well, it’s been a year. as i get out of dodge to work on some other projects (including my longtime rap-duo Hush Money’s new album, and a feature film on some non-rap ish), don’t forget to pick up my official live bootleg lootbag from this summer’s tour. it’s fucking free, don’t you get it?!?!?!
download LIVE FROM THE MEATCASE HERE.

this just made my very rainy day. i’ve never played on the back of a bike trailer before, and so it was a really novel experience… but it was also cool for a couple of other reasons. for anyone who’s seen me live, you know that i like to be IN The crowd as opposed to PLAYING AT the crowd. so, it was awesome to be surrounded by a fleet of about 50 moving bikes as we rolled...

tour is over, and i’m home and scheming. the site’s been revamped, my legs keep moving. there will be a garbageface live album that documents the tour, but not sure when it’ll be out… or in what form. i was thinking of making every set available, or just the best ones, or just one complete set… i don’t know! either way, it’s going to be radtacular.

Alright, enough of that shit. I’M TOURING AGAIN with some of my favourite pals in Tiny & The Mountain doing some tunes and the great Ryan Ringer...

winter is almost upon us. and that means that pretty soon everyone’s gonna be having some serious seasonal affective disorder (AKA SAD) and motherfuckers are gonna be taking it out on each other. but for now, everyone is still feeling pretty good, and smiling at each other on the street. the days are shorter, but we’re holding on to those last rays and keeping them in our hearts… for now.

it’s official, the DOOM DOOM BOOM BOOM mini-tour has shaped up, and it’s gonna be big. my friends in ALTARUS are calling it the “Lamp of Invisible Light” tour. whatever ever you call it, don’t call it late for dinner!

the train rolls on. it’s been a really great couple of months for yr old pal garbageface. played some sweet shows (including an aneurysm inducing set at Nuit Noir II and a 6am ambient set with Gardenia), toured with buddies in Altarus, played my first show with Street Meat, and generally returned unscathed.
i’ve got a bunch of good stuff coming down the pipe, including a hot rap showcase at...

it seems like i’m always writing here at night. it’s dark outside, the wind is pirouetting and i’m sitting in the same chair again, fighting off the demons. trying to, anyway. i often wonder how long it’ll last, all of this searching and not finding. happiness is elusive. at least, for me it is. searching and not finding. round and round i go.
the tour with the TBA Collective was a lot of fun....

minor tweaks and teak furniture. am i ever home anymore? i’m curious. i’m dejected. i’m opposing forces. opposing forced.
gonna lay low for a while and just breathe. there are a couple of garbageface projects on the horizon. funny expression, eh? the thing about the horizon is you never reach it. it’s always on the horizon. so really, the projects are down the road, where converging parallel...

on the eve of another roadtrip, this time with the amazing spirits of the folks in the TBA Collective, based out of Moncton. i’ve played close to 40 shows this year, and i have to say that hooking up with that crew in moncton last summer was definitely one of the highlights. we’re going to traipse around quebec and ontario for the next five days, play some shows, and catch up. no matter where...

you know when you just feel like you need to have one of those nights where you drink until you puke? this was one of those weekends. i did what i could to feel simultaneously debauched and cleansed, intoxicating myself to the point of (almost) purging.
thursday night in streetsville was… well… streetsville. i love matt miller and his band of outside the city thugs. i got heckled quite...
