I recently activated a reverb nation profile, uploading a total of 30 tracks from 3 releases. It's always great to find a new and useful tool for independent music.

These tracks are available worldwide for purchase & download at the usual digital outlets.

The first 5 songs are previously unreleased soundtracks.

Enjoy!

TALL SHADOWS are playing FRIDAY APRIL 3rd

at THE BLARNEY STONE, SF

Hola, people of the internet... it was great to see so many folks at the Brainwash last saturday. I'm glad that our friend John Predny helped arrange to have them regularly through 09.... A new album I mixed & mastered, Andy Mason - Stories Told, is available Available Now!!!!worldwide on Last Stop Records!!! Please, let me invoke you to pick up a copy today... Preview it with tons of other tracks on my mp3 player... I am really looking forward to the release of "Dave G EP " I know you are gonna like it... we recorded it late last year and it should be coming out shortly. I might put out a disc of my own music as well... or i might not but i am writing and recording a lot of music... you are able to enjoy a dozen or so things on this page and others... Tall Shadows are in full swing rehearsals for this years calendar... We have a bunch of gigs lined up this year and it would be great if you came out to check it out... first time at 7 Mile House and at the Blarney Stone, plus Fort Mason Center, for Drew Academy, which is gonna be super cool... so yeah, it would be great if you and all our friends packed the dance floor at Johnny Foley's on Feb 21st and started dancing on the tables to AC/DC songs!!!!! Dosen't that sound like fun... almost as much as going to los angeles with fleeting trance and watching You Tube...

Hey folks. i'm very pleased about how things are shaping up right now...I think the coming year is going to be better than the last. I'm hearing a lot of great music, recently recording projects with Jack Luna, Maddaline Edstrom, John Loshuertos, Jacopo, Coexist and John Predny at Muscat Sound. Upcoming releases on Last Stop Records include Andy Mason, Dave Gursom, Moonbunnies!!! Plus, I'm officially kicking some dust off the Harwick's Holiday Hijinks CD - available soon, through the usual digital outlets. Yet, the coolest thing is that we have booked a series of dates for Last Stop Records Artist Showcase at Brainwash in SF. First show, Dec 12th with John Predny, Scotty Rock n Roll and Andy Mason. Tall Shadows are out playing shows and gearing up for a busy 2009. Catch us this year at Masses in Walnut Creek, Dec 6th.

Hey folks. How's it goin? Summer 2008. oh what a season....i've been busy... recently finished tracking my 3rd release as a singer/songwriter, the ghost of electricity is in final tweak mode. I recorded the 11 song disc with Tall Shadows/Fleeting Trance bandmates drummer Daren Wilkerson and guitarist Scott Robertson with a special appearence by Manny Bernal, who plays the trumpet and sings on Please Don't... i sang, played bass, acoustic and electric guitars, keys and piano... Scott did most of the harmonies and guitar parts. Check out Please Don't and Somehow Complicated posted on myspace.

In addition to the ghost of electricity record in 2008, AJM is producing the new PHIL VOID album "LIVING THE DREAM" out before christmas. Plus, I am proud to announce completion of JAMES COLLEY's 2nd record - Dive Bar Sing-a-Longs out soon on Last Stop.....Check out the video I edited for "TAKE ME HOME" - it has some shots from the studio when we did basic tracks mixed in with footage from an expressions college web cast.

TALL SHADOWS are preparing to come back on the scene and yet still, I enjoy the privilege of playing keyboards with FLEETING TRANCE ... but nothing makes me happier than to know I lived long enough to see this day! The very first PHIL VOID record delusions of the pampered is complete. The album has 12 songs and is currently available through cdbaby and the usual digital outlets...

Yep, I made a few videos to go along with the new release.

"No One's Listening" is a dramatic piece kinda twisted and manic with all the armageddon, back stabbing and all around paranoid imagery..

"Clever Alien" on the other hand is a complete butchary of the american classic "the day the earth stood still" i just couldn't help myself when i found the footage on youtube and in a few hours i had posted a rough draft before tweaking it to the piece posted here.

I have an mp3 player set-up so that you can listen to stuff when you are online. Click on the boombox and the player will open in a seperate window and you can listen to over 200 songs from the Last Stop Records discography while you are browsing...
