Fall is here and I feel like I pretty much missed summer. Recording the Christmas CD has had me in a holiday cave. While everyone was at the beach, I was singing Joy To The World. But I’m not complaining, I’m so glad to be releasing the Christmas CD!
Hopefully you have seen the Big For Me video! If not, you can watch it here: It premiered on Logo this week.
I’ve been blogging about it for a while and now it’s finally here…the release of the Big For Me video!!! We shot the video in Mexico City and I had a blast making it. It was a couple of days of magic and a few months of labor intensive editing for the director Bambo Velasco and his team. I’m so excited to be premiering the finished product! You can check out the Big For Me video here:
THE PREMIERE OF BIG FOR ME!
Hey friends,
I’ve been blogging about it for a while and now it’s finally here…the release of the Big For Me video!!! We shot the video in Mexico City and I had a blast making it. It was a couple of days of magic and a few months of labor intensive editing for the director Bambo Velasco and his team. I’m so excited to be premiering the finished product! You can check out the Big For Me video here:
I’d love for all of you to send the link to your friends and help spread the word. I think it’s innovative and ground breaking and if you agree, tell your friends!

I’ve been in a Christmas fog finishing this CD and I’m so excited for you all to hear it! There’s a mix of Christmas standards, holiday favorites and originals. I’ve been “doing Christmas” all summer, I’ll have a fall break to get back on the road promoting The Introduction (Have you gotten your copy yet? If not, you can get it here: ) Then Christmas will start all over again!
Honestly, your boy is exhausted. I’ve been pulling 18 hour days in the studio making sure you guys get the best Christmas CD possible! As soon as I’m finished, I’m headed home to Hawaii for a few days for some much needed R&R. I think I’m gonna sleep for like three days!
So by next week I should be rested and ready to take on the World again!
What a week. These four dates with Nikka Costa have been amazing! Thanks so much to all the Cali fans that came out to the shows! It’s great to be with another artist that performs everything live. No tracks, nothing canned, all live and organic. Nikka is unbelievable live and it’s been an honor to share the stage with her.
We got great feedback from fans and critics alike. So I was very happy. I’ve spent enough time on the road to know how important it is to tour with people you really like. My band and singers always make it so much fun and Nikka’s team shares that same vibe. So all in all, I’d say it rocked!
Nikka’s band was amazing. Her bass player had this big cool fro and it made me think of how bad I wanted a fro when I was a kid. I wanted one so bad that when I was ten years old I convinced my Grandmother to give me a perm. Yeah I know…but I was ten. I ended up with Shirley Temple ringlets. It was not a good look. I ended up shaving my head. It was either that or walk around singing “the sun’ll come out tomorrow”.
Many of you have asked about us spreading out to other shows across the Country and all I can say is, keep your eyes open, you never know!
So I got back to LA and headed right into the studio to start working on the Christmas CD. Now I’m all in the Christmas spirit. Christmas in June baby!
It’s been a few weeks since I mentioned it so I think it’s worth repeating. If you haven’t picked up the Big For Me single on Itunes, be sure to do that. I’d love for everyone to buy, rate and review. Here is the link: Buy Big For Me
On that note, the EP is finished and will be available on Itunes very soon so keep a lookout for that! It’s got a few songs that many of you may not have heard yet and some hot remixes! Dresden & Johnston and Bama Boyz remixes are off the chain. I can’t wait for you to hear them!!
Thanks again to all of you guys for all of your love and support. I honestly couldn’t do it without you!!
PS – Here’s a video from the first night of tour, at the Independent in San Francisco:
