Live at Haus Mitt, and a free download

I didn't get one of the coolest things about music until I saw the Smashing Pumpkins live a few years ago. They're my favorite band, and I know every song by heart, but they played a version of this song called "Shame" that I had never heard before. "Shame" is actually one of my least favorite Pumpkins songs, but they totally re-did it sometime in the last decade or so, and it was awesome.

I have a point, I promise! We played the Beer and Pretzels party at Haus Mitt at Stanford the other night. First off, it was awesome--I haven't had that much fun at a show in a really long time. Second, it struck me how much "Can't Let You Go" has changed since we released it on the album.

On the album, it's actually Sarah on the drums, vocals, and guitar, since she recorded it before the band really got off the ground. But last year we took it on with a fresh start and made it even better. Every time we play it, it develops just a little bit more, and it's been really fun.

Check out the latest incarnation by downloading this recording of us playing "Can't Let You Go" live at Haus Mitt the other day. Download here.


Enjoy the song!
