The Sky Road is done!

Dear blog reader,

A couple items of business.  After months of writing, arranging, recording, mixing, mastering, and designing, The Sky Road is now available for purchase.  I’m so happy with the way it sounds and looks and am grateful for the many talented people who helped make it, especially my most immediate collaborators, John Kengla, Jason Loughlin and Rob Heath aka Radio Gold.  I will be selling The Sky Road at shows and planning a party/release show for late spring/early summer so stay tuned for details on that.

Next Friday, March 23rd, the band and I will be playing at Pete’s Candy Store in Brooklyn at 9pm.  It’s a free show and it’s a Friday night.  Come listen and hang out!

Finally, I’m excited to announce the launch of a brand new Jessie Kilguss website.  Effective immediately.  Check it out. Isn’t it beautiful?!  Here, you can find music, pictures, info on shows and, of course, my blog.

Hope to see you next Friday.

Love

Jessie

Art Start benefit party this Friday 9/30/11

What’s goin on, Reader? 
You’ve probably heard me talk ad nauseam about Art Start at some point.  It’s an amazing organization that I’ve been volunteering with for the past three years, helping to teach art & music workshops to kids in homeless shelters.  Art Start provides a vital outlet for the kids they serve and I love volunteering with them.  I’m also excited that I’ll be performing with my band at their benefit party this Friday night.  It’s at Manny’s on Second: 1770 Second Ave.  The event starts at 8pm and I’ll probably be performing sometime around 10pm.  If you can’t make it to the event but would still like to support Art Start, you can do so online through their website: http://art-start.org/support/donate/
Also, Bill Cosby is hosting their next fundraiser at Town Hall on Oct. 13th.  Who doesn’t like Bill Cosby!

PS  I’m attaching another picture from my Ireland trip.  It’s the edge of the cliff ( 300 ft drop) near Dun Angus on Inish Mor.

Recording in Ireland


Dear blog reader(s?),
This past summer I was busy co-writing a whole bunch of new songs with my band, Radio Gold (John Kengla, Rob Heath and Jason Loughlin). A couple weeks ago we all traveled to remote Moate, Ireland where we recorded these songs at the incredible Grouse Lodge Recording Studio (http://grouselodge.com/content.php?ID=1). This was an amazing experience. Grouse Lodge is situated in the middle of the beautiful Irish countryside. Its visionary owner, Paddy Dunning, transformed 275-year-old, crumbling farm buildings into a state of the art recording studio where the likes of Michael Jackson, Muse and Snow Patrol have all worked. This experience was truly spectacular and I’m extremely grateful for it. I’m also excited about these new songs. I really love them and hope you will too. We’ll be playing them tomorrow night in Philadelphia at Lickity Split at 10pm. If you’re in the area, swing by. I’m posting a picture of my band and me at Grouse Lodge, along with our wonderful engineer, Fintan Moore.
