It’s difficult for me to not feel like I have multiple personalities. Perhaps people have infinite personalities, but one default. Or perhaps their personalities all get sifted through the same spout or lens, and so it appears to be one though they are many.
I especially notice this tension within my own music. There are times when I want to be a singer songwriter, captivating a room with nothing but my humble words and guitar picking. Other times, I want to stand out, to be more aggressive, to catch people off guard with glitchy beats and strange synth sounds.
While The Lovely Few continue to venture further into outer space, this week I will have a chance to come back down to earth, at least a bit. I’ll be playing two solo performances with my friend Steven Fiore. Steven is releasing a new record and playing a few shows between Charleston, SC, and Nashville, TN. I’ll be opening for him this Tuesday at Red Door in West Columbia, SC, and Wednesday night at Coffee Underground in Greenville, SC.
Please come hang out with us! I’ll be playing guitar with some minimal beats I’ve made using Figure on my phone. I’m excited about doing something new. Steven is always amazing. He really is. If you live in South Carolina and haven’t seen him, you really need to. If you have seen him, you know you need to see him again.
Join us. This Tuesday and Wednesday. Stay tuned to The Lovely Few’s Twitter handle for more, and be sure to check in with Steven on Twitter and Bandcamp (where you can get his music) as well.

A really nerdy band.
