This is the early show!  Doors are at 6:30.  I’ll be going on at 7 sharp, so come out early if you can!

In other news, the new record is being mastered this week!  It’s called Blue Rider.  Can’t disclose many details about it yet but I’ll definitely be playing a bunch of the tunes at the show on Tuesday.  Here’s a live video of one of the songs that my friend Ryan shot with his fish-eye camera.

Hello out there!  Zachary Cale here writing from the wintery white skies of Gotham.  Gonna interrupt my holiday hibernation with a little news item.  While on my recent European tour I stopped over in the Ore Mountains in the East German town of Schwarzenberg.  I had a day off originally but at the last minute my good friend Marcus Obst organized a concert at The Galerie Rademann.  It was late October (not even Halloween yet) but it was already snowing in the mountains.  The performance took place in a small room situated in the storefront of the gallery.  I proceeded to play a two hour set (21 songs) to the 30 or so locals packed in there.  Marcus captured the whole thing (warts and all) on a small hand held digital recorder.  You’ll have to forgive the fidelity of the recording, it is quite primitive, but I think it’s a nice document of my solo show for that tour.  On it you’ll find songs spanning throughout all my records (including the Illuminations LP) as well as a couple new and unreleased tunes.

You can download the entire set in your choice of FLAC or high quality MP3 from the Dying for Bad Music BANDCAMP page.

SPAIN TOUR to follow with THE BLACK SWANS!  tour dates coming soon.

Some of you may not know this already but for the past 4 years I’ve been co-running a record label with two close friends. Back in the summer of 2008 my band Illuminations was ready to release our first album. We weren’t new to playing in bands or cutting records, we just felt that it’d be cool to do everything ourselves for once, not sure why, it just seemed like a good idea at the time. Four years later I’m still standing by this concept, and in all honesty if it weren’t for All Hands Electric most of my music would never have been heard. To celebrate our four year anniversary we’re throwing a party. It just so happens that it’s during CMJ week. I hope that you will join us.

Tuesday October 16 @ Union Pool – 484 Union Ave. Brooklyn, NY

Free admission for CMJ badge holders.

Live at End of the Road Festival Sept. 1st 2012.

Polaroid by Chloe McCarrick

Well I’m back home again. I had a great time traveling in the UK. After three visits I feel like I’m only now understanding the lay of the land. I got to play in a couple new cities; I went to one of the oldest pubs in all of Yorkshire in the one time capital city of York, while Nottingham was my favorite show of the tour. The festival was amazing as expected. Played to the biggest audience I think I ever have. Got to see some great sets by Beach House, Roy Harper, Patti Smith, Richard Buckner, The Dirty Three, and Robyn Hitchcock and drank a couple tons of Ale. Met some new friends on the road and even managed to come home with money in my bag.

It’s September 11th today. A pretty memorable date if there ever was one. It also marks the anniversary of my move to New York City. It’s been 10 years to the day! Have to say that every time I leave this city I’m always happy to be back. Here’s to 10 more!

I’m playing one last local show before I head out the UK next week! This one should be interesting as I haven’t played a proper show in Manhattan in over a year! What with all the great venues closing down I can’t seem to find any worthwhile gigs on that side of the river. Luckily there still remain a few places holding it down in the dark tucked away spots of the big apple. I feel honored to be sharing the stage with Gary Higgins whose Red Hash LP was on constant rotation for me back when I first came across it back in 2004. Also on the bill is the Ed Askew, who I can’t praise enough.  Hope to see you!

Zachary Cale – 9pm

Gary Higgins – 10pm

Ed Askew – 11pm

Legends of Neglect – 12 am
