From Day 8.1 of Janetpalooza:  Hoax Hunters

At Strange Matter, RVA. 8 Mar 2012

In honor of International Women’s Day, they decided to cover a song “by a couple of awesome women.”  If only I had realized what they were doing sooner and started recording faster!  Here’s their cover of “Papyrus” by the Blue Rajas.

Peaceful protest 2/20/12

riotfist:

I put this up before from an mp3. A friend took a cd of my spoken word crap that we recorded in a friends studio  and made music for a couple of them. This is one of them. A trip-hop oriented thing that I was not expecting when he showed it to me. My favorite track called James is too big of a file for tumblr to upload and has more of a rock/pink floyd/epic feel. I re-posted the song with this link because it was cool to see PJ’s (cherub records owner) take on me in the description. I got a kick out of it. PJ was wide open himself with what he would put out there on his label and very supportive of anything at least trying to be creative.
