New music! The first new "Jude" song I've put out in a good while is premiering tonight at the end of Banshee, which is sort of like Downton Abbey but a little sexier... This is the only place to hear it until it comes out later this year on an album, so check it out, dvr it, go with God!
Oh, it's called "The One That You Really Love"

I've decided to cobble together some unfinished records and make some new recordings as well.  I'm past the point of pain from the writing, past the preciousness that keeps me from finishing songs, and past the point of thinking each track can change my life.  So, with that remarkably confident build-up, in case anyone is still out there reading this, I love you for listening, and I hope to please you with this next work.  

All I can do is try to be truthful in the songs.  My instrument (vox) ain't exactly what it used to be, but I'll try to hide that from you with magical over-tracking, just like all the cool kids do now :) 

Peace be with you.  I expect to take a month, and then maybe get it out this Spring or something, no need to wait, right? 

Now be patient and kind or I'll crawl back into my hole!  Oh, and Happy 2012.  Peace be with us all.

As most of you know - especially if you're getting this in an email alert or something, I have left this site to fallow.  If that is a word.  I know it is a word, but I mean if that is a word which means anything appropriate there....I can't recall, but I know I like it, and now refuse to look it up before it comes back to me in one of those weird picture-memories of an 8th grade vocab book.  Aaaaaanyway, i mostly make trouble over at Facebook, which is at times fun, at times educational, and at (most) times, a huge waste of energy.  But that's why we love it, right?

Here is a review of the first major something that I've worked on which you might be interested in from the last couple of years.  Oh, I've been slutting myself out to TV ever since (the critical smash) Cavemen, but even though that stuff is hard to do well, it's not really "judemusic", as we say around the shop.  This is.  Barry Munday is an indie feature written and directed by my dear friend and long-time creative compatriot, Chris D'Arienzo.  It will come out.  there will be some sort of a soundtrack.  I will be obliged to tour over it.  You will all then have the opportunity to tell me how lazy I have been. 

I miss sending you good news about music.  So here you go:  http://www.hitfix.com/blogs/2008-12-6-motion-captured/posts/sxsw-barry-munday-could-easily-be-the-festival-s-breakout-hit#.

The nicest thing I've heard all summer.  all together now, awww:

"Hello sir,

Strangely, I spent the afternoon yesterday talking with Hugh Hewitt about Michael Jackson's music.  http://hughhewitt.townhall.com/talkradio/Show.aspx?RadioShowID=5

     For whatever it's worth, my speaking voice sounds different for the first half hour or so...  oh well, maybe I'm just getting older :-)
