This is a drawing I did that will be used for the cover of the first issue of MONO. MONO is a zine based out of Sao Paulo, Brazil. According to editor Isadora Fernandes, the issue will focus on the backstage and personal lives of people involved in the DIY music community. An interview with the Red Dons, conducted by Ruivo, will also be featured in the issue. In other Red Dons news, I just completed a Brazilian tour report. It will be published in the Mountza Zine from Greece.

The Chemicals recorded an album last month. I am not sure when it will be released. Look for it to be available this fall. Tuesday night will be my last live show with the group. If you are in Portland, please tune in to 90.7FM on Wednesday night. We are preforming live on KBOO’sLife During Wartime. I am leaving the group to attend the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
