4/19/09 - Robert Gomez

headed to Good Records to catch Robert Gomez' cd release shindig.


i've been a fan of robert's for a while now - that dude can write some incredibly beautiful songs. was very impressed this time by the keyboard/effects guy as well - he adds an amazing amount to the sound of the band. and as always - i love the addition of the brass instruments - love that. anyways, it was a wonderful set. bought the cd. suggest you do, too.

video coming soon, hopefully...

12/3/08 - Robert Gomez, Matthew and the Arrogant Sea

went to dan's on wednesday night to catch MATAS and robert gomez.

matthew and the arrogant sea was up first, after returning from their recent tour. you know these guys are one of my favorite local bands. i cannot stress enough how much i love this band. see previous write-ups to find out why. check out their new release, "family family family meets the magic christian". you will thank me.
the robert gomez band was up next. i'd seen robert and crew a couple years ago and loved it, and wednesday night, i remembered why. that dude can write some absolutely amazing songs. he had a four-piece band that night, including keys, a french horn and a cello player. beautiful, haunting, phenomenal stuff. wish he would play around here more often.
