Who Stole the Kishka?

Who DID steal the kishka? Ukrainia have been asking for years!!

These guys are ridiculously fun. And talented. They drink like fish, and they sing like Cossaks! They rival Gogol Bordello in energy and passion onstage. Really, I can't think of a time when I've had more fun with a live show.

ANYWAYS. They asked me to design their newest album! I was given the pressing (you'll have to wait for June to get yer paws on it) a few weeks ago, and it looks AMAZING!!! I'll post the album art closer to the release, but for now, go to their website and listen to their other stuffs at http://www.ukrainia.org and know that the new album is slightly heavier and more epic. It's called The Maiden, and is really an exciting and fresh look at modern Ukrainian tunes!!

Night of the Living Dead 2010: Report Card A+!

I know, again, this is a late post. BUT the Night of the Living Dead LIVE 2010 show went off without a hitch! 2 sold-out shows, great audience interaction and reaction, a few people came dressed to the hilt as zombies! The strings from the NAC orchestra were amazing, the sound effects were so vivid, and the voices resonated with the audience!! We all hit our marks, and both nights were a success! Thanks to everyone who came and supported live, strange ideas!

And more good news about the production...we are performing it for 2 nights at Bluesfest in Ottawa! Same approach, same players, just moving the venue to the theatre in the War Museum onsite. Here's a link to the shows themselves!

And here's a strange photo of the NAC strings in action.



The shows are on July 16-17 at Ottawa's Bluesfest. Sure to be a riot!! Hope to see you there! Oh, and there just might be a BIG NAME special guest there!!
