On the day of the Lander Birthday show, we all awoke to find some surprising news. The Oregonian covered the Portland Songwriter Association Final and gave the Lander show a nice plug. Click here to read the full article.

With that said, the night was amazing. Though it was last minute, the birthday show proved to be successful. We sincerely appreciate everyone for coming out on such short notice and making the show such a great birthday gift. Thank you Crux Gallery for hosting such an amazing venue and db clay for allowing the after-math. The set was short and sweet but filled with bunches of new music. I was thrilled at the vibe in the room and the faces in the crowd- honored to play for the people who matter most.

The after-party was a great chance to thank everybody in person. It seemed to me that everone enjoyed themselves (some a little too much). Thank you Verbz for playing records and db clay for hosting the event… they did an amazing job making the lander birthday memorable.

Here is a clip of Lander at the Doug Fir Lounge PDX performing a rare Clarity 07.25.06. The song is about the Apocalypse and a dream I had (your seeing the ending). Sweet dreams.

As I sift through the Lander videos, I’m going to start posting as much film as possible. Since we use a tiny digital camera the quality of sound and image is usual suspect- but enjoy nonetheless. All videos will be played on youtube.com

The night was complete with a brand new merchandise and free CDs for all. Click here to buy the new album!

Thanks to all that helped in the production- thank you to the crew at the doug fir lounge, db clay and sameunderneath for the help with the grunt work. Thank you Matt Putnam for opening and Ohmega Watts for closing. Now that the party is over… enjoy the album.
