For the past few days I’ve been working and residing with an artist couple, Joe & Joanna Swayze, in Rockport, Massachusetts. I will be creating websites for the both of them along with digitalizing their work. Below are some of the images i’ve been working on.

Luke Rathborne will be playing every Tuesday night this August. I highly reccomend you stop by once or twice if you are in the city. And the shows are free, so what do you have to lose?
Press Release:
“The 21 year old – Brooklyn-based Maine native will play every Tuesday this month at The Living Room on the Lower East Side, Tuesdays at The Living Room on 158 Bleecker St in the Lower East Side at 10:30 P.M. for a special show every week, “In Search of the Miraculous” featuring a handful of NYC’s best musicians. Rathborne recently recorded material in New York with members of Antony & The Johnsons’ band, The Johnsons. Opening acts for the show will be Rain Phoenix’s “Papercranes” supporting her new album. ”
Reviews:
“..Like Bob Dylan, Lou Reed or Will Oldham, why should you expect anything else but constant haunting, and engaging development.” – TheFanzine.com
“strange… melancholic.. Rathborne has assembled a diverse septet of players for this show” – Village Voice
Hear some tracks at Luke’s Myspace. And here are Directions to The Living Room. Remember, it’s a free show, no tix required.

i ask that you’d not let go cause you’re wobbling to say the least / yeah you’re wobbling to say the least, wobbling to say the least / it’s about time for you to leave
