The new Apple Crisp 12″ compilation + zine is coming soon — watch for it in Summer 2010!
When you play live, you often wear a mask with storm clouds hanging over your face. What does that represent?
That started out as a joke. I like jokes and I like performing, but not being a performer, I needed something. I don’t want to say it’s like a gimmick but living in a small town like Kingston, especially working in a café like The Sleepless Goat, all my friends that go to my concerts already knew me, so I wanted to do something that made my band a separate personality — not my “I’m your bud making your coffee” personality.

An invitation from Pete:
Me Man Jack hosts their 3rd Monthly Mash-Up at the Island Grill Sunday, May 30. This time the music is on the patio in the afternoon from 1:30 - 4:30.
This mash-up is a gathering of long time musical friends as different members of Me Man Jack have long standing musical connections with each of the guests. Jay & the Barn Flyz, Gary Rasberry and Mark Taras & Rene Vermette will all lead portions of the afternoon with MMJ supporting. Jason Erb (Gertrudes, Infotourist) is coming by to add some extra keys as well.
Walk on the free ferry from downtown Kingston and catch some music by the lake. Maybe ride your bike out to Big Sandy Bay first and then come back to relax on the patio. You can watch a few ferry runs go by before you pick which is your ride back home!
(Here’s a video from a previous Island Grill Monthly Mash-up featuring Stephen Stanley)

“They’ve once again skirted the unwieldy threat of identifiable genre and stayed true to their adjective hyperbole.”
