Blog archive: JANUARY, 2010

Good Question.
After my Resolution 2010 post went up on MySpace, I was happily reminded via blog comments and direct messages that quite a few people discovered my music last year through Jeebus. I'm grateful for that! (On Facebook, you only get feedback if you post about babies, Mondays, or how badly you need a nap.)
What I hadn't considered was that my new friends don't know what Hanslick Rebellion is - or Skyscape - or what any of the projects I listed for 2010 have to do with Jeebus. For those of you who wrote to ask (and those of you who didn't), here's a quick New Year's primer.
Jeebus is Mike, Alex, Reeves, Matt and myself. Or as you know us: Orlando, Old Man Cropsey, Reeves, Joe and Jedidiah. Of this you are aware - and you know that we play nasty music loaded with offensive themes and dirty words, and titles like "Born Asking For It" and "Mock Cheer".
So from Jeebus, take Mike, Alex and me. Add Kearns on the drums. You get The Hanslick Rebellion. We play balls-out rock and roll, and we have been making music together since college. Our best-known song is "You Are Boring The Shit Out Of Me", which came out in 2007. Think of the Rebellion as the ego, and Jeebus as the id.
If you add vocalist Dom to The Hanslick Rebellion, you have Skyscape. I've been making music with Dom since high school. Dom has been making me laugh with his absurdist ravings since we were six. Skyscape is all about bringing Dom's game to the masses. When we're doing our job, you get awesome shit like "Break Your Fuckin Balls" and "Buffalo Head".
Then there's my solo shit. When I do a solo album, you never know who's gonna show up on there (besides me). Sometimes it'll have a little Rebellionness to it. Sometimes a little Jeebosity. That's to be expected. But mostly it's the stuff that I need to say for myself, in my way. I'm sure you know how that is.
So that's my world... welcome to it. If you found any of this of interest, then 2010 will be your year. OUR year!
Love,
Jed.
