The new day job has been taking up a lot of my attention, but it's been worth it for some of the major surprises. The following is part of a viral marketing campaign for one of our new books. You'll find all 4 episodes below. Check it out...and get in the know. (...this definitely wasn't in the job description):

hey all Sorry for the Laugh Lounge debacle a few weeks ago. The (last minute) show was cancelled on account of some of the other scheduled performers not showing up...ahem. In any case, just a few updates: 1. NEW SONG! I've uploaded the demo version of "bittersweet connection" on the website and on myspace. This one is a bit of a mix of old school Depeche Mode and some buzzing guitars (Jesus and Mary Chain/ My Bloody Valentine?)....and yes...there are beats. Be sure to stick around…

I can't believe it's been two years already! So, to celebrate the release day of my first CD...I'm going to be spotlighting some of those old songs...and ushering in the new -- in what may be my only show of the summer. So, expect the mini-covers, the beats, the lofi/folk/indie/metal/dancerock. And lots of FREE stuff! Including: CDs, bumper stickers, and secret prizes throughout the show! I know there are a bunch of you in NYC just for the summer or even just a few days (I'm calling you…

"Hot dang! Those beats are crazy!"...I'm hoping that's what you'll be thinking when you listen to the TWO NEW DEMOS from "revenge made easy" that I just posted! The lofi/metal/folk/indie/dancerock revolution continues 1. If you've been out to one of my live shows this year, you know that I've been opening with "T & A" ...but you haven't heard it like this! (And read the lyrics before you start complaining...sheesh.) Check out the new groove over at www.myspace.com/abechang 2. Next is "settle…

Check it out I'm going to be featured on Imaginasian Radio! (and hopefully on ImaginasianTV one of these days). If you've signed up for their mailing list...you've already seen this.

Surf on over to: http://www.theimaginasian.com/ "Gossip, News & Randoms: What's going on with Asian and Asian American Artists Abe Chang - Abe Chang has been around the New York City Asian American music scene for quite…

1. Myspace news first www.myspace.com/abechang I've been seriously neglecting the power of myspace...so I thought I'd make up for it by posting (the BRAND NEW almost final versions of) "epistles from the brokenhearted" and the new version of "under lock and key" (the remix?--you'll see what I mean when you hear the beats and the killer synth solo). Be sure to surf over and check out the new songs (and the new insane dancerock beats) there first! "revenge made easy" should be done before…

Just wanted to welcome any of the teachers and students from Pingry that are visiting the website! Hope you enjoyed the poems and the music...and for one special class--the " importance of gum"... you know what I mean! Thanks for making my visit such a fantastic experience. I hope that I'll see you guys soon! NEXT GIG: I'll be playing with my good buddy Josh Bicknell at Nightingale on April 17th. We'll be tryng to collaborate on something special...more news at the date draws near!

LOTS OF NEWS 1. Thanks to all the folks that came out in the snow for the Laugh Lounge show. (oops...I forgot to even put that up on the website...sorry...it was February 13th). For those of you that missed it... **ADULT LANGUAGE** The little clip of me playing "Jesse's Girl" is just around the 2:00 mark (not the most flattering camera angle, not really indicative of the live show... but whatever...it sounds pretty rawkin' for 30 seconds): 2. NEW SONGS! "revenge made easy" SNEAK PEEK!…
