My band recently played our first show in AGES (due to training up a new drummer) on 2/22/12 at The Know, Portland's favorite dive bar and awesome punk rock venue. The house was PACKED, so many of you came out on a Wednesday night! Here's one of the songs we played. Huge thanks to Brian Brewer for putting this video together.

TOASTED
My band Monster-Sized Monsters is all over the soundtrack for this stoner comedy "TOASTED" set in 1996 as an unaired web series pilot. Check it out, and you'll hear bits of a dozen or so of our songs all throughout the show!

And now for a post about music...
Switching gears from film for a minute here... My band Monster-Sized Monsters has officially announced our new drummer: Chad Sixkiller. We are excited to have him on board. He is bringing a new dynamic, full sound to the band and we think this will be a very good direction for us. We also were written up in SSG Music as one of 10 Portland bands to watch for! Check out the article here! Here's an excerpt:
Finally, tomorrow (Dec 23) my cover band (The Cover Girls) is playing the Ash St. Saloon. The Cover Girls is a nostalgic punk/rock cover band, we play classic punk influenced songs from the 70s, 80s and 90s. I play the drums. So if you're looking to catch some subculture vibes tomorrow night, come on out! I think we are opening the show so come early. 7pm or so. Portland, OR. Downtown at 2nd and W Burnside. 21+ Probably a cover... $5 or less.
Happy Holidays!
"Proving once again that rock and roll is not a boys-only club, Monster-Sized Monsters fuse the early-nineties, Riot Grrrl punk rock aggression with a bit of the modernized, danceability that has been borrowed from the post-punks by such bands as the Kills and le Butcherettes. If MSM keeps their nose to the grind and finds the right audience, I could really see them going places." -Nick Hilden, SSG Music

MSM Music Video!
It's taken years for my band Monster-sized Monsters to get to this point and we do not intend to stop. We have learned everything we know by trial and error, feeling, and the internet, and have come a long way. Kicking off the future (meaning a new album and a California tour next month) is our first ever music video! Directed and edited by the fantastic Mr. Fee. Please check it out.
More to write about soon!!

Music video here, music video there...
In the last couple weeks I've shot two different music videos.
The first is for the band Ramona Falls. The crew was awesome. It was demanding but that's how it always goes, right? Directed by Cullen Hoback.
The second was for my own band Monster-Sized Monsters. Again I worked with Ben Fee who directed and will edit it. It was my bandmates' (Hannah Armstrong and Calum Barrick) first time really doing any sort of filming. I think they enjoyed themselves (most of the time)!
Both of these projects are in their post production phase, and when they are cut I will of course post the videos here.
In other news... Auditions, auditions, auditions.... maybe those will lead somewhere!
Until then!

In the Studio
Eleven hours of recording, and Monster-Sized Monsters has 6 new tracks! Now we mix, master, and shoot a music video.
Audio samples will be available eventually I promise. Right now the cuts are too rough for me to feel comfortable releasing yet.
