Gregory Slay - RIP Jan 1, 2010 - January 1, 2010

I'd like to take a second to talk about my friend Gregory Slay. He passed
away today Jan 1,2010. I cannot reiterate this enough: he was a HUGE influence
on me and my music. I was lucky enough to be neighbors, and then really good
friends with him for years at The Villa Elaine. He was a magical guy that
mesmerized everyone he was around. Kind, gentle, savage musician, unquenchable
artist. He made a difference in my life and in the lives of everyone he touched.
I can't believe he's gone, but google some Remy Zero or Sleepwell of O + S videos
and tell me if he's not the coolest dude ever. I'll miss you Gregory. We all will.
Thank you for being my friend.
Brandon

We are ecstatic to see that Amoeba Records (LA) has endorsed Wild Imagine! They have displayed the CD prominently under New Releases (endcap) with this description.

"BRANDON MCCULLOCH & THE DEADBIRDS - WILD IMAGINE - fine new local pop combo from the frontman of the late great Silver! Gently chiming paisley underground style guitar tunes with nice chord changes, thoughtful choruses and wistful lyrics, a little bit Church, a little bit Kinks, a little bit Go-Betweens. nice stuff!"
