This song is a cover of our GREAT friend, Richard Ingersoll. He wrote this song quite a while ago and we just LOVED it. We actually played it at our LAST show in Fort Collins with Richard and it was awesome! We miss him and this is just for him!

Meet Me In Montauk COVER (Originally by Richard Ingersoll)

If you LOVE good music, then you’ll love the “Jazz / Lounge / Melodramatic Popular Song” that he makes:

Sometimes we write music that is just ridiculous. We’ve decided that we are going to post a couple of our unheard tracks here on our AYIGBLOG so you can hear them! These aren’t available anywhere else… and thats the way we like it. Yeah! Thanks!

This song was a birthday song that I wrote for my lil’ baby cousin, Fynn for his 2nd birthday. Its really just Happy Birthday recorded to a high-energy dance beat and some fun synth instruments! Have a listen!

So we’ve been really getting into this new music site we recently discovered. TheSixtyOne.com. From what we’ve found out, this is an online RPG but instead of fighting monsters or fighting creatures (like Pokemon!) and all that stuff, you listen to some really good music. Most of the music on the site seems to be emerging/indie bands but there is some more popular stuff on there also. We posted a few of our songs up there and over the course of the past week we have gotten a lot of positive feedback!

The way it works is simple. Once you’ve created a profile, you have access to a bunch of genres each with hundreds of songs from original artists (some covers too!)  You are alerted to some quests which consist of listening to a certain number of new songs, marking songs as your favorites, listening to a favorite over and over again etc. The more quests you complete the more experience you gain and the higher your level gets and the more credibility you earn as a music enthusiast! Basically its like if Pandora mated with World of Warcraft.

We’ve found that it’s really good for bands because it’s like the social aspect of Myspace but for people interested in discovering new music (as opposed to posting obnoxious pictures of themselves and spamming their friends with aps) We’ve found new favorites such as Philip Ferrari, King Tut, Go Periscope, FM BELFAST which gets our blood pumpin to dance all night!

Check out this site ASAP if you want to shake your booty while hearing some great new music at the same time! Don’t forget to give us a heart or two!

You know, when I step back and look at the way my mind works, it is really odd (and probably predictable) that my whole mind-processing is based on music and art. This is never more apparent than when I’m walking downtown and I can’t help but write songs in my head about the completely EPIC proportions of the buildings all around, or sitting in the park alone and I can actually HEAR strings playing in my mind. I know… It might be schizophrenia…
