these to put up in the coming weeks.  You can follow Ben HERE.
