Judson Claiborne Record UPDATE!

Update #3 · May 22, 2012 · comment

Hey y'all friendly friendlies, 

First off, I apologize for taking so damn long to write and thank y'all so much for helping me fund the making of my new record.  How energizing it is to be supported by a community of friends and strangers in my pursuit of creating crazy new sonic environments!  I am truly blessed and inspired by you kind and lovely people.. 

So we did the thing!  We traveled to Newaygo, MI to record the final songs of the album.  How amazing it was to wake up, walk around the lake, have a banana and record music for a week straight!  Much magic was captured and i'm looking forward to sharing it soon.  Included here are photos from our lake house session! oooh yeah! As of right now, we're in Chicago mixing the songs and hopefully we'll be tying it all up in the next few weeks! Will keep you posted! 

We have some exiting Chicago shows and a tour coming up! See below!

Friends of Judson Claiborne! 

an UPDATE on Judson Claiborne's - "We Have Not Doors You Need Not Keys" Kickstarter Campaign! 

I am at nearly half of my goal ($1243.00) which is downright exciting!  But HOLY HELL!! just 9 d a y s to reach my goal of $2,800. 

It's a nail biter of a situation, and do you know what happens to nail biters?  They get these gnarly infections that cause their fingers to look like hot dogs! 

I'd really like to avoid having swollen hot dog fingers so please watch the video, check out the handsome rewards, & donate if you feel it's a worthy investment.  If you've already donated, THANK YOU & please spread the word!! 

Attached is a solo performance of Neo-Pagan Love Song from the soon to be new album.
