Hello! Brandon and The Deadbirds will be playing at Hotel Cafe
on February 20 at 11:30 just after Meiko's set. Come on, come all!

I'd like to take a second to talk about my friend Gregory Slay. He passed
away today Jan 1,2010. I cannot reiterate this enough: he was a HUGE influence
on me and my music. I was lucky enough to be neighbors, and then really good
friends with him for years at The Villa Elaine. He was a magical guy that
mesmerized everyone he was around. Kind, gentle, savage musician, unquenchable
artist. He made a difference in my life and in the lives of everyone he touched.
I can't believe he's gone, but google some Remy Zero or Sleepwell of O + S videos
and tell me if he's not the coolest dude ever. I'll miss you Gregory. We all will.
Thank you for being my friend.
Brandon

"BRANDON MCCULLOCH & THE DEADBIRDS - WILD IMAGINE - fine new local pop combo from the frontman of the late great Silver! Gently chiming paisley underground style guitar tunes with nice chord changes, thoughtful choruses and wistful lyrics, a little bit Church, a little bit Kinks, a little bit Go-Betweens. nice stuff!"

Thank you Ameoba records! You are a beacon of light in a dismal time for the music industry. Your undying support of independent music is SO important.
