The latest “indie edition” of the legendary Coverville podcast includes Lovespirals‘ rendition of the classic American Spiritual, “Motherless Child.” Ryan and I met Brian Ibbott at the Podcast and New Media Expo last year, where I was accepting an award for my work with the ShowGirls podcast. I slipped him a pre-release copy of our Long Way From Home CD, which he was very enthusiastic about, but what with one holiday after the other these past few months… well you know how these things go. We’re just stoked to make our 2nd appearance on this seminal podcast!
Ryan and I will be attending the New Media Expo for our 2nd year. I suppose most people don’t think of Ryan as a podcaster, but he is my co-host on the Chillin’ with Lovespirals: Insights of an Indie Band podcast. CC and Karen have both commented on his great voice, which I find to be quite distinct. But even if you don’t recognize his voice, you can’t possibly miss the 6′ 5″ guy with really long hair and exotic baby face wandering around with me. Come up and say “hi” to us, we’re quite friendly and we will have copies of our brand new CD with us, which we’ll be happy to autograph and sell you for the low low Expo price of just $10.00. 😀 We’ll be at the ExtemePods & RumorGirls party tonight, so if you’re going — we’ll see ya there!

BTW, how did I miss John Mayer’s version of “Chocolate Rain”???
Ooh, it’s a bedcast! I chat about recent events such as Lovespirals being on the Projekt 200 3-CD boxed set, the Anji Bee CD Store, watching David Lynch’s Twin Peaks – The Second Season DVDs, designing the Long Way From Home digipac (and stuff distracting me from that), Mojitos on the beach, ShowGirls‘ surprising Podcast Awards win, my big LinkShare check, and more. Features Lovespirals’ “Motherless Child (MoShang’s No Place Like Home Mix)” from MoShang’s brand new Asian Variations Remix CD.
BTW, I went out and bought the Mbox Mini after recording and it kept kernal panicking my laptop so it looks like I’m taking it back to GuitarCenter for the FastTrack Pro. Anyone using that?
