S O L S T I C E G R E E T I N G S !

Hello  Friends -

We heard a band last night called " The Nth Degree "
and both of us were extremely  impressed by their show.
Nikki Glaspie  holds down some incredibly solid beats / grooves
and her cohort in the rhythm section on bass, just blew me away.
Really solid performance by their lead vocalist , guitarist as well.
After their set, ( opening for  Orgone ) we briefly met the keyboardist
and percussionist ( both hail from Stl. ) speaking about old haunts such
as Ted Drewes  and Tower Grove Park. A really fun night for Tam and me.

J U N E GREETINGS !

Hello Friends.

The new single " He Does it for the Dogs "  is receiving regional radio airplay
in and around the St. Louis Mo. area.
We wish to thank those of you who've already purchased the song online through
www.cdbaby.com/tomwood14   and to the radio programmers who have aired the
new single to their audience.  I feel encouraged to continue with  the time and energy
it takes to accomplish a result which feels satisfying. I must wear many different " hats"
in the process of recording, and releasing new music successfully.

Thank you so much to all on my team and to everyone else who has, and shall be,
involved with the project.
p   e    a     c      e  

 . . . .  today was a good day.

Every day is a good day, just that some days you can seem
to accomplish more than usual.

I am Thankful, and my energy is returning.
There is still much to do in finishing the current
album project, where we have been productive
as of late ; and although many more hours will be invested,
I  am  confident that the end result will be worth every minute.

G R E E T I N G S ! ! !

 I am very busy these days.
Time moves so quickly  when working all the time.
I am sleep depraved  .  I like to sleep, and recharge  the
battery, mainly due to the fact that I always " burn " hot.
Natural body heat is an asset? Rarely, is my core cold. I am thankful
about staying warm easily, except . . . desert summer temps are brutally hot.
Sleep is necessary for balance. High energy requires adequate rest.

The new single " He Does it for the Dogs " is selling.
I am happy about our production ,  and overall outcome regarding this song,
including the light atmosphere's presence aurally.

LK and I are continuing the long distance  studio stuff.
Currently , the addition of a new " sonic color" on our song
"Soldier for Your Life" is working.  My good friend John Higgins,
performed brilliantly on lap steel guitar, providing subtle layers
of sound. This song is almost ready for a final studio mix .

"He Does it for the Dogs" has been up on the internet for sale
www.cdbaby.com/tomwood14
This is the first single from the upcoming EP.
There are many more song  projects awaiting attention, before the
final mastering is completed / and the album art designed /
SEASAC affiliations finalized, and a few more issues which have
to be ready for our album release.

I am happy to report that the first single from the new record is now available for
download www.cdbaby.com/tomwood14

The song is a swing folk jazz inspired number featuring my good friend and masterful
trumpet player extraordinaire  Mr. Max Crawford.  Bassist and music producer
Larry Kornfeld recorded his upright bass perfectly to give the tune warmth : creating
a mellow groove throughout this new song.

Currently production regarding the completion of our mini album remains on hold.
I will post  more news as things develop in the weeks ahead.

Thanks for visiting.

S P R I N G E Q U I N O X

G  R E E  T  I N G S  !

All is well.
The plan to release a full length album by the end of March 2015 is changing.
Due to circumstances beyond our control, the release of this new work has been
delayed until further notice.

I am hopeful about the release of this new album .
Time and Money are important issues everyone must deal with when
involving themselves in projects which cost both time and money.
Experience is a wonderful teacher: constantly challenging our decisions ,
framing  direction and motivation towards our lofty goals.
  Clarity.  A gift.

I am confident this music shall be available to you.

Thanks for checkin' in here.
