new music: picture perfect by jay legaspi


Some new music to check out... Jay Legaspi recently released his first full length album Picture Perfect. I've heard a couple of songs, including the title track, and I'm digging it. Here's some more information about the album, in Jay's own words:
Picture Perfect is my first full length album. It's been a labor of love, with a lot of personal struggles, roadblocks, and re-records, but finally it's out. I could go on for days about it... but I won't bore you.

The main goal of the album for me and the band was to create something that was different from our live performances which are mostly acoustic. So we opted to use everything from horns, sampling software, and even string quartets. It seems like a typical story, but for us, to be able to do all this was a dream come true.

The first single is the title track, Picture Perfect, which is a song I wrote because I think real love is better than any movie can portray, and sometimes, life imitates the art.
The album is available now on iTunes. You can also order a CD on Jay's website. For more information about Jay Legaspi and his music, check out his Facebook page here and his YouTube channel here.
