Red Couch Covers #3 - "Lights" by Ellie Goulding

Sorry I missed last week's Red Couch Cover. I had a few health issues. But now I'm back with "Lights" by Ellie Goulding.

In Kickstarter news, we are at $1,606 with 64 hours left to go!

If you didn't have a chance to participate, there's still time left!

Kickstarter Success!

Thanks to everyone who has donated at kickstarter! We have currently raised $1,571 to help produce the first run of "Chasing the Dark!" Look for it on itunes, amazon and cdBaby on Dec. 17th. It's not too late to donate. The project doesn't close until Dec. 1st.

In other news, here is the second episode of Red Couch Covers. In episode 2, I cover Adele's "Someone Like You."

Great night at Play Cafe [YUP] :)

Here are some photos from Friday night's show!
Also in the photos are the lovely Soojin Kwon, and the awesome Hannah Shin. (Two girls I can't live without!)

I'm looking forward to our release party on Dec.17th!!

Show at Play Cafe YUP - Friday, Nov. 11,2011 @ 8PM

I will be playing a set at Play Cafe, which is a really neat new art cafe in Hongdae. It is also where we will have our CD release party next month! Come relax, have a warm beverage and enjoy this cool new place. There is no cover!

I will attach a map. But basically, go out Hongdae Station, Exit 1. Walk straight, cross the first big intersection. Then you will see a small side street on your right. (It's the next crosswalk.) Turn right and walk straight. You should see Play Cafe in front of you. You will know because you will see a fisher man sitting on the roof! That's the place.

Plus this guy, who I don't know, has lots of nice things to say about YUP :

Introducing "Red Couch Covers"

I've decided to start a new vlog called "Red Couch Covers" because it's cover songs and my couch is red. See what I did there?

Anyway, I will attempt to cover a different song and upload it each week, counting-down to the release of "Chasing the Dark" on Dec. 17th, 2011.

In episode #1, I cover "Bizarre Love Triangle" which will also be on "Chasing the Dark."

Stay tuned every week to see which song I will cover next!

"Chasing the Dark" is finally in production!

Since my last post, almost a year ago!, a lot of things have happened in my life and the lives of those around me. That being said, I had to put the dream of the album on the side for a while. But now I'm back and ready to go!

First off, the album has been shortened to an EP. It will be called "Chasing the Dark." It will look like this:



There will be five songs, in this order:

1. Tangled
2. Chasing the Dark
3. Bizarre Love Triangle
4. Last Year's Snow
5. Dreaming of New York

Are you excited yet????

Then go to kickstarter.com to donate toward my project. I'm trying to raise $1,000 to help cover the cost of producing the first run of CDs.


Wait there's more! Here is the music video for the first single, created by Kirk Fisher and Meghan Fitzgerald.

P.S. Here's one more of Soojin's drawings for the lyric book. (Just enough to get you interested.)
