In this special episode, we present our Second Life acoustic performance from Oct. 27th. This is the first live set in support of Long Way From Home, and the first Lovespirals Second Life performance. By the way, the folks from PodShow Island said we had 760 listeners on their audio streams in addition to the full house watching in-game, pretty crazy! Anyway, we hope you enjoy this stripped down set, recorded directly from our mixing board.
Setlist (and links to original recordings):
“Our Nights” from Windblown Kiss (2002)
“Walk Away” from Free & Easy (2005)
“Treading the Water” from Long Way From Home (2007)

“Abide” from Free & Easy (2005)

Zack Daggy interviews Ryan Lum and Anji Bee of Lovespirals about their band history, musical process, brand new album, Long Way From Home, and more in a Shameless Plugcast Feature. He’s also doing an autographed CD contest – see his site for details!
Come join Anji Bee of Lovespirals on today’s RockMe. Session on Me.dium at 1pm PST! Anji will take Me.dium users on a tour of her various sites and projects online as she chats with participants. It’s a one-of-a-kind experience you won’t want to miss!
This week we explore a different kind of chillout music, focusing on American inspired dream pop, indie rock, and folk pop. Whatever you call the style, these tunes are moody, beautiful, and in some cases – pastoral. I hope you dig the slight change in vibe this show, and look forward to your comments!

I’m back in town and gearing up for the release of my new album with several Second Life events! This week is a chill mix with lots of down home style guitar, inspired by my long road trip through fields and mountains. I’ve also got the winners of the MoShang contest and news about the Beth Hirsch feature!
