My first album, Needle Bed, was made with the help of some friends in 2005. Then I re-released Needle Bed on June 6, 2006 with Vagrant, with whom I also partnered for my second album Sorry, Vampire. White Spiders EP and a UK tour came next. Since then, I have been battling. Winning and losing. But, in the end, I was able to make a beautiful album with some of my closest friends in the world. That album is called Shadows of the Summertime. Life is beautiful like that. In the words of Beckett, “I can’t go on. I’ll go on.” I also just released a vinyl single “Jesus Christ” b/w “A Marigny Xmas” with some new friends at 24 Hour Service Station. Wheels are turning. Good vibrations.
Both Needle Bed and Sorry Vampire are very good as well.
