"Love's Halloween" Now Available

Hello Everyone,

The latest single by Gary Schwartz – “Love’s Halloween” is now available through iTunes, Amazon, CD Baby and at all other fine digital download sites.

Gary, who is the former drummer for The United States of Existence and the Jigsaw Seen had originally intended to make “Love’s Halloween” available only through Bandcamp.  However, many of you had requested that I make it available through iTunes and Amazon as well. You spoke…I listened. Here are the links.

iTunes

Amazon

Even though I support Bandcamp and CD Baby because of their better quality audio download options, I realize that many love the convenience of these other popular sites. Hope you enjoy.

I am starting the process of creating my next single (solely in my head) which will be called “It Just Is". Ummm, I kind of like, Solely In My Head. I’ll need to incorporate that in somehow. “It Just Is” was thought of soon after I experienced a Hemorrhagic Stroke on 10/24/14. "IJI” won’t be available until Late, Late, Later this year. 

In other news, the new tune by Mark O’Keefe - “Drop Dead” is now available at Bandcamp. I had the honor of providing drums, percussion and arrangements or as Mark puts it - Arrangements and All Things That Go Bang. Check It OUT:

Thanks so much for all your continued support and well wishes. Happy New Year and remember - supporting independent music and artist continues to be The Right Thing To Do!

Peace and Happiness!

New Single "Loves Halloween" Available Now!

The latest single by Gary Schwartz – “Love’s Halloween” is now available as a download through Bandcamp, iTunes, Amazon, CD Baby, etc.

Gary is the former drummer for The United States of Existence and the Jigsaw Seen. He is joined once again by his long-time musical collaborator, producer and friend - Mark O'Keefe. 

“Love’s Halloween” was supposed to be released a few days before Halloween but was placed on hold since I had a Hemorrhagic Stroke – bleeding of the brain… I know it sounds like a ghoulish Halloween story but unfortunately it’s true. I have since made a full recovery and am very grateful to all who assisted in my care. And a big thanks to my family, friends and fans for all their love, support and well wishes.

“Love’s Halloween” is sure to bring you haunting comfort not only on Halloween but all throughout the year.

Delay

Hello All,
First... I would like to apologize for the delay with my new tune " Love Halloween". Unfortunately I suffered a Hemorrhagic Stroke on 10/24/2014,  Once bleeding of the brain was detected, I landed in Los Angeles -  ICU for 10 days. Numerous angiograms determined that allowing the bleeding to stop on it's own was the best scenario for my situation.

I am happy to report that it appears - so far - that I have made a full recovery with no noticeable residual -  negative side effects. Thank goodness...ICU was directly across from the Scientology complex in Los Angeles??? I am grateful to all the staff, doctors, nurses and technicians for helping me get to this healing point. And I can't forget family,friends and fans for all their love and support. Thank you so very much. Before the stroke...BS...I completed the drums/percussion for the new Mark O'Keefe tune " Drop Dead"- which  has nothing to do with Halloween, Look for that release to drop sometime right after 12/25/2014.

So... on to my belated Halloween song.... once vocals are complete, hopefully by Christmas, I will send out an announcement of its release. I will make it available for free through Bandcamp but  will  accept donations.
Remember, supporting Independent  Artist's continues to be "Where It's At!
Peace and Happiness.

Gary Schwartz
