Something no one has been able to say in over 25 years - new album on the way from the legendary Boston band Morphine. More to say about this later....

NFTs are a historical footnote / laughingstock, "the Metaverse" is a multi-billion-dollar write-off / boondoggle, and Sora has now been shuttered. Just a reminder for the next time a tech grifter tries to use words like "inevitable."

Happy 100th (!) birthday to the Soul Shop Steinway, who rolled off the line in Queens, NY on November 19, 2025. In honor of her centennial I wrote a little bit about her history, and made a playlist of some of our favorite recordings.

A beautiful piece of writing on fandom by @amandabeland.bsky.social, filtered through the lens of this unique and challenging moment we @celticsnba.bsky.social fans are experiencing

I'm a huge Celtics fan now. Nobody is more surprised than me
I've watched every Celtics game this season, writes WBUR senior producer Amanda Beland. I don’t walk away from my friends when things get tough and my fandom isn’t conditional either.

Bass #reamp, killer sounds thru the old standby Shop B15. Not all the stuff is vintage all the time, though, proven by stellar fuzz sounds from this DOD Carcosa, and the Vanguard Audio V4 FET condenser, far and away my favorite newer microphone on the scene. #soulshop

My favorite part of walking home from the Shop at 3AM is running into my wabbit neighbors. This time it was a special moment between these two lovebirds, an obvious analogue to myself and @amandabeland.bsky.social. (I won't post the video of the flirt-jumping, cause that's between the two of them.)

Still grooving high on last weekend's live performance by @ryanleecrosby.bsky.social here at the Soul Shop. RLC is currently on his "Boston to Bentonia" tour, please check his itinerary and catch him along the way if you can. Absolutely transcendent.

A newer member of the stable of weirdo #solidstate amps at the Soul Shop, this 1960s Standel Studio XII has been working hard lately as a #reamp machine. It may not have the rep of the tube models, but it's incredibly valuable as tonal seasoning on tracks ranging from pedal steel to accordion.

For my track, "You & I," off the new Soul Shop Xmas album, I took a steal from Dan Fogelberg and ended the story with my reharm of "Auld Lang Syne." Use this chart for your New Year's Eve gig, or rewrite it yourself, it's folk music after all.

Haven't introduced myself yet but let's start with this - the new holiday album from The Soul Shop (produced & mixed by me) is coming Thursday Dec 19, ten years to the day since the last one dropped. Medford, Massachusetts is the original home of Christmas music in America (more on this later).
