This past Saturday the Project and I were privliged to play the St. Louis Art Fair. If you are coming to the site after catching the set, I want to thank you for joining us for the performance. Further more, if you picked up a Nalgene bottle or an album, THANK YOU! The band and I are so tired of lugging those bottles around. They take up more space than Seth’s drums. CD’s are easily portable. Selling product is the keystone in building on your passion. Over the next month, the band and I are going be working on putting together the next album. Please don’t hesitate to email me at adam@stanleymusic.com if you want to be put on the list to be notified when we have it finished or to be notified when we will be playing in your area. Thanks again everyone.
Things are moving right along in the music world. Thank you to all the new venues, loyal venues, production companies, retail stores, and studios. I also want to say a big thank you to the St. Louis music community for all they are doing to bring the music back to this great city. Keep putting your best foot forward everyday and something major will happen. I’m looking forward to working with all of you.
Listen to this: The band and I had a great weekend playing in St. Louis & Columbia Missouri this past weekend. We were playing outside at Les Bourgeois Winery and the sun was setting over the mighty Missouri River. On our last set, we had a guy come up and ask us to use a portion of the stage to catch the sunset. He told us that he never got to just sit and watch the sun set with his girl and he wanted to come up on stage to catch it. The band and I didn’t know if it was the wine talking or if this guy was crazy. Anyway, he asked me to take a picture of the two of them, which I did, and when he came back to get the camera, his eyes got a little wider and his hand was rummaging through his pocket. Needless to say the band and I pulled back so he was able to take a moment to get on one knee and propose. We were totally taken back by this and Bob asked if we had anything left in the set appropriate for the moment. You don’t want to let these experiences pass you by, so after she said yes we played “To Have and To Hold” and the crowd really went wild. It was one of the best moments of my career and I want to thank that couple for sharing a very important moment me and the boys. We wish you the best of luck and with that kind of romance…you won’t need it.
I went on Columbia Access Television and played on one of their shows called Notes from the Underground. I have been working on so much new music lately, I wanted to lay it down. I hope you like it. You should check out some of the shows on CATV. Notes from the Underground and Down in Front are entertaining. Check it out! Thanks so much Ryan, Michael, Andy and the rest of the crew at Notes from the Underground.
New videos are up on YouTube. Feel free to comment. I hope you enjoy the music.
This video is put together with pictures taken of The Project performing at The Blue Note. The Song is King & Queen from my latest album “Requisite Renaissance”. King & Queen is a tight little jam that has been gaining popularity in Canada of all places. If you don’t like it, you can take off eh.
This little vid is put together with pictures taken by Benfield Photography. ”To Have and To Hold” is a simple song that has really been taking off. I hope you enjoy!
I was glad to see so many at first show of the year at Cicero\’s. I put some pics and vids together from that show and put them up on all my hyperlinks. I will make sure to update stanleymusic first from here on out. Don’t hesitate to click on those links to see what’s new or to comment on anything you haven’t seen.I have a great set of shows coming up this week. First, Thursday 1/22 at The Gramophone with a great local act The ContinuOhm. Then on to Columbia to play to open up the spring semester. Hope to see some new faces.
This is a song that I have been working on for the next album. ”Nobody Ever Knew” was recorded at a LiveFeed’s Anniversary Concert. They hosted a great concert at The Gramophone back in November. I will be releasing some live tracks from this show to stanleymusic.com, so make sure to check it out every now and again.
