Jason Webley Wednesday, the 11 Edition!
March 11th, 2009
Today is a great day to have a Webley Wednesday, since today is the 11th. That automatically makes Friday the 13th! Can you feel the spoOooOOokiness?! So I am going to post the letter that came in my inbox today and urge you to go to www.jasonwebley.com and preorder the dang thing, so you aren’t left in a year searching for it on ebay, to no avail. (not that I would do that, or anything.)
Hello,I am now taking pre-orders for “Days With You”, the newest record in my series of collaborations (like Eleven Saints, Too Bottles of Wine, etc). I recorded this new EP with my amazing New York musician friend Sxip Shirey -a circus composer, gypsy guitar wizard, powerhouse solo performer, and collector of many a curious sound-making device. I think this may be myfavorite record in the series so far. Sxip and I have sculpted songs thatI feel are genuinely beautiful and unlike anything I might have everwritten on my own. You can take a listen to some of the tracks, and pre-order the EP here:

Like all of the other records in this series, this EP is just limited to1,111 copies. After these records are gone, no more will ever be pressed. The last EPs in the series sold out very quickly, and a large number of these new records are already spoken for (even before sending out thisannouncement, about 15% of the records I have available have been ordered.) So please order soon if you want to get a copy! Each record comes with a 7″ vinyl EP pressed in the Czech Republic on multi-colored vinyl, a full length CD with all of the music from the 7″ and much more, a lyric insert and an extra special gift. The package is housedin a sturdy cardboard sleeve. You can hear the title track in its entirety on my MySpace page:

*** Sxip and I are also about to begin a five night tour to celebrate the release of this record:
March 17 - Los Angeles, CA - Echo Curio
March 18 - San Francisco, CA - Bottom of the Hill
March 19 - Eugene, OR - Wow Hall
March 20 - Portland, OR - Reed College
March 21 - Seattle, WA - Vera Project
These will be great shows (For example Zoe Keating, formerly of Rasputina,is sitting in at the San Francisco Show.) Full details about all of thesenights are up at my web site. Copies of the EP will be for sale at these shows, but if you don’t live near any of these cities and want to get the EP, I really recommend ordering through the web-site, because there is a strong chance this will sell out soon:

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee! -Jason
