    vision for MAJ: a network / orchestra of musicians & performers … no single highlighted act, many talented people collaborating and switching for the sake of each song. it’s hard to fully articulate, but I chose this picture b/c it shows the importance of each musician, yet gives room for anonymity.

    “Summer Daze” has never been more true than this morning. 

Summer daze has come and gone
And now I’m standing in the rain

My naked toes miss the sand
Now they’re covered in drenched paper shoes

And the small shore waves can’t hide the truth
You and I were too good to be true

So I wish we were there

    MAJ @ the Red Line Tap 02.12.09

    These are the pictures that my friend Jeremy took while MAJ (Tim & I) were jamming out at the Red Line Tap.  I must admit, this night was a bit nuts … but like all of our other open mics, we learned a lot.  Anyway, thanks Jeremy for the pictures.

    MAJ playing “2 String Breakdown” —-> OH MAN WE’VE GOT A NEW VERSION OF THIS SONG … IT’LL MELT YOU AWAY!!





    Musho Man … aka OSHUM


    crazy pictures that I just dug.

    … Jeremy’s artistic pics …


    During this time we were hitting “Summer Daze” … a wonderful song that it’s in the works lyrically.


    … the morning after … Jeremy is an ass.

    MAJ - Open Mic 1 - 02.02.09

    Last night was the first of MAJ’s February Open Mic Month.  MAJ is an acoustic soul band consisting of Tim Musho & myself (Dan In).

    This being our first open public performance, the experience couldn’t have been any better. The whole day Musho & I were a nervous wreck about the gig.  Luckily we had friends there to push us (J & Emily) to the Tonic Room for their Monday Open Mics.

    Here’s our set we did:
    - 2 String Breakdown
    - Summer Daze
    - Can’t Take My Eyes Off Of You (MAJ remix)

    What I realized about MAJ is that were great at easing the audience into the performance.  We weren’t like most of the performers there, who were up in people’s face & started with talking introductions & stories.  Rather, we just let our music do the talking. We started with 2 String Breakdown b/c it’s a pure instrumental … there was no need for a story.  Unplanned, the lights were dim when we started & the host, feeling our vibe (chill & soulful), knew when to raise the lights up to show the audience who we were.

    By the time we got to Summer Daze, we had everyone’s attention.  People, to my surprise, weren’t talking … just listening … which really surprised me b/c I didn’t know our music was that charasmatic. We wrapped it up with our own jazzy/acoustic cover of Can’t Take My Eyes Off Of You & really tore up the jam part.

    Perhaps this was just first time luck … I don’t know.  But I got to talk to some really great musicians and heard some very chill music.  More importantly … MAJ played!
