I also found this old concert footage of the band Pennylane performing at Kauai Christian Fellowship in Poipu, Kauai in the great state of Hawaii. This is also a short segment and I believe my camera died which is why I didn’t film it all or something (memory is foggy). Anyway, check out this long lost fragment of Pennylane in a time long since past, and enjoy what you see. Sound is not good FYI and it was a small room with bass overflowing and drowning out the rest of sounds.… Continued →

16 years ago Indie Vision Music released a little known EP by a little known emo/indie rock band from Kauai, Hawaii known as “Pennylane”. So much has changed in the years since both professionally, musically, industry, and personally, that those years seem like such a blur.

I am excited to announce the 2017 remaster of the now classic Pennylane ep “From Paradise To Parking Lots” is finally here. Go download it off the IVM Bandcamp page/ for Free here. All 5 tracks and Intro have been carefully remastered by Sef Idle over at Simpul Studio from the original recording. Fans of Acceptance, Jimmy Eat World, Thrice, Armor For Sleep, and Taking Back Sunday will find something to appreciate about the early 00’s music of Pennylane. In addition to this free download, I am also thrilled to announce that I have decided to do a very limited run of this ep on Cassette Tape in Red.… Continued →

I have decided to revisit the much adored IVM Release from Pennylane titled “From Paradise to Parking Lots“. Seth Stephen of Simpul Studio is working on a digital remaster of the original files (before it was mastered for CD release back in 2004). This 6 track 2017 remaster will go live in September sometime. I am decided to cut the 3 “Live” tracks from this remaster and just have the original studio files as they were intended to be heard. I am also going to get new artwork designed for the album cover and possible limited tape release of this Ep, the first physical print of this Ep since the 2004 (out of print) CD.… Continued →
