last days of the sun

it's been a great summer. i went to the beach a lot. experienced the hottest days in seattle's history. i went to spain twice. toured the east coast. moved to a new home. now that summer is over (which by the way, i am very happy about), it's the start of new beginnings for me. and what a way to start a new season. i will record a new album. tour europe. i look forward to it. monday morning i will head down to cottage grove oregon, where i will get to work with the brilliant and very talented richard swift. i have never been more excited about recording an album in my time of doing music, than right now. i'll be sure to update as things happen. for now, goodbye and take care everyone.

Hey man!
I hope to catch you in Orlando sometime. I know it's way down here in Florida but you have a following of diehards here, we would love to have you. I wrote a blog entry on your music yesterday at:

hey Damien i noticed you have a finished version of Zombies of the Sea on your Hoquiam myspace page... does this mean an album is coming out and where can anyone get it? :)

Hi Damien,

Next week I'll be seeing your show in Den Bosch. Yeah!! I'm really looking forward to it :) and secretly wondering if you'd play Sheets, Abilene and/or Trampoline. Those are my favorites.

See you next Tuesday!

i saw your show in oslo last year, it was really something. now I'm living in lisbon, but you're not coming here, so I'm trying to scrape together enough money for the trainride to the north of spain to see you there. you're songs are amazing. keep it up!

Hi Damien,

I just wanted to say thank you for giving me the opportunity to open for you in Dublin. Watching you perform is a really inspiring experience. Beautiful songs. Best of luck with your travels on the rest of your tour.

i have a band suggestion for you Damien to try to hook up with for a tour. the band is Noah and the Whale. i am listening to their album, The First Days of Spring, right now and thought this would be a great band to open up for you. when is the next time you will be coming through St. Louis? i love catching your live show :)
