Okie Dokie Smokies, hope everyone's been soldiering through this steamy weather without too much discomfort. I had the excellent fortune of spending most of last month's oppressive heat wave in the cool and temperate (seriously) Rocky Mountains and Northeastern New Mexico. There's nothing like enjoying 80 degree weather and occasional downpours in a desert while hearing about 110 degree heat indexes back East (just thought I'd rub that in a bit...even saw some snow in the mountains). Not to mention, nothing compares to being someplace away from the ubiquitous light pollution of the east coast and simply looking up at night and seeing thousands of stars, the milky way, shooting stars, the works. OK, enough of that...
So, as the release date for "Argyle Johansen and his Inner Demo(n)s" EP nears (that's Sept. 6, 2011 if you haven't marked your calendar), we're pleased as pie to share with you the second single off the EP, "You Try." It's a song about debts - public, private and personal - so hopefully it's something we can all relate to. You can give it a listen on the Soundcloud media player at your right. I've jumped right back into playing with a little guest spot this evening at The Delancey with my friends This Way to the Egress. I have another solo show coming up this Friday at Tommy's Tavern in Greenpoint, Brooklyn. The set time is tba but will probably be late. Check Facebook for details.
Also, for those of you not following Argyle on Facebook or Twitter you've been missing out on my weekly Youtube series where I play solo acoustic renditions of the songs off the EP as well as a few oldies and some covers. Most of the videos can be found on fb/twitter, or just scroll through 'em on the right here for a nice concise listing. Feel free to leave comments on youtube or facebook if you like what you see.
Lastly, the Brooklyn cd release show is confirmed for Thursday, September 8th at the lovely (and free) venue Bruar Falls located in scenic and hip Williamsburg, Brooklyn. Stay tuned for more details, a flier, and hopefully a few more area shows.
xoxo
