collage insert from the start fires album

While we were recording, mixing and mastering our album in portland this past february, we took some time out to make a double sided collage poster, which we then copied and included in the hand-packaged first edition of the cd. While I was making my side I realized that I had subconsciously encorporated many representitive aspects of my life expereince. Upon its completion I held a roadmap to many parts of my soul, past, present and future all at once. Very interesting process indeed.

I am in Austin right now for the South By South West music festival and just took some time out to have it scanned at the local copy shop, so I could finally share it with everyone who has yet to get a copy of the cd. Want one? hit me up: dmlh@startfires.com or just make a contribution of $15 or more at startfires.bandcamp.com, where you can name your own price for the download ($10 gets you all the tracks).
