This bird is flying me to London
After CMJ, the Billboard Conference, LA Kings game, and completing all my SU work, I got some time to connect with Liam in Los Angeles. It has been too long but we’ve mapped out a few things and are looking for a few more bands that are interested in full time touring. It could be a management or label deal (or both) if we love what the band is doing. Time to hit some shows. -Ulf
I’m about a third of the way through a month long tour working on my main gig, teaching at Syracuse University. Last week I spent a few days at CMJ in NYC where I got to present as part of the conference. Currently I’m in LA and finished the Billboard Film & TV Conference. I’m attending classes and meeting with a few other people for SU. In my downtime I’ve been getting a few more details online about Aux. Lack of updates have not meant lack of work. We have a presence on the west coast now with Liam holding things down in CA. In fact, he’s making his way to LA now so we can connect. We’ve got a few management clients with new music coming. We’re also starting the A&R process again for the label side. Reach out if you feel like you should be considered. More to come soon.

I have been on the road for the better part of 3 weeks now. I have had the chance to check out a few breweries and sample drinks from different areas and it has me thinking back to my Merit days. We wanted to do a brewery tour. I might need to make that happen sometime. -Ulf
The Brilliant Light on Spotify.
I had a little time before a meeting in Dumbo and it got me thinking, I would love to try to swim from Brooklyn to Manhattan.
I cleaned up the facebook page a little since it has been long overdue. If you’re already connected there, check it out to go get a free download of an album from The Brilliant Light. If you’re not connected there, the like button will get you access to the download. If you don’t want to like Aux but still want the download, email me and we’ll chat. ulf {at} auxrecords {dot} com
We’re working even closer with Bill Moldt these days. He fronted (and still does) The Pilot Lies but has spent the last few years focused on music video production with his company Awarehead Productions. We’ve got him as the latest edition to the Aux Management roster. The video above is one that he did for Hurricane Bells. For more of his work stop by awarehead.com.
Is there an iPad specific tumblr app?
My recent schedule has been too rigid. Each day seems like it’s a meetings and a predetermined class followed by workout or two and a little time with the kids.
Exactly like today:
Meeting at 9.
Another at 10.
An interview at 11.
Office hours at noon.
Class at 3.
Home at 6.
Time with the family for a bit.
Workout and class prep to end the day.
I set the schedule and topics and it’s fairly predictable day-to-day. To break off from this for a day, I’m going to have my class pick tomorrow’s topic. It’ll be related to the course in some way but we’ll get into where they want to go for a day. I’ll report back on this. I’m expecting it to be a lively morning.
