How do we get Timothy a big time opening gig?   The world needs to see and know of his talent.

We get a copy of Killdragon to Jim at a show Dr. dog style?

Once he gets signed I'm sure it will follow. I know he's been in talks with a bunch of labels (Saddle Creek and Nonesuch are two that I know of), so its inevitable. Don't know who he's going to end up with though.

I can fill it up with my salty tears.   

Those would both be nice labels eh?   I guess that would be for his next album or would they also market Killdragon at that point?   That whole process is interesting to me.

I guess they could re release killdragon. He's demoing for the new one now.

thanks Dave!  i think this writer's summary captures it perfectly:

"There is a heartbreaking reach that Showalter and Strand of Oaks gets to with all of his grief-stained and grounding lyrics - all of which read as long-harbored confessions and brilliant odes to the stumbles that have been made over the years."

and this:

"It's pretty heavy and yet, Showalter here summarizes it all with a spectacular folk song that will kill you in ways you didn't expect it to."

Strand of Oaks just signed with Billions booking agency, alongside Bon Iver, Vampire Weekend, Nick Cave, Arcade Fire, Mumford & Sons ect.... Pretty sweet. Probably start seeing them in some higher profile opening slots soon

So cool for him! 

It's the first of many cool things to happen for him and Strand of Oaks. I'm
pumped.  :) Gonna miss the frequent WB shows, but I'm thrilled.
