January 5, 2010 - Happy New Year everyone. Doing a little new year cleaning and I dusted off some of my old albums looking for inspiration. Currently, I'm happily lost somewhere within the first 5 Led Zeppelin albums. Yes, I'm old enough to have bought Zeppelin on vinyl. Old is new. New album this year! Peace
December 24, 2009 - Wishing all in the Quahaug family happy holidays and a peaceful New Year. I'm off to New Orleans for a little R&R coupled with fantastic food & great music. Joyeuses fêtes!!!
December 11. 2009 - We had quite a night tonight at Mattie McGrail's solo debut CD realease party at Fritz's in Keene, NH. Mattie put on a great show. Check out the 'Videos' page on our website for a look at Mattie's performance of '177'.
November 14, 2009 - Well we survived Friday the 13th yesterday without any serious injury other than some minor coffee hijinks. We been getting a lot of email from friends/family/and fans recently asking about the new album. Here's where we stand: 5 new songs completely done and mixed. Another 4 in various stages of completion and I'm trying to decide between a couple of songs from the Stereophonics to cover. I love their material so it's a hard choice, but a fun process to go through. We're working hard and will get the album done as soon as possible. In the meantime, our first album is available as a FREE download for a limited amount of time. If you want a higher fidelity download head over to iTunes or you can order a physical CD with great cover art from our website. Thanks for your ongoing support. Eternal ClamNation - Kaika.
September 29, 2009 - Ahhh Fall...the trees are turning colors in New England and we got our first hard frost. That can mean only one thing...Where the hell is the new record??? Truth be told, I'm taking my sweet time and making the best record I can. There are some rough demos up on the demo page, but I have the fun problem of having too many songs to choose from this time around. We continue to record and try different arrangements. The songs we've fnished are FAN-tabulous so I'm excited by what promises to be a great sophomore record. You'll just have to continue to be patient and trust that we will get it done. You will love it...TRUST ME. Peace Kaika.

- Record & release the long overdue follow up album.
- Stabilize our music industry team
1. Partner with a legitimate music publisher who believes in and shares in our musical vision.
2. Partner with an artist centered company to assist with our next album recording/release.
We stress the word 'partner' here.
The industry is changing and we want to work with open-minded individuals who aren't afraid to creatively navigate the new frontier with us.
We want to hit the ground running in 2008 and we are interested in speaking with experienced individuals/companies that can help us take our music to a higher level. Contact us if you would like what you hear and are serious about exploring ways we can partner together.
