| Ghosts.in.Mirrors |
| Tue, Sep. 19 2006 |
Ghosts.in.Mirrors is a microscopic view into the
depths of humanity; past, present, and future. Broken
rays of light launched ahead to circle back and return
to the glass from which it arose. Places less
traveled become roads worn thin. The faces disappear
only to remind us that we are all welcome here.

| Fri, Jan. 6 2006 |
JP has been in the studio working on an e.p. set to be released sometime this winter/spring. He will be in the studio for the next couple of weeks putting some final tracking down on the songs and then mixing. He has not yet released any sneak previews of the e.p. but plans on introducing the material soon.
"I've had a lot of people ask about what it sounds like...I just tell them that it is really good stuff. We are using some instrumentation that sets it apart from "humming the tunes" and I'm really excited about that."
