Hi all,

Long time no speak! I've been really busy putting together a new non-profit organization called Weathervane Music. In a nutshell we're experimenting with a new model for how to fund and promote the work of great independent musicians.

Our main focus to start is something we're calling the Weathervane Music Project Series. It's a curated music and music-related video series produced for the web in which selected artists come into the studio (at no cost to them, of course) and record a song. The whole thing is artfully captured in hi-definition video, providing great exposure for the artist, some interesting material for gear enthusiasts, and a general primer for Weathervane's mission.

I am posting here because the Project Series sessions involve some crazy-amazing gear, most of which is Miner Street's (that's my studio in Philadelphia where all this is happening for now), but we've had some amazing stuff donated for the sessions as well by Ecstatic Electric, Studio Logic Sound, and directly from Doug Fearn of DW Fearn himself.

Check it out and let me know what you think!
