Here we are playing Jigsaw on IndieATL - it was a blast!

from the Variety Review of the film Pelada:

“Crisp, colorful lensing aside, pic’s tone is set by a combination of score and script. Music selections from indie artists such as Nico Stai, Nick Ogawa and L’elan Vital give the film the infectiously upbeat energy it needs to prevent the round-the-world venture from growing monotonous.”

We’re playing on Saturday - it’s going to be a great show!

I played a show on Saturday night with Joseph Drushal on drums. We played in conjunction with the Youngblood online store launch.

Our friends Sonen played first and rocked the house, and then Ginger Collins and the Garter Girls did an awesome burlesque act. We went on and played a really fun set, some of which is captured here:

I just uploaded the song here too if you want to hear a higher quality audio version.

This song is called Jigsaw - it’s kind of a rough mix, but this is what the new cello sounds like.

This is the finished 2nd version. I did away with the frets and it sounds great. I’ll be uploading a video soon to demonstrate how it sounds.
