Guess For Thrills / Graphic Blandishment CDs Available Now!
Hi! Its the CD version of the "Guess For Thrills" & "Graphic Blandishment" albums. Even though they look and sound very different, I have packaged these records together here because they were written and recorded at the same time, and originally released just one year apart. They're fraternal twins, just like Arnold Schwarzenegger and Danny DeVito in that movie that I've never seen, "Twins". It's a very limited edition run of professionally manufactured CDs, shrink-wrapped and everything! Just click on the photo beneath these words and you’ll be whisked away to my bandcamp page where you can very easily purchase the 2xCD and I’ll personally mail it you. CDs?!? Mail?!? What is this, a different year from before instead of now??

February 2020 tour Dates with Star Parks!
Due to the fact that we’re very brave, we’re headed up north at the end of February! We’ll be a duo for this trip, with myself - Mike Adams - on electric guitar and singing, and Jessica on electric piano. It’s been very fun preparing for these shows so far, and I’m enjoying the new Two Person arrangements of some of these old songs. We’ll also have some new merch with us, and the kids will be with their grandparents, so we’re looking to party.
