“Take Me Away” [a non-iPhone video]

I bid you all a good Thursday, wherever you are in the world.

It’s a new day, and that means (today) a new video.

This is another one of the non-iPhone videos that my friend Nate and I captured a couple of months ago.

Same as last time:  one take, and mistakes included.

If you haven’t heard the recorded version of this song before, feel free to go to the music page to find your way to a few minutes of listening.  If you haven’t heard the story behind the song, go here to get the gist.

Again, thanks for all your support for me and this music.  I’m looking to carve out some time to work on new stuff, which is looking to be very different than Stand[by].  I’m beyond okay with that.  No need to force anything.  Recording a new project sometime in 2012 is a goal of mine.

Feel free to share with all who have the ability to enjoy it.  I won’t be mad at you.

Have a great rest of your week!

There are learning opportunities on perspective everywhere it seems.

What’s something that gave you some good perspective lately?

Remember, whatever season you’re in…there is enough time.  Don’t rush it.

A new season will come.

Welcome to the new site!

Welcome, one and all!

If you’re here, then you’ll probably notice some major changes around here (If you’re reading from a RSS feed, go to the site and check out the changes).

First of all, many thanks to Shawn Landis, who really did a great job on the look and feel of the site.  Also, follow him on twitter.

Saturday was the one year mark of the release of my debut EP, Stand[by].  When I started the old blog, I didn’t have any music to call my own.  So, I didn’t think of having any clear domain name to simply point people to the music.  After telling folks “contentunderpressure.net” a dozen or so times, I realized that I better think of something else.  So, combine that fact, along with my recent job change and you get what you see today.  I’m excited about all of the changes.

Here are some changes to note:

1.  It looks different, eh?  That’s because Shawn did an awesome job customizing my old theme.  Feel free to browse all the pages.

2.  If you go to ‘Music’ you’ll see ways to purchase the EP, whether it be CDs, iTunes, or Bandcamp.  My Bandcamp page is a new addition.  You can listen to the entire EP without purchasing.  Tracks are a buck each, or you can get all 6 tracks for $5.  That’s cheaper than iTunes, folks.

3.  ’Shows.’  This page is empty, and that’s because it needs you to see about getting me to play at your venue, church or college.  :)

Browse around and let me know your thoughts.

And, new blog posts coming soon.  Hope you stick around.

Moving: [Announcement]

Happy weekend, folks.

I wanted to let you all know on this fine day that this site will soon be moving to new digs.

I started this blog almost two years ago, and, although my posting has been fairly moderately horribly erratic it’s grown fairly well.

Then last year and Nashville happened.

Questions of “do you have a blog?” turned into “where can I find your music?  Do you have a website?”  Telling them contentunderpressure.net didn’t really roll of the tongue easily.

So, we’re moving. 

You’re all invited.
Your friends and family are invited.
Heck, your pets are invited…except cats.  I reserve the right to screen them first.

The new site will still include this blog, including all past content.  However, it will be  easier to communicate to folks as I dig more into sharing my music.  I’m excited to be able to have the best of both worlds.

Oh, and that new site will be found here.  It’s currently up, but still in construction to some extent.

Feel free to take a sneak peek at it!

For you who subscribe to this blog, you need to do nothing.  I will be updating that on my end for you all.

That’s about it for now.  I’ll update more in the comments as this page screeches to a halt soon.

Hope you’re doing something fun this week, and spending time with those you love.
