Not really any other news to report on the right through front. Still planning on releasing those new recordings at some point soon. Rob and Cole are going out on tour with Greg in October; Alan's doing his last year of high school and being a superstar tennis player; and me, I'm trying to learn latin for some dumbass reason. The future is a blurry and compelling place. Goodnight.

ABCs of rock and roll: Always Be Cruising

We recorded a couple songs last week at mid-ocean studios. It was kind of a last minute thing, but it went really well! The folks at mid-ocean are all super nice and knowledgeable and it was an all around good experience. The plan is that the songs will be released sometime soon; not sure of how exactly we will do that (the idea of a cassette single was briefly discussed)... Maybe there'll be a 'release' show sometime at the end of summer.

In other news, both Cole and I are heading out on our own tours of the mid-East this August: Cole with the Cannon Bros. and me with my solo stuff. Check out my dates HERE and Cole's HERE. Seee ya.

There is the poster for our show next week. And HERE is the facebook event.

Newss

Hey, so Cole's on a tour of eastern Canada playing in G mac's backing band!!! Check out the dates here: http://www.myspace.com/macphersonband. It's pretty wild. When Cole and I first started playing together Greg's music was a big point of reference. In fact, during the first show Cole and I ever did we played a cover of "weak" off Good Time Coming Back Again... That was at the label gallery on portage; great venue, too bad it's a UPS store now... Anyways, I see Greg's records as being pretty integral to what we're doing with Right Through, and it's really exciting that Cole is playing with him... Really exciting!!

In other news, we're working on putting together a show in late June for when Cole gets back. We'll be opening for a cool band I had the pleasure of playing with last weekend: Brothers. They're really tight and high energy and stuff, both really excellent at their instruments as well. Fun stuff to see live. More news about that soon. Here's a video to make this more interesting:

RRCC

Our friend Mirella caught some footage of us with her phone! Thanks Mirella!

This one's called 'burial':

'heavy metal'

and here's a brand new, untitled one:

Phelps

Well it seems that every second post on here is silkworm related... but whatever. I recently found this blog that has a bunch of Joel R.L. Phelps albums for download. Really good stuff. His records are criminally impossible to find.

Blackbird is probably the best, the song "blessed salt lake" is fantastic. He's got a really neat voice and sense of melody. Sometimes his delivery can be a little over-bearing, but the more I listen to it the more I like it. He seems really sincere and intense, which makes for much more interesting listening than overly-cautious music. Rock and roll should be about taking risks and stuff...

Speaking of rock and roll and risk taking:
