I recently visited Jon Langford at his art studio and filmed a performance of Strange Ways to Win Wars, a track from his new Bloodshot record, Old Devils. His talented accomplices here are Jim Elkington and Tawny Newsome. Thanks to Nancy Bardawil and Aadam Jacobs on camera and audio, respectively. If any music journalists are reading this, 1) god help you, and 2) if you ever interview Langford, you can be the first to ask: “Why are you such a fat Welsh bastard?”

Last November, in my pal Brian Belknap‘s San Francisco garage, I filmed the abundantly talented singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist performing his song Junkyard. Bill Paxton’s character in Adam Rifkin‘s strange film The Dark Backward was based on Brian. You can check out his music here.
Update: you can download 3 albums from Brian’s band Turpentine, for free (!) here.
(The resolution of this clip is very high. It should help to click play and then click pause, then wait for the video to load before hitting play again. Also, if you click on the arrows next to the word Vimeo you can watch it full screen.)
Violet Eyes, a brand spanking new video by the fabulous duo My Gold Mask, has just been posted. I shot and directed the video, which was shot both in HD (with the trusty Canon 5DMII) as well as with a low-res toy video camera (circuit-bent Fisher Price PXL-2000, aka “Pixelvision.”) Working with Jack and Greta and their Pug Roadie was a treat.

I recently posted a still photo I shot from the Thriller Zombie Walk held in Wicker Park last weekend. Here’s a short film (work in progress) on the event. Thanks to The Goblins for the soundtrack music, and thanks to Martin and Lindsay (the Zombie Walk organizers) and all of the spectacular, gorgeous zombies.
