Into the New Year

After the holidays, now is time to get back into the swing of running this on-the-side studio. While I have conjured some New Year resolutions, I have one to add to the list. Once a week, every week, I will be posting an update, no matter how lame, on the OOD blog updating the world on happenings within the studio. Starting today, posts will appear sometime every Monday. With that said, here we go!

Directly after the holiday, my husband and I made a trip to Philadelphia to visit some friends and to attend a one of the last shows by The New Deal.  No, not FDR's series of programs for economic growth, the music group from Toronto.  Although they sound like high produced tracks, The New Deal plays everything live, like their first album, This is Live, tries to share. The New Deal is one of those groups which actually look like they love what they do. 

Since the guys took the stage, they had huge smiles on their faces and chatted with the crowd between sets. They played two sets during the night and their enthusiasm was contagious. The greatest part is that The New Deal plays music solely for playing music.  They encourage taping and photography at their shows. Here are some songs on my space.  Check out some of the photos streaming on Flickr. 

Aside from breaking back into the concert-going scene, many items have been added to OOD on Etsy in 2012 already. Below are some of the photographs that have been posted in this new year. These are all listed as 8 x 10 prints, but can be ordered either by messaging me on Etsy or emailing me at OneOceanDesigns@gmail.com.
