Thanks to Todd Zeller at EdenZ films, I am now the excited owner of a music video. Anyone can watch it on youtube. Check it out---
I'm hoping that this promotional video, complete with concert footage, still photos and a voiceover by me blabbering about my musical life, will be the tool that enables me to get a bunch of gigs at music festivals far and wide. Time to crank up the marketing machine. Oh wait, I don't really have one of those. Fact is, if there's one aspect of the music scene for which I have little stomach or patience, it's the business side of things. Which is why my gigging schedule has been replaced lately by my other commitments---representing poor people in court, trying to develop sustainable, affordable housing, stuff like that. All of which takes time.
This is NOT a complaint because, damn, I'm a lucky guy with a pretty fine life. But if I could change one thing, it would be that the world of music was a more welcoming, accessible place. Maybe with this video, the tiny little crack in that door will get a touch wider.
