December Update

I've spent almost half of December in Kansas visiting family. I am blessed with having a lot of flexibility with work and the means to come home when needed. I want to thank everyone for their support of our family at this time: the community of Lawrence has been an incredible gift.

As far as news while I've been home: The Dylan Paul Band played a sold out Jazzhaus again, this time with our good friend Scott Smith and his new backing band. We also continued work on a music video with the very gifted artists at THROUGH A GLASS PRODUCTIONS to be released with the new album "Growing" in a few months. As a side note, they're in the process of securing deals in Australia and South Korea with a possible theatrical release in Taiwan. Mixing and re recording on the album continues in both Lawrence and NYC. Merchandise has been contacted, so we have little left to do but get it finished. It's so easy to say.

In the realm of musical theatre composition I'm really excited to have started working with Robin Smith on some electronic songs that I can apply nicely to scene's in which Thomas creates and dialoges with his computer in "The Oregon Trail". And oh yes, I will finish and produce that musical if it kills me. And it might.

I've now been in NYC off and on for 5 months. And auditions are going really well with Broadway and Off Broadway contracts and record label options coming in. While I've been in NYC I became a regular facet of NYU TV studio shoots and have enjoyed my time to work on on Camera acting as well. I'm also applying to the following Graduate programs for an MFA in theatre:

(no they are not in any order)

UC Irvine

NTC

UCSD

ACT

Rutgers

So wish me luck, because without it all the work and preparation might never factor in.
