It is great to have creative friends, it is great to have friends in bands. It is even better to have friends in bands that make music you want to hear. I’m lucky enough to have met Rubin at a job a few years ago and was excited to receive an email with the following:
12 FOR 13. At the beginning of each month throughout the year 2013 I will be releasing one of these projects online for free. It might be a full album or it might be a single song. It might be an actual movie or it might be a soundtrack to a movie that doesn't even exist. It will cover most every band that I have played in from 2000 through today as well as other projects I have worked on over the years. Many of you on this email were/are/will be a part of these projects.
This embodies the ethic of Common Folk “It’s about igniting a thought or sparking a smile, just trying to disrupt the monotony of the all too common daily grind. Common folk doing uncommon things.”
The first project he is releasing is The Perps
