I loovvvee this one!!!  It’s super fun.  It’s a remix of the Ting Ting’s song “That’s Not My Name.”  Check it out & let me know what you think!!  Here’s the link.

Here’s the link to a new track called “A Night Like This.”  You can either stream the song or download it using the link.   It’s real chill and most people seem to like the lyrics.  Let me know what you think about it :-)!

FarFromParis.com happens to be my sister’s blog but, honestly, even if it wasn’t I would still love it.  It’s about music, art, fashion and culture.  She’s a young woman in her 20’s living in Chicago, and she has her own style and unique taste.  She’s always up to date on the latest artists, writers and musicians coming up through the indie scene and she has some pretty intersting things to say.  But maybe I’m bias, so you should check it out yourself and see what you think!  Here’s the link.

BTW - how great a name is FarFromParis??!!  I love it.

Our website, ReelLifeRecords.com, is now officially live.  Please check it out!!  You’ll find information on myself, Unemployed, Parker Sawyers, Kiko, and ReelLife.  Here’s what you’ll find on the home page -

ReelLife Records is so much more than an independent music label.  It’s an idea, daring to challenge convention and step outside of the box.

Instead of settling for desk jobs and the same old boring daily routines, we dare to make great music that is different and new.  Music with a new sound and new concepts that people will love and find relatable.  Our aim is to accomplish these goals by blending different genres of music and speaking from the heart and not being afraid to try new things creatively.

Instead of waiting for a major label to come find us, we dare to create our own label and interact with our fans on a more personal level.  In an age where the music industry as we know it is rapidly changing, we dare to charge full steam ahead undaunted by the lofty tasks set before us.  Instead of settling for the hand we’ve been dealt, we create our own reality.

*Special thanks to my brother for all his help with the site!!

This is one of my favorite songs of all time.  Nirvana’s cover of it is called “Where Did You Sleep Last Night?” but it also goes by “In the Pines” and “Black Girl.”  It’s an old song that’s been around since the mid-to-late 1800’s.

I love this clip because Kurt Cobain starts to zone out and gets lost in the music, then around the 4:40 mark he opens his eyes and you can see a look of intensity in them and then he goes back into the music.  To me, it’s an incredible moment.  It happens very quickly but knowing his story it really makes me wonder what was going on in his head at that exact moment, if anything at all.
