Chain and the gang hit Disneyland

Last week me and the members of Italy's Miss Chain & The Broken Heels went to Disneyland in sunny Anaheim, CA. I followed them across the theme park with a camera and captured rides across all lands, dance sequences and good ol' Americana tourism. All psychedelic foregrounds were incorporated from Disney grounds.

Productions + Presentations


Allow me to present you with my friends. Its all Southern California music here. Besides recording Wonder Wheel, I've recorded and helped produce a number of local bands since 2003. Only now with a larger repertoire and network, the music has coalesced into a bright and happy zone that can't be held back much longer. Some of these names you have heard before, some not at all; either way you will enjoy the lush collection of California dudes and dudettes.

2 songs each from: Tan Dollar, Pearl Harbor / Puro Instinct, Wonder Wheel, Cosmonauts, Muddy Flowers, Dash Jacket, Stellarphone and Moon Pearl
