salutations & good news.

I suppose I should begin by introducing this blog.

This blog will be dedicated to anything and everything music-related. Just like creative freedom, there is no limit to what will be discussed here. Feel free to respond and share your thoughts, criticisms or ideas. Not everybody will agree with what I say or think. Not everybody will agree with what you say or think. But if everyone kept their thoughts to themselves, no one would be challenged or encouraged to think differently.


I will be both subjective and objective, depending on the topic and artist. You will soon learn what some of my favorite bands are; however, my music interests are extremely wide spread.


I want to kick off this inaugeral post with some fantastic news!


It has been announced (according to Stefan Lessard's blog on Myspace) that Dave Matthews Band will begin recording their next album very soon. Weekly Davespeak believes recording will begin sometime in March with an album release in May or June, just in time for the summer tour. For any true DMB fans out there, I recommend Weekly Davespeak. It is a great site that contains news, fan forums, mp3 recordings from almost any show and other media.
Relating to Dave Matthews Band news, I'd like to introduce my blogger audience to Yukon Kornelius. Stefan Lessard's side project. This cover band consists of Ed Robertson of the Barenaked Ladies, Adam Gardner of Guster, Eric Fawcett of N.E.R.D. and of course, Stefan Lessard of the Dave Matthews Band. Yukon Kornelius has only played one show and there is no expectation for future shows (but maybe we'll get lucky). Here is a little taste:








What I'm listening to lately:
Bob Dylan, The Beatles, The Strokes, My Morning Jacket
