I've been doing some music improvisation

I've been doing some live music improvisation with my band Lorenzo's Music on our Twitch channel.

We have been trying out different ideas on live streams to see what inspires us.

What if we Rumble fished? (YouTube Short clip)

This clip here is a YouTube Short from one of our sessions.

(View the full video here - GOOFIN' LIVE: RUMBLE FISH STYLE - LIVE STREAM CLIP)

When we turned on the cameras for this live stream session I said I wanted to try and play something that sounds like it's the soundtrack for the 1980s movie "Rumble Fish" by Stewart Copeland and Stan Ridgway.

So that's what we tried to do. 🙂

Songwriting live as an experiment

The band has been looking for some musical inspiration and I thought what if we forced ourselves to try and think of things while people are watching. 

No prep, no thinking about what to play beforehand. All we do is turn on the camera and throw out an idea to try musically.

No overthinking what to do just first thought and go with it!

It's been kind of fun. And we really end up trying things we wouldn't normally do because we have to keep the music going since people are watching.

New song! Variation witch

Keeping up with my plan to release new music every month.  This time around I venture into the punk blues realm. Sort of a mixture of The Black Keys and The Eels . This is a song called "Variation witch" by my band Lorenzo's Music .  The cover art is actually an antique top that I have in my collection. What I liked about it was the striped disc kind of like something in a Tim Burton film.

A quick peek behind-the-scenes of a new webcomic series. Coming soon!

I've recently paused my usual diary comic to dedicate my attention to an exciting new project—a fiction webcomic series featuring two characters that may be familiar to my long-time followers.  These characters, Bobert and the Monster have made appearances on my website before , and now they're taking center stage.  I'm working diligently with the hope of launching the series shortly.  In the meantime, I'd like to share this behind-the-scenes video of the drawing process for one of the upcoming pages.  Stay tuned for more updates as I bring this creative vision to life.
