Canons, Vol 1 available now for free

Please enjoy Canons, Vol. 1 for free on Bandcamp. Go to http://erikblood.bandcamp.com to download. 

Canons, Vol. 1 is 4 meditative grooves featuring Palaceer Lazaro and Fly Guy Dai of Shabazz Palaces and Andrew Prinz of Mahogany. 

I wanted to give this to you while I'm working on the new album, which is halfway there. These pieces are meant to be listened to while you're alone, whether traveling or just high at home. By all means, listen with a friend if you're so inclined. 

Love,

Erik

Black Weirdo / Black Constellation

Hi. I'm Erik Blood, and I'm a Black Weirdo. This Saturday afternoon at the Bumbershoot Festival in Seattle I'll be joining a panel discussion with other Black Weirdos.
Come on down: http://bumbershoot.org/lineup/artist/black-weirdo/

I'm also part of Black Constellation. We (Ish and Tendai of Shabazz Palaces, OC Notes and I) are performing "Expanding the Now: The Continual Line" next Friday September 5th, at the Frye Museum.
Get there early, and RSVP now. More details here: http://fryemuseum.org/calendar/event/5577/
If you haven't already seen the current exhibition "Your Feast Has Ended" at the Frye - featuring Black Constellation members Maikoyo Alley-Barnes, Nicholas Galanin, and Nep Sidhu - you NEED to go. Now. Amazing.

Show July 2nd (and new music coming…)

Next Wednesday July 2nd, I'm playing with Irene at Chop Suey, Seattle.
Also on the bill: S (Jenn Ghetto of Carissa's Weird), Web of Sunsets and Finch Wolfe.

Excited to play you some new shit. Come listen and groove.

Also… some new music coming. Promise.
