Shorthand E.P. is alive and well and living in itunes

Our E.P. is out there right now and watching everything you do. It has videos and a few different ways in which you can own it. Which is odd I suppose so let me explain.

1. Are you a picky person? or busy? or dying? If so, just buy one song. Any song. It doesn’t matter. Choose the title that sounds best and save the rest of your change for gum and shoe laces and bags of rubberbands.

2. Are you a compulsive? A completist? My parents? If so, buy the whole album. And as an added bonus you’ll have your hands full with videos for every single song on the album. Kind of like the toy at the bottom of the cereal box. Only less functional. The videos are brand-new-never-been-seen-before.

P.S. all of these videos were filmed by a director/producer duo known as Hott Garbage. They are a fine set of young gentlemen who put up with an unending weekend of farm animals, abandoned opera houses questionable behavior in quiet suburbs and cold lasagna mixed with milk and spinach and salt. So if you’re looking at them right now, please extend a pat on the back for us. Because we’re currently not on speaking terms.

Oh. And a new album is being made.

And there are a few performances lined up with Cloud Cult.

And our Daytrotter session has been posted! For those of you wondering, Jon’s teeth are exactly like that in real life. There are three of them and they are all circular.

As for Austin, we had swans living in our hotel. It was disgusting.

heeeeeeeeeeeeeey

“Traveling Men (The Pond)”

if you DON’T receive it by Tuesday

with your email address
and we will fix that

hope you enjoy the song
AND
thank you muchly for helping expose the seedy underbelly of music on the internet

the seedy underbelly is the easiest part to stab with a spear
if you are in battle with it

my posts are getting spotty
i’m coming apart at the seams
and all the marshmallow fluff inside is coming out
and that attracts ants
which upsets the cleaning lady
who knocks over the lamp
(in anger)
which sets the drapes alight
and eventually alerts the fire department
who comes and sprays the house
which makes me get soaked
which only makes the marshmallow fluff get oozy and come out faster
which attracts more ants…
