June Update

Hey hey, how’s it going? I’m avoiding packing all my gear up for band practice tonight, it’s grown into a lot of stuff which is unfortunate because I’m very, very lazy. Anyway, here’s all the news from me:

• Tickets are available for my first full band shows since 2019!

• As the 20th anniversary of I Don’t Know What I’m Doing is coming up, I asked people (on Instagram and on Facebook) to share where they found out about the album and I was blown away by the replies. It’s often a bit tough to think anything I’ve made is worthwhile at all but that gave me a much-needed boost, so thank you all for that.

• We did a live stream on May 25th which was also very encouraging, everyone was so nice. Also last stream I was recovering from Covid and basically braindead so this was a nice redemption.

• I made an AI voice replacement of Grimes singing Making Me Nervous. The future is freaky. On the one hand I don’t want my career to be ruined by machines, but on the other hand creatively it’s pretty irresistible getting to play with other people’s voices. I’m still thinking the human element will be tough to simulate but I’m also an idiot human so what do I know.

• Even though machines can do it better than my stupid brain and hands, I’ve been trying to improve my piano playing. While thinking about some ideas for Brad Sucks video games on the Brad Sucks Discord, I made a moody piano cover of Making Me Nervous for the Patreon.

• I’m working on another single release (finishing up the In Trouble demo from the Patreon). I’ve had people ask if I’m doing another album but I think I’m just gonna do singles for a while and see how that goes.

Okay, uh now I’ve run out of news and have to start packing my stuff up, wish me luck. Hope you’re all well, love y’all.
