O Holy Fear (Rough Demo)

Hi friends. I have a few things going on right now that you may be interested in.

Firstly, I’ve started writing again for another new album. As you can probably tell, all of my songs have been pretty biblical and storylike lately, and this new record will reflect that and hopefully put an end to this phase. I’ve been studying a lot of weird spiritual books and religious texts this year so I guess it all finally caught up to me (I also blame Brothers Karamazov). This time I plan on recording in a real studio for once, and I hope to get some strings on a few tracks. In fact, I’m determined to.

In other news, I’m going to start pressing limited copies of God Moves On The Water very very soon. Most likely in August. They’ll come in nice little cardboard wallets and will be free at a few shows. I’m mostly doing this so I can have something nice to send to labels, magazines, blogs, etc, but I’m sure I’ll have plenty left over to hand out.

There are a few more things that I’ve been thinking about for a while, but I’ll wait to mention them in the next post. One more thing, my next show is at Burro Bar on Friday, August 26th. I’m playing with Adam Balbo and a few other extremely talented songwriters. It’s going to be a good one.

Until then, listen to a rough demo of a song I wrote a few days ago, called O Holy Fear.

Does Israel mourn in exile here?

Don’t rejoice for me brother, I’m stricken with a holy fear
