Spring is in the air here in New York City and we're awakening from our winter hibernation.  We've been quiet for the past few months, hibernating and ruminating, and for good reason. 

Earlier this year we joined independent record label Modern Hymnal Recordings and we're super excited to be a part of this.  They're a cool label who believe "the recorded sound is our modern hymnal, and we are preachers of that gospel."  Preach! 

On tap is a deluxe version of City Life - The Five Borough Edition - with a couple of brand new tracks and remixes.  Look for it to drop in June on Modern Hymnal but in the meantime download the free "Whatever Man" single here.  Click on the screaming lioness. 

Hey everyone!  

Happy upcoming holidays to you!  2011 was a good year for Like So.  The City Life EP was released, played a lot of fun shows during the year with many cool bands and now we get to end the year with a new video for "Whatever Man".

Fall in New York City saw the birth of Occupy Wall Street as I'm sure you know.  Director Josh Smith and I already had a plot for it in mind for this video: a poor boy meets well off girl kinda story.  Josh suggested we set the story in and around OWS.  It seemed fitting and I thought I'd be a different kind of way to document what the movement was at that time.  This was filmed before the eviction in November.  What we saw down there was inspiring and hopeful.  Here's to the rebirth of people power in 2011 and let's look for more of it in 2012.  

Makes for good times on a sunny, spring NYC day.  On April 30th we spent a beautiful afternoon filming shots for a City Life video.  Good times were had by all.  Many thanks to director Josh Smith.

And I have no business being on this little thing, but what the hey...

So we're hanging out in rehearsal one day and the in between songs conversation turns to our mutual love of Genesis.  We decided we'd attempt one of our favorites, "Back In N.Y.C." from the Lamb Lies Down On Broadway.  We busted that one out at last show at The Trash Bar here in Brooklyn and I don't think we did too bad!  

I'm also so excited to let you know the EP will be available for sale here May 10th.  Finally!!

Like So has been busy this late winter playing shows all through Williamsburg.  The 'burg tour if you will.  We have some footage from our last show at Bar Matchless you can check HERE.

We also got some love from DJ MOJO who is not only one of the best promotors to bands in town but also has a show on Break Thru Radio, Maximum Music.  He kicked off his show with "City Life."  Check out out HERE for lots of music goodness...

We played to a few brave and happy souls who stayed out late to party in the basement of the Delancey.  Thanks to all who came out.  My friend Ebedet took a few pics.

We're putting the final touches on the City Life EP.  Soon to be released and muy excited.  The songs were recorded and mixed at The Dub Kitchen and The Kennel Recording Studios by producer Prince Polo.  Look out for it in early March...
