The new updated site! – July 1/07
Hey everyone,
Well it’s been a while coming, but the new site is finally up. We’ve got some clips of the last Songwriters Hall of Fame show, which was a blast, and a bunch of new media.
Big news, Chop Socky Chooks is premiering on Teletoon Canada this July. This is the CG-animated show i’m doing for Aardman, the people who bring you Wallace & Gromit, etc. It will debut internationally in February 2008.
I just returned from an 8 day stint with Anjani and Leonard Cohen, playing London, Oslo and Warsaw. Hanging with Leonard is always a blast, a truly nice guy, full of amazing music industry stories.
I was only home for 6 days, then it was off to Tokyo with the family to visit friends and to visit the Yamaha piano factory in Hamamatsu. Love the people at Yamaha, very gracious…and a great company with great stuff. After much research i recently bought a Yamaha S90ES as my new main keyboard (when there’s not a grand piano or a Hammond B3 around).
I’m currently writing the opening theme for 2 TV shows, the first being ‘Across the River to Motor City’. Premiering on CHUM network in the fall, it’s about a murder that takes place in Detroit/Windsor in the 60s. I’m using my band, The Dexters, on this one, for that authentic 60s feel.
The other is a new reality show “The List” for SliceTV. Sung by Lisa dalBello, it’s a modern rock tune that Lisa sings the #%^$$## out of.
All for now,
Lou
