Verderslice Releases New Material...among other artistic endeavors

He's a busy guy, that John Vanderslice. You have to love an artist that take full advantage of his creativity, never dabling. For one thing, he founded the Tiny Telephone recording studio in San Francisco which is still 100% analog. That means their recordings are a bit old-timey and use tape instead of computers to record music --cool. Death Cab for Cutie and Spoon have recorded there.

In between writing books, shooting photography and performing, he's also managed to release new music. Romanian Names (released May 19, 2009) offers catchy hooks, carefree harmonies and is completely melody driven. The indie rocker also teamed up with his friend John Darnielle, of The Mountain Goats to release a vinyl-only EP entitled Moon Colony Bloodbath.
