Dallas Show 5/28

I'm playing a show with the amazing artists Rene Hell, Soft Healer, Eyes&Wings&ManyOtherThings, Wet Hair, Matthew of Diamond Age. This will be the first live show of Xander Harris. I'm really nervous and I will probably vomit profusely.

Patent Red High Heels

Purchase

Italians may do it better – ice cream, genuine leather, synth splatter – but everything’s still bigger in Texas. Like this X Large redux from Austin’s X Harris. He calls side A the “high heels remix” which is chop-shop talk for shoegaze if yr shoes happen to be red patent pumps. Less gore than before, more vast unknown than he’s ever shown, side B soars like the flight of a DJ navigator who’s recently returned home to realize he’s left the 80s far behind, it’s almost 2012, and everyone he loves has aged and moved on without him. But the force is still strong with this one. If Xander Harris had a hammer, he’d beat down John Carpenter’s door, turn that Carpenteria into a Danceteria, and make that grave-waver Sweatt. Finally, an escape from New York.

Sick of the Radio Interview/Meeting The MAN

I did an interview for Sick of the Radio that you can check out here.

Last night I got to meet Brian Keene here in Austin at the World Horror Convention. Why is that so important, you ask? This is the man that inspired me to make my record. He wrote the book "Urban Gothic" (Purchase Here) that became the muse for my album of the same name. Brian Keene's fiction has gotten me through some dark times and has generated a wealth of inspiration. This was a very majestical thing to have happen. My face is hilarious in this photo because it will be one of the only times that I will actually look visibly shocked. I don't usually get nervous but I had a total nerdy "I'm not worthy" moment.

West Coast 2011 Summer Tour

Looks like cities and stuff is getting moved around so stay tuned. I'll post dates and venues when I get everything submitted. Thank you for your patience!

I'm hoping that this tour falls into place per being shackled by the amount of time I get from the day job. It will be nice to meet everyone at the shows and get away from the Texas heat.

xoxoxo,
Xander
