Several years ago now, my friend John Goodmanson asked if I would be interested in being “the singer” on some weird electronic songs that he and Steve Fisk were messing around with in their then-copious spare time. Obviously, I said yes, and a merry makeshift trio was born into an erratic life of sessions in front of the computer at Steve’s home studio, sessions marked by occasional proclamations of, “Man, this stuff is good. We should get serious about this…” which were naturally followed by prolonged periods of downtime when we all had other stuff to do. Though at the outset, the idea was to make our songs as simple and obvious as possible (inspired by the brilliant KLF book “The Manual”) it soon became clear that, with the possible exception of Sara the pug, obviousness was the strong suit of no one in the room. Thus is the ongoing quest of the Society of the Golden West.
