After such an obvious lapse between posts, reality has smacked on the forehead: it looks like I'll probably have time to update ye olde blog only when I have music news related directly to my personal work. My hopes of maintaining a constantly-updated, award-winning music blog have now been relegated to the much more practical realm of: one giant press release of and about me!
I guess this is my way of saying: don't come to Scrimshaw looking for the latest breaking news in the music world. I set my sights too high and wanted to bring you a blog of quality and substance, but these days all I really have time to do is keep a small journal of my recent jobs. Life has a way of interrupting even the best laid blog drafts. And I wanted to tell it to you straight.
So, speaking of music news (*coughs*), I have a new piece in Seattle Weekly about the Young Fresh Fellows. This a Seattle based group that's been on the scene for over 25 years, a band that skirted the punk scene of the early '80s, rode out the grunge invasion and provided a good deal of context for tons of area bands. They have a new album out - their first in almost 10 years - and it was produced by Robyn Hitchcock. There's a good story here! Read all about it: Not So Young, Still Fresh.
