For the Benefit of Mister Adams

Last winter/spring, Alexander James Adams helped us finish our album Thirteen by adding an amazing set of tracks to our song, Apprentice. The wonderful sounds he sculpted made the song sound the way we had always dreamed it would.

Today, Alec needs our help. To that end, all proceeds from our in-person and CDBaby sales of Thirteen and Shadowbeast for the month of August will be going to Alec and Kore. CDBaby is great because they have very little overhead; the vast majority of each sale is profit that goes directly to the artist. We'll just be taking that whole profit from each sale and sending it straight on to Alec and Kore. We regret that we can't do the same for other online sales channels such as iTunes or Amazon, so please make sure your online purchases are through CDBaby, or in person from us, if you want your purchase to help them. (Vixy is donating art sale proceeds, as well.)

And, as always, purchases at Faerie Tale Minstrel and Heatherlands go directly to Alec and Kore, too. There is also a direct paypal donation form if you're interested in giving directly.

The combination of that subject line and that particular photo of Alec is wonderful. Suddenly he looks a lot like Eddie Izzard.

See Vixy? Someone got it!

Actually, I haven't heard the Eddie Izzard version from Across the Universe yet. Haven't seen the film. I just thought that referencing the Beatles' song in the subject line would be fun. It wasn't until earlier today, when I used this link to explain the subject line, that I discovered there was an Eddie Izzard cover of the song.

I am very fond of that movie, which counteracts entirely what I was saying elsewhere about liking the first version of a song best. Eddie Izzard is delightfully crazy in it.

See, neither had I heard of this movie at all. I just fail across the board. :)
