FREE Music - Naming TreesWe thought to ourselves, “Why charge money for our album?” That is a good question. We would much rather give our album away to anyone willing to listen. So we did. Now, anyone can download our album for free on our website. We are very excited about this. I mean, who does not like free music? I know we do. We did not get into the music business for the money. So now we are not even in the music business, we are in the music charity business. Feel free to download and share our album with all of your friends.

Do you want to use our music in a video? We will allow anyone to use our music in any type of video. Weather it be an independent film, documentary, skateboard video, or just a random podcast. We will allow you royalty free use for free. The only condition is that you give us credit including a link to our website, contact us to let us know what you are using it for, and send us a copy or link to the video. We hope you enjoy our album!!

When we first released the album, we tried to sell it. We always wanted to just give our music away, but we also wanted to make a living doing music, and there is no money in giving stuff away. We have been questioning our paths in life and realized that we didn’t want to charge money for our music. Sure, we could make some money, but that is not why we started writing music in the first place. We just want people to hear the music we create. That is the only thing that is important to us. I have been through a lot of hard times in my life. Music was always my refuge. My only goal is to create something that can be that same refuge for others.

Jae and I have debated giving our music away since before we even released the album. It took us a while to see the light, but now we realize that we are not doing this for money or fame. We just want people to hear and enjoy the things we create. So the music will be free, probably from now on. The struggle for us was always, how will we make a living? But the answer is simple. The same way as everyone else, working a job. It is a small price to pay to be able to give our music away to anyone willing to give it a chance.

We are really excited about this decision. So tell all of your friends. You can download all of our music on our website for free now!

I have been spending so much time developing the Naming Trees website. We now have a lot of really cool functionality. I put a special section that is only for our Facebook fans. There is a code that will verify if you are one of our Facebook fans and let you acces the Fan only section that is full of free stuff including 8 songs that we do not plan to release. It is very exciting.

Album Art Our debut album, Alex, is available today! You can pick up a copy in the Naming Trees store, on iTunes, and on Amazon MP3. Physical CDs are under mass production and will be available soon.

In this album, we based many of these songs on things we have learned while in ecstatic states. We are really big into exploring other realms of consciousness, mingling with the divine, and discovering the the things that reside deep in ourselves. We tried to portray some of the personal battles we have been through over the past few years in this album.

We wrote some of the songs while out camping, which is a favorite activity of ours. There is something about being alone in nature, away from all the hustle and bustle of the city, that allows you to connect with something deeper. We would have loved to have recorded this whole album outside in the wilderness, but it was too much equipment to bring.

We poured our hearts and souls into this album and we hope you guys get as much out of listening to it as we did writing and recording it.

Enjoy,

Naming Trees
