December 16 , 2007: Sorry again for the long gap between updates, but 2007 has been an insanely busy year: 20 shows, recording, bizarre collaborations, a festival, exciting radio performances, covers of Big Black and Elvis Costello, etc. Again, check the aforementioned Myspace blog for some updates on many of those things, and stay tuned for others. (For one: Ball of Wax 11 is going to blow your mind; that's all I can say for now.) For now, let me just say thank you to anyone and everyone that I had anything to do with this year: whether you came out to a show, played a show with me, downloaded a couple songs, came and looked at my Web site, played in my band, were in a band with me for a day, recorded me, booked me - you get the idea - THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart. Ultimately I play music because I love it and I want to, but you all make it a lot more fun and less lonely. Thanks for a wonderful 2007, and here's to a brilliant 2008! And speaking of 2008: Please come on out to my first show of the shiny new year, January 3rd at the shiny new Project Project in Pioneer Sq., with the wonderful Luminous Craft (as heard on Ball of Wax 10) and the shiny new Fancy Bread. June 17 , 2007: Shit, where do the days go? Apparently it's been over 2 months since I've updated this thing. If that happens again, you can check my Myspace blog; I seem to be updating that more frequently. If you were to do that now, you could read about:
Anyway, I guess that pretty much covers everything. Here's a bonus just for you visitors of my real Web site: Levi Fuller and the Library performing "Way to Be" live on KEXP last year. Enjoy! April 7 , 2007: The wonderful Slight Records has just released That Horse Yonder, a tribute to the songs of Sparklehorse. It includes my version of "Morning Hollow," along with contributions from Wesafari, Snowman Plan, Danny & the Nightmares, and many other musical luminaries. Also, it's only $8 and all proceeds go to benefit Sweet Relief, a fine non-profit organization. And if I know Kaleb, the package design will kick your ass. (Point being, go buy the effin' thing!)
February
28, 2007: So this month I wrote and recorded an album
called The I Is Not Always Me, as part of the RPM
Challenge. Here are two songs: January 22 , 2007: Please come out to the Ball of Wax Vol. 7 release show on February 1st, 2007. You won't regret it!
December 6, 2006: A nice review of TMIaPG popped up today at Fensepost; go ahead and check it out. If you feel like it, you could then head over to Three Imaginary Girls and vote for the best Northwest albums of 2006. Feel free to consider mine . . . Oh, and I've got a fun show coming up this Saturday (my last of 2006!). I do hope you can make it out. October 31, 2006: You might have noticed I'll be heading out of town to play a few shows in California soon. If you're reading this from near any of those shows (Sacramento, Davis, San Francisco, Stanford, Santa Cruz?), I'd love it if you could come out or tune in. I'm sad to report, however, that some of my favorite people are having CD release parties this weekend that I'll be missing. I'm really bummed to miss these great shows celebrating milestones for Rosyvelt (on Friday) and Pufferfish (on Saturday). If you're in Seattle, I heartily encourage you to hit both of these shows, and send my regrets. October 15, 2006: Many thanks to Heather Duby and Michael Zapruder's Rain of Frogs for a great show on Friday. And thanks to those of you who came out, of course. Next: come on out on Thursday for the Ball of Wax 6 release show!
September 3, 2006: I got a nice write-up in this week's issue of The Stranger. (Thanks Kurt B. Reighley!). Go check it out, and then come out to the show on Tuesday!
August 5, 2006: Today's News:
July 17 , 2006: You should come out to this on Thursday. You can even hear me and Robb Benson talk about it on the most recent edition of his podcast! June 21 , 2006: Many bits of news piling up:
May 14, 2006: Last night on KEXP was really fun. Huge thanks to Casey, Gavin and James (a.k.a. The Library) for doing such a kick-ass job. Thanks also to Abe for being such a gracious host. If you missed it, you should go right now and stream it. May 6, 2006: Hey, I just got a last minute-ish show for next Friday, May 12th, at the Vera Project with Jen Wood! I'm very excited, as I've known Jen for a while now, but we've never gotten to play a show together. Also, the Vera Project frickin' kicks ass. LF & the Library's been busy preparing for our set next Saturday on KEXP - I hope you can all listen in. If you miss it, it'll be in their streaming archive for a couple weeks thereafter. And lastly, you should really check out the new volume of Ball of Wax. It rules. April 3, 2006: Hitting the road tomorrow. I will attempt to blog from the road, 'cause why not? March 31, 2006: Just a little update on the fine radio stations around that are playing my CD (so far). Please listen to and support KEXP Seattle, KBGA Missoula, KDVS Davis, and WZBC Newton (wow, let's hear it for the 90.3s!) - and while you're listening, feel free to request any of the songs from This Murder Is a Peaceful Gathering. Check out my shows page, and if you live in Seattle, please come out to the CD release show tomorrow! If you live in San Francisco, Sacramento, or Portland, then please come to one of my shows in those fine cities next week! March 7, 2006: Welcome to my re-designed Web site! Aren't you excited? The new design is to celebrate the fact that This Murder Is a Peaceful Gathering has, at long last, been released. What does this mean? If you live in Seattle, it means you can find it at some of our finer music retailers (so far Sonic Boom Records in Capitol Hill & Fremont, and Easy Street Records in Queen Anne - more to come). If you live somewhere else, it means you can order the album from me right here, and I'll send it to you immediately. Also, I still have some copies of the special bonus EP I've been giving out to early purchasers, so you'll want to jump on that. March 4, 2006: Have I really not written here in 3 months? Madness! Well, it's been a busy time. The CD is done - mastered, manufactured, the whole bit - and I'm quite happy with the finished product. The official release date is this coming Tuesday, March 7th, so get your orders in! The first review has already been published, and it's a pretty nice one! Thanks to SCTAS for that. We'll be having a release show on April 1st at the Rendezvous, with Water Kill the Sun and Mooncalf. That will be a very fun night. Also, I'll be playing a few out of town shows right after that, so check in frequently, you California and Portland folk! December 4, 2005: Hey there. Here is the news these days:
And I guess that's about it. I hope you all are keeping warm and sane in these cold, kooky times.
