Juna: Home

I think everyone (almost everyone) should write and record music, and all music should be freely exchanged. No money. No buisness. Just free human expression. anyone can listen to anyone elses music with no hinderance except subjective preferences. like napster in the old days but instead of famous peoples music being shared, it would be EVERYONE's music, and everyone would listen to music based on aesthetic value and without respect to celebrity or marketing. True artistic equality.... a step towards Global equality!!!!

Honor Forte has joined the band. he is playing bass, percussion, samples, slide whistle, and some accordian. come see us at 123 on Jan. 30th.

So, Chris is no longer playing with us. It was a mutual and respectful break-up. We are now seeking a multi-instrumentalist to do things like, auxillary percusion, simple key parts, samples, maybe a little guitar and/or bass and whatever else we can dream up.
Practices with the three of us have been very producrive and fruitful. I really look forward to hear how the songs pan out with a 4th member filling the spaces and contributing a fresh vibe.
serious recording to start soon i think/hope. shooting to finish recording by spring.

Well, the news for today is: I am still working on new(er) material. As a live band, Juna is working on the songs that will be on the next album, as yet untitiled. We are not planning to play a show until we have set comprised of all new songs. Cameron Keenan has come on to play drums, leaving Chris to multi-instrumentalize.
The next album will be very different from yesno in many ways. It has kind-of a native american feel to it. Lyrically it is politically oriented with a radical bent, relating the tragedy of the native american plight/genocide of the 19th century to what is going on today nationally and globally. The metaphor is more of an aestetic choice, but the analogy is pretty relevant I think. Musically, it's still pretty dark, but poppier in places and more up-tempo than yesno. Has kind-of a "wild" sound.
