BIG NEWS: Three new albums out at CdBaby & Itunes: Soundtracks for Giant Place Detail, Lucky Days, and the compilation (Short) FIlm Music Volume Two! There are now 12 albums of CN's music. The compilation features music from several recent short films including Abidjan, Bemvindo, S&M, Mary's Journal and Case Closed. These three albums feature CN as multi-instrumentalist playing all the instruments (including cigar box guitar, acoustic bass, whistling, treated and slide electric guitars, kalimba, melodica, bamboo violin, sioux drum, treated piano and many more.) Werewolf, a short Film by Matthew D'Abate, recently screened in Williamsburg was well received and an EP of the score (plus music inspired by the film) will be released soon.
