KICKSTARTER

After several years of tirelessly arranging this collection of songs, I feel that they have arrived at their very best renditions and 'ISH ISH' is the album on which they will dwell.  The content wrestles with the gap between the truths of genocide and ethnic cleansing and the glossy portrayals of such in the media.  It seeks to unveil a shroud of deception while attempting to commemorate the memory of people who have suffered and struggled.  The dream of recording an album on a 4-track has been realized thanks to my friend, Brent Delventhal.  It will be pressed on audiophile-grade 180 gram virgin vinyl, with covers screen printed and letter pressed on recycled chipboard.

Additionally, I will be publishing a collection of 50 blind contour drawings into a book.  These new works will all portray the content and process of making, 'ISH ISH.'  Additionally, the book will include lyrics from all of the songs featured on the album and its B-sides as well as brief insights from some of my greatest friends and conspirators who have been my sources of inspiration + encouragement.  They will be printed in full color in a LIMITED EDITION of 100 copies.  To see some previously published and current work, check out the ILLUSTRATION category on this website.  Thank you for all of your support, in every way that you contribute be it financial or otherwise!
