I’m having fun making these karaoke style videos lately. Call it a phase. I’d like to make some videos starring yours truly and friends but it’s a hard winter and frankly, I’m too busy saving the world.
Seriously, I am trying. Are you?
Hello everybody!
I meant to post this song a few weeks ago and somehow never got around to it. This is the 1st song I wrote in 2012 titled, appropriately enough, “happy new year”. Well, better late than never!
The 1st file is an MP3 and 2nd file is a quick video I made using the actual fireworks that I experienced celebrating 2012 New Year’s. The cool thing about those fireworks is that it’s the 1st time I’ve ever been above the fireworks looking down and on occasion many of the blasts exploded on the same floor as our hotel suite, overlooking downtown Hamburg.
Anyway, I hope you like this song. Admittedly I was a little insecure about it but I tested it with a few friends and everybody said it was cool. So, there you have it. Happy new year!
Immediately after purchase, you will be directed to download your MP3 and Video.
Hey Peeps!
Yeah, I tweeted a few days ago about getting off my ass and trying out one of the um-teen Casting Shows dominating the planets entertainment spectrum. It seems to be about the only way to reach a load of people since Goddess knows record companies aren’t doing a damn thing developing markets for artists. At any rate, I DID IT and now when I bitch about it (as I have and will continue) I can speak first hand, LOL!
Here I am off to AND THE WINNER IS. My journey is all in German folks but the images will still give you an idea what a nightmare this whole entertainment system really is. Pity that the brilliant veterans that have already paid their industry-dues for decades, still have to result to this. I sure met enough of them while I was there! Hang in there gang! Don’t let the hordes of whining, talentless Teens bitching and moaning about how long they’ve waited and wanted and dreamed and worked for their stardom. Can I puke now?
Since I landed here in Germany recently, I’ve managed several cool productions as of late. However, one thing I wasn’t able to pull off easily was creating a Strat sound using my Martin’s and plugins. The easiest solution was to find a good strat….CHEAP! This Fender is tres cool and reminds me of Mr. Hendrix’s favorite whitey. Have a look…
Being the ‘hand-me-down’ lover that I am, I ended up with my pal Leslie’s iphone, when she bumped up to a 4. It’s proven to be a great device for me and I’ve created an abundance of art with the thing; pics, vids and now, music.
Sure, I’ve used the microphone to record song ideas, thoughts, sex sounds and the like but now that Apple has released GARAGEBAND for the iOS devices, it’s literally a fukn studio in your damn poket.
On this recording RING OF FIRE, there are 6 analog audio tracks (2 guitars, 4 vocals) recorded via the iphone’s own mic and there are 2 digital tracks (bass, drums) played within the program. Here’s my take on recording with GARAGEBAND with an iphone. This song definitely deserves a video!
I’ve wanted to post this for sometime now but couldn’t find the dang MP3′s to put here. Now that I’ve landed back in Europe for a time, I’ve been able to hook up some old hard drives and to my happy surprise, I’ve found my version of “HURT” as well as Trent Reznors and Johnny Cash’s.
Here they are for your enjoyment. As you’ll hear, I managed to combine the two, to some unique extent. I love ‘em all! Let me know your thoughts in a comment.
Here’s a video for your enjoyment from a live show in Glendale. My first ever there! Thanks again to JR MacDonald for playing Cajon.

SORRY ABOUT your first visit here not containing an audio clip.
As I'm setting up new online shops for KAMARY PHILLIPS BAND, I'll be posting a lot of music that's going to be for sale soon on major, digital retailers like iTunes, Rhapsody, AmazonMP3, etc.
When you have a few minutes to spare, listen to the track and leave your opinion of what the song is worth in the POLL below. This info will help me determining what kind of prices to ask for. Thanks so much!

Hey Peeps!
There was meant to be an ACOUSTIC LOUNGE happening tonight at the Amsterdam Cafe in NOHO. Since some musicians flaked, we took the open slot last minute and will perform live, as a band.
Since it's late notice, I don't figure many of you are available to come out and visit us, live and in-person-like. So for all of you, feel free to tune in after 8.30 to see what we're concocting. We're keeping it loose and open, so if you're a talented singer/mc type, don't be shy to come down and muck around.
Here's a player to watch the show from the comforts of your living room.
