I’m really excited to be back in the whole music scene again with all The Glowing Stars stuff, but also being immersed in just a flood of other talented musicians in the Bay Area and beyond. My friend Jonathan Mann of YouTube Song-A-Day fame, and who has also played at MacWorld 2011, will be playing a show at Sub-Mission Gallery in the Mission District of San Francisco in two weeks along with my other friend Tommy Wallach, also of YouTube fame (one of his videos was shortlisted for the Guggenheim/YouTube Play exhibition).

Also playing is Lucky Cloud, a cool band referred to me by my friend Lewis Patzner of Judgement Day (um, best local band ever?). Zach Ehrlich of Lucky Cloud is formerly of The Boticellis, and currently in a new jazz fusion band with Lewis called So.

That said, if you like good music, cool spaces, cheap drinks, and an easily accessible venue, you should come hang out with me at this show. The Sub-Mission Gallery holds a place near and dear to my heart since my old band Sputterdoll played a show there November 19, 2005 (I remember this because I made the flyer). They’ve since renovated the space, and I was just there tonight and it’s made me even more excited for this show. They now have a stage, full P.A. system, bar, and holy crap - the bartender is a sweetheart. Here are some notable videos to check out:

Jonathan Mann’s Song-A-Day #807 - Happy Birthday Lizzie Cuevas (yeah, I know)

Tommy Wallach - Charade of the Encore

See you at the show! Look these people up, because they’re awesome.
