i know it's been quiet for much too long in these parts, and so i wanted to write a very long overdue entry to help get the word out about an album i helped produce for a very very good friend of mine, by the name of DAVID CHO!
back in early fall, david flew all the way across from rainy land, seattle, to work on an album with me. as a good number of you might already know, dave has toured with me in the past, all around the west coast, and even the good old midwest! we had so much fun on the road that we decided to extend some of that CHO-CHUNG time by working on a sophomore release of sorts for the pluck-smacking wonder, David Cho. (pluck smack is a musical term that david cho coined, that refers to a way the guitar is played - you can ask him all about it - in fact, david if you're reading this, i think an instructional you tube video is in order).
as you can clearly see in this photograph, we had good times. look at that pouting lip!
ok, so yes, on a more serious note ("note", get it? like a musical "note"??), the final product came out to be something that both Dave and I are very proud of! (Probably one of my favorite projects I've worked on!)
Jinny Kim makes a guest appearance, and one of the songs was produced by good friend John Bonaventura who has played electric guitar with me on a few tours!
"THE VEIL" is now available at :

(and of course, at live shows - so go catch a show already, if you haven't)
Since its release, it has been on the BEST SELLER'S LIST every month!!! So, this is where we need your help. Try listening to some of the samples.. if you enjoy his music, get yourself a copy! Buy your friends and loved ones copies! Let's keep him on that LIST! Otherwise, we might have that thing happend like it did on American Idol, where enough people didn't vote and Michael Johns and Carly Smithson got booted off the show way prematurely! Sad.
hmm, these are other places to visit if you want to get to know David a little:

Thanks so much for reading, and in the words of Denise Williams, "let's hear it for the boy".
(and ... I just dated myself).
