About this project

All funds pledged to this project will go towards recording equipment, mixing, mastering, and a print run of my new album Life Out East!

A few years ago I had a traumatic 18 months where it seemed like everyone I knew or was close with moved out of the city. While heartbreaking, it inspired an idea where I would write an album for them called Life Out East describing how I was doing and what was up out in NYC. Another project got in the way before I could start writing for it in earnest, but I started it last summer and it's almost a reality! Now I just need some financial help to get it out of my 4-track and into America's Heart!

My first stop would to be to buy a nice vocal microphone to put the final touches on the music for the album. Then take the tracks to be mastered and then do a print run of about 500 copies. There are all sorts of fees and crud along the way, postage for mailings, time for research, car rentals for short day trips to Philly etc, all funds will directly go towards making this album a reality!

Joe Yoga

Straightpin New York, NY

Joe Yoga is an artist, facilitator, and incorrigible force of nature based in New York City. He is working these days mainly in black and white, guitar, cassette tape, hand claps, acrylic, and the burdens of rage, love, and exhaustion towards "a sort of land-where-blues-began attentiveness to the half-broken heartbeat of a sound" (Nick Courage, A Mutual Respect Books and Music).

As a musician he appears at venues all over NYC and his first album "The Dreamless Sea" is available for free download at www.last.fm - His new album "Life Out East" will be available in Summer 2010.

As a stage performer he was recently featured in Kill the Band (Audience Choice Award Winner, 2010 Frigid Festival) and Ramblings of a Gentleman Scumbag (Imperial Award / Donor's Choice, 2010 Frigid Festival). He is also half of the house band at Penny's Open Mic, a massively popular Tuesday mic in the East Village (www.pennysopenmic.com), and produces a monthly show "Grudge Match: Music vs. Comedy" on the 3rd Wednesday of every month, featuring the best up and coming musicians and comedians in the city.
