it is my unique pleasure to introduce you to my new band called Bury Me A Lion - specifically to sam einhorn, jarett gilbert, and luca pironti. now we’ve been working real hard over the last few months to create music - both new and good - and i think the other guys would agree with me, when i say it has been both a struggle and, coming from a man who appreciates some healthy productive tension, a lot of fun. i’m extraordinarily happy with the music we’re playing and for those of you who have been getting these updates from me for some time now, i hope you enjoy our performances of my songs - i’d love to hear what you think.

we have our first big new york city show this friday night at The Bitter End. you’re attendance is requested, desired, and necessary to make the evening be what these evenings can sometimes turn out to be.

btw - we recorded a few demo tracks and put them up on the interwebs for you to partake in: www.myspace.com/burymealion

and lastly, telly and i also wanted to thank everybody who came out to the Middle East in Boston last month…it was a super-shindig and a rainy-evening-riot smashed together…although we don’t have any shows coming up, we still have some surprises in store for you…
