Shows at Timbre

This week my friend Nii and I have been playing music at Timbre music spots around Singapore, and really enjoying the collaboration. It has really been a fantastic week - seeing old friends and making new ones, and having a blast on stage. Here's some footage (thanks Ben Low!) of 'Play Switch', performed on Tuesday at Timbre's Substation venue. Nii really brings the African percussion to this performance - so sweet!

Timbre Music Academy

This week I'm playing a few shows at Timbre, a music venue with a few different locations around Singapore. Timbre books artists (they organized the Rock and Roots festival which will be bringing such great artists as Bob Dylan, John Legend, and Imogen Heap here in April), does some management and promotion, and also instructs students in the finer points of music and performance. Here I take a tour of the academy with Mung - you can find out more about them at the academy website.

A New Song from the upcoming Album

I had a great time at home for the holidays, getting to see lots of friends and family and spending some relaxing days on the couch. Speaking of the couch, I recorded a video while I was relaxing, of a song that will be on the new album. It's called 'This Lamp' and is the story of an old abandoned house, told from the house's point of view.

One of my favorite parts of the video is how you can watch the sunlight disappear as the sun sets outside the window. Check it out below.
