I might be catching you all late, but better now than never — Happy Holidays from Anchortapes! Hope you all are spending time with loved ones, whether it be family or friends (or both).



For Christmas this year, I gave my family individually made DVD/CD packages containing a mix of songs I listened to a lot throughout the year, and an edit I made of old Kostka family films from the 1930s – 1950s. I took about three hours of my grandfathers footage and cut it down to just under 5 minutes, and to the Daniel Rossen cover of Judee Sill’s *Waterfall*.



Anyway, I thought I’d share the edit and photos of the packaging with you all. Hope you enjoy!

Also, my girlfriend Rhonda surprised me this Christmas (along with the help of graphic designer Chris Peel) by making Anchortapes stickers!

It’s tough to come up in a town full of 21+ venues when you’re underage, and Long Beach is full of younger acts. But if you haven’t heard Korey Dane’s identifiable songwriting or his incredibly calming voice, you haven’t been paying enough attention. Korey is easily one of the top singer/songwriters in Long Beach, and, [...]

To end the year for Anchortapes, I really wanted to record a session with The Fling. And what better way to do it than inviting a bunch of friends in the neighborhood over to participate in the session and, ultimately, get a little drunk.

So, the day before we recorded, I hit up Dustin and [...]
