Ever here of Emily Coates.
Naturally you should.  
She had a constant secret in her mouth and she sowed it to her soul.
She had her mother's tiny hands, they were full of small regret.
And her mother's violet lips, her father noticed this.
In the autumn she would run, her hair was golden brown.
And every word that she said came from her mother's mouth.
Her mother's soul remained to shine, stained upon her brow.
And when her eyes would open wide, this drove her father 
mad...
"don't wake the devil if he's sleeping.
Emily's secret is in the ground.
but if you wake the devil, hide your mother.
and take Emily into town".

We are approaching the end of our time at Tiny Telephone.
Its been a blast.  Jay our engineer is one of coolest...he's some kind of shaman i know it.
We are mastering this little baby in the next few and it should be ready soon.  
We are thinking about calling it a decent animal eats itself.

We are recording. 
We started one week ago at Tiny Telephone here in SF.
Its a great place full of wonderful things and its going swimmingly.
We decided to record a full length some time ago and just got a little delayed is all. Recording started on the 12th and its been rad.  Playing with Ben and Johnny is killer. We have breathed new life into a couple of old songs and written some new ones that I'm really excited about.  We decided to put it out with the old and the new just to get us back on track. Richard and I have wanted to record most of these songs for quite some time and now its almost done. Mixing started yesterday and we will have it ready for mastering by Friday.  We are already working on the next one and with winter coming...ha...its gonna be a good 'un.
