Hi. It’s Dave again. My hot rock band Valley Lodge made a hot new music video for our song “Come Back to Bed” from out latest album Fog Machine, out now on the excellent Tee Pee Records. The video features a sweet cameo from John Oliver, some sweet animations by Scott Johnson and Phil Costello, some sweet logos by Dave Bamundo, and some illustrations by me and Scott Johnson. It is basically the best video. Watch it above!
Still street,

Hi. It’s Dave again. I just wanted to tell you that I had the pleasure of doing the excellent Live from Here with Chris Thile show again, this time live from the State Theater in Minneapolis, which was freezing. Tom Papa, Broken Social Scene, Madison Cunningham, Vijay Iyer, Sharon Day, and a bunch of other fine folks were on the show too. You can watch my full set above. This time I talked about the time I opened for Snoop Dogg, the popular rapper.
Thank you,
Dave Hill

Hi. It’s Dave again. From before. Anyway, I just wanted to let you know that I had the pleasure of sitting down with Malcolm Gladwell recently to discuss Norwegian Black Metal, Witch Taint, and other incredible topics for his excellent new music podcast Broken Record. I encourage you to listen to this episode immediately or I will stab you or something probably if I know me. You can listen to the whole thing on iTunes or wherever else you find incredible podcasts.
Thanks and have a great day,
Dave Hill

Recently, I schooled the at-risk youths at Earthquaker Devices in Akron, Ohio while demoing their awesome new Aqueduct Vibrato pedal. I don’t know if I made a difference in their lives, but I do know it’s a pretty sweet pedal.

Hi. It’s Dave again. Recently, I had the pleasure of appearing on the legendary podcast Keith and the Girl. These two are pretty much the OG podcasters and have been doing it for almost 15 years now so you know they ain’t messing around. It was an honor to be a guest on their program and I hope you will stop doing whatever else you might be doing right now and listen to the episode am totally on by clicking right here now.
Have an unstoppable day,
Dave Hill

IFC Slightly Off Saturday: Magic Michael (NIGHT #1) from Chris Molinaro on Vimeo.
If you’d like to be deeply disturbed, amused, and perhaps even a bit aroused, watch these interstitials I made with my friend Chris Molinaro for IFC in which I play “Magic Michael,” a shirtless magician who lives with his mother. Chris wrote and directed these spots and I acted like the wind. They are airing on IFC on the weekend during their movie screenings. I hope you enjoy them so much.

Hi. It’s Dave again. I am excited to share with you the debut music video from my extremely extreme Norwegian black metal band from Gary, Indiana, Witch Taint, the band inspired by my Black Metal Dialogues emails. The video also features my Witch Taint partner Phil Costello aka Matthias Backwards and comedian Clare O’Kane. This is the best song and video. We made it to celebrate our debut at the legendary Wacken Open Air Festival in Wacken, Germany, which is awesome.
Dark regards,
Dave Hill
