A fellow board member/PJ fan/friend of mine (MFC2006) and I have been writing a lot of songs together. We just finished 3 new ones week and are about to post them to our music page at:

    I enjoyed Count Down a lot as well as Midnight, bit of a Mark Lanegan sound going on there which I really dig along with the lazy harmonica.

    Hi everybody

    Been awhile since there's been an update on the music Matt and I are doing. We are currently in the process of releasing 13 songs as an LP on iTunes in March 2010 tenatively titled "Here We Are." Matt's sister is working on the cover art and even creating a video to go with the song "Here We Are." We have submitted them for copyright as of early last month and are both very excited about the music that's come out of our complete 'e-collaboration.'

    We have around 25 songs completed which you can hear at www.reverbnation.com/presentlyfalling
    You can hear the very latest 4 we just finished in December there and at www.myspace.com/presentlyfalling

    Matt and I have also picked up some really nice gear over the holidays that will be adding a new dimension to our work. Both of us got basses. I picked up a Fender Squier P-Bass and a Tascam USB interface device. Matt managed to find a Motu 828 mk2, a Fender Jazz Bass and a Djembe. One of our newest songs "Betting Man" features that drum on there.

    Thanks for all the comments so far! If you want mp3s of what we're doing, please feel free to e-mail Matt or I.

    I like the new tunes. I'd say Go Home is a bit better than Stay, but that's just an opinion at first glance. Actually, I think the structure and sound of Stay is the better of the two, if you tune down the percussion a bit.... it's a little loud to my ears for a song that starts slowly.

    But, anyways... good stuff.... congrats.

    Hi all

    Thanks for all your feedback! We are doing all the recording, mixing, writing etc., etc., on our own with our own equipment and I think all the songs come across well given we're doing all the work! 8-)

    Matt and I just posted 2 new songs "Oh, My Darling" and "Blue" and you can hear them and read our blogs on www.myspace.com/presentlyfalling or go to www.reverbnation.com/presentlyfalling to hear all 30 + songs we've written together since August 2009! We also have a new blog space at www.leeandcluthemusic.blogspot.com where you hear from us about the music we're doing and see some pics of the recording we've done.

    Happy Friday all!

    Hey guys! I really like your stuff and I LOVED Abbreviated. I'm in college right now studying music and have been worried that I might be too far behind behind skill-wise since I didn't get serious with it until the last year or so...So it was encouraging to read your bio and see you didn't really get started til college. Again, sounds great. Keep rockin'!
