Twit Flick

Not important, but I'll be deleting my Twitter and Flickr accounts at the end of the month. So if we're connected there, I'll be dumping both. Plenty other ways to stay in touch.

Another SVENGOOLIE feature!

Posted by Soda on December 19, 2022 at 9:55 PM

CHECK IT OUT! Another piece of my nerdy artwork was featured on Svengoolie. I doodled a mash-up of Sven and Kerwyn and it was on Saturday night's show (12.17) "The Invisible Agent" - I also sent in a candle 4 years ago and it's still on the set. An honor for sure. Thanks Svengoolie and MeTV - Keep making people happy!

Here's a screencap direct from the show:



Steppin' out "solo" before the year ends

Posted by Soda on November 15, 2022 at 6:00 PM

Happy Holidays everybody (yea, I said that) - As you may know (if ya follow), I don't do too much in the way of "solo" outings currently. My main musical focus is my band, Coventry Carols. But, before the year is out I'll be doing two Sodacentric events outside of the band. I'm thrilled to be a part of them. AND, it's not music stuff which makes me even happier honestly as I like to have my toes dipped in lots of different stuff as often as I can. You can find the information in the EVENTS section of the page. Please keep up with Coventry Carols as we also have two awesome shows in December to end the year with. And hey, thanks for being here if you are. I'm real grateful. X

It is Bandcamp Friday - surprise! Coventry Carols first single is ready for you!

Posted by Soda on March 4, 2022 at 3:40 AM

So, yup, it’s BC Friday, which means bands get all their scratch without BC taking a cut. We are thrilled to release our debut single, “The Well” from our forthcoming album. We wanted it to be special so made it a bit of a maxi-single type release. Next Friday, 3/11, the single will be available on your favorite digital/streaming/etc. platforms. For the first week, it will live on Bandcamp only. We hope you check it out, it means a lot to us. Keep an eye on our sites and socials as we spill the beans on more music, shows, merch and beyond.
