Thank you for a very nice set at a very local bistro in Prague – everyone was so gracious and appreciative. Only a few spoke English – and so once again music is the universal means of communication. I will return!

Antic Clay in Prague
17 August 2018
I’m very excited to play my second solo show in Europe – tonight at Bistro U Veselé Kozy. This, like last December in Budapest, will be a humble acoustic show, as it’s really just coordinated by European friends on my way to a business trip in Denmark. Once the next album is released however, I have absolute ambitions to do a proper tour, with other players, promotion and multiple cities. Meanwhile, if you happen to read this and can come out, or recommend to a Czech friend that they attend, that would be swell.
Set list tonight will likely include many covers, as this looks to be a patio-style gig (rather than a dedicated Antic Clay show). I always hope to please a crowd in that atmosphere, and that typically involves playing some songs they’ll recognize. So I’ll probably include some Johnny Cash, Leonard Cohen and such. Once I return from Europe, my next focus is on the actual recording of Broom of Fire, for which I plan to raise funds and lay down tracks in Los Angeles. Best to all, and keep in touch!

Antic Clay in Prague 17 August 2018
“The latest publication of Black Needle Noise is the video clip of ‘Who Which Watches’. Employing noir aesthetics and combining dark and country sounds, the song is particularly interesting.”
Another interesting collaboration, this time with Antic Clay. John Fryer’s Black Needle Noise project is certainly not unknown to you. Once in a while, this producer releases a song that is more or less interesting to the name of the music scene. Tracks run out of bandcamp and can be downloaded for free (you can find them here). The latest collaborations with a musician, called Antic Clay, is a renowned protagonist of the American genre in Sweden (which could be approached by the ignorant as a “dark Gothic country”). The song “That Which Watches” has also touched a video clip and brings with it the darkened melodic genre of the singer, to see the black and white video you can find here:

Yes, it could be approached by the ignorant. ( ;-{>
