A few weeks ago I was out doing this sort of thing

A few weeks ago I was out doing this sort of thing in the Finnish wilderness, with Chanan Hanspal, Jaan Wessman Official and Schröeder joining me for an upcoming film project directed by Mikko Keinonen.

Here are a few brief cell phone videos (shot by Tomi Laurikainen) with me playing the Lava Drops fretless guitar, which I have come to love very much in the short time I've had it. I look forward to a long, happy future with this incredible instrument.

(Thank you to Harri Loiva for the use of the portable amplifier, which was inside the satchel I had strapped to me.)

It is so, y'know?! This'll be the first OSD gig where I am the primary guitarist, so this will be a new experience for audients, especially if you've seen me play with these geniuses (genii? geniuii?) at previous gigs, at which I was more keyboardially-inclined. If you haven't seen me with OSD before, it'll be even newer!

Come to this show! I used to live in Santee in the '70s, and there I underwent high-schooling. It shall be, for me, nostalgic overwhelm-ment to return there.

TONIIIIIIIGHT

CHICAGOOOOOO

Matt Dorsey will be doing a couple of his solo tunes in the brief interval between my solo set and the progjazzfreakoutimprov jam that will end both this set and my past month of crazed public musical activity

There? Be? You??

Opened for Lifesigns last night with a trio featuring Gregg Bendian and Teddy Kumpel and it was so much freaking fun. Thank you guys.

Tonight at the Lifesigns gig at Electric City in Buffalo I’ll be doing a solo set - Matt Dorsey will open the night with a solo set of his own, and our two sets will kinda bleed together in an interesting way. I believe that Dave Bainbridge from Lifesigns will also be participating in my solo set. All the guys in Lifesigns are just such brilliant players and such lovely guys. We’re in a van to Buffalo as I type. We had an inhumanly early lobby call this morning in order to bring this show to you kind Buffalo folks this evening. YOU HAVE TO ATTEND.

Gang!! If you’re going to ProgStock in NJ over the next few days, you will probably see me more than a couple of times, cuz I’m sitting in with a small host of different folks. But also it turns out I’ll be doing a bit more - sadly Patrick Moraz has taken ill and been advised not to travel, so I’ve inherited his solo spot on Friday night, opening for the David Cross Band. See you, perhaps, there?

A new Mike Keneally/Marcelo Radulovich album, BASK

A new Mike Keneally/Marcelo Radulovich album, BASK 2, premieres on Bandcamp today for Bandcamp Friday.

This is the fifth album to come out from me and Marcelo over the last fourteen months. The collaboration feels to me like it’s reached an apotheosis with this album. Marcelo has a way of mixing, and the two of us apparently have a way of quickly creating music, that has now arrived at a very precise destination, a sound world I can’t describe, it has to be heard.

Our ongoing collaboration is not over yet, and in a way it’s hard for me to imagine where it’s going to go next, but with this album it really has gotten to a place that fascinates me completely and I love it. I hope you can get behind the singular and peculiar nature of this new album.

We’ve got two separate parallel sets of albums going on – the series of instrumental albums named after the days of the week (so far we’ve done three of those, MONDAY through WEDNESDAY), and the two vocal BASK albums. If you’re a headphone music listener, hoo boy just you wait ‘til you hear this new one. Just you wait!

BASK 2 will be added later today to the Titicacaman Records catalogue on Bandcamp, which can be found at titicacamanrecords.bandcamp.com

Hellay and welcome to another Bandcamp Friday! T

Hellay and welcome to another Bandcamp Friday!

Today we're introducing WING BEAT FANTASTIC - SONGS BY MIKE KENEALLY AND ANDY PARTRIDGE to our Bandcamp roster, supplemented by two bonus tracks: the original unadorned piano track for "That's Why I Have No Name," along with Scott Chatfield's edit of all the album tracks (called "Little Wing Beat") which was used back in the day on the old Keneally dot com to promote the album - Scott's album collages (I always called them edit bouquets) were always great fun for me to hear, and instructive for me to see which bits of the songs stuck out to him as worthy of hlghlighting.

Of course the album itself remains a highlight of my life in music - such a privilege/pleasure to be able to work with Andy Partridge in the creation of this batch of material.

The whole Bandcamp Keneally catalogue is at mikekeneallymusic.bandcamp.com, proper link is at the linktree in my bio.
