Nearly finished songs shaping up for Album No. 2! These are Nathan’s handwritten chord and lyric sheets for each song. Anyone who’s worked with Nathan knows how much he loves his organizational charts :)
Yes, today is my Jesus Birthday.
And I didn’t think I liked mustard until I tried mustard in France. Which I smuggled back in my luggage.
Nathan and Katie at our picnic in The Garden for Nathan’s Jesus Birthday. And the delicious french mustard.Happy Birthday Nathan……
Nathan’s Birthday is today!!
People & Leaves (Live) at Thanet House, UK.
This is the first in a series of videos I worked on with Scubaboy for (Chris Mears’ band) New Volunteer a few months ago in England. Mearsy wanted to capture the band in a small room so we loaded everyone in to the breakfast dining room at Andy & Anna’s wonderful B&B to shoot for the day. Armed with about 8 digital & tape cameras (maybe 10 if you include phone cameras) we spread out around the dining room with friends and crew perched amongst the musicians.
This is the first single from the album Remote Control Parade that I produced with Mearsy in Denver and Bournemouth.
Also, check out Scubaboy’s other killer videos (especially the one for UNKLE) on his vimeo site.
Thanks to Nathan Johnson and Scubaboy!!!!!

Fabric shopping for the handmade covers that will be the Deluxe Edition of Katie’s new album.
“Kids” cover by MGMT (a little noisy, but you can get the idea). We performed this opening for Gretel during their cd release show at the Lizard Lounge.
