my favorite mayer hawthorne jam about non committal sexual fluidity gets the RAC remix treatment. still a banger (no pun intended). grab it for free99.

it's one o'clock in the morning and you're buzzing like a honeybee.

somewhere in-between the most entertaining work day (scroll down for deets), i received an email saying that i won mayer hawthorne tickets courtesy of the scenestar. so after doing the movie thing for most of friday, i nightcapped back into the arms of the love of my life - music.

after seeing my future husby more times than i can count, i have to say that this was their sharpest performance. kudos mr. hawthorne and HYFR to winning free tickets!

and so concluded the best day i've had in forever.

your looks have me putty in your hands now.

mayer hawthorne record release shows have a special place in my heart. for his debut release in 2009, my brother and i had a great time hanging around a bunch of red heart shaped balloons at the roxy. then sometime around midnight, i turned 25, drank my weight in whiskey and then proceeded to fall into my own kitchen sink (yes i said kitchen) to the utter delight of my brother at the end of the night.

while saturday night's celebration for his recently released how do you do, didn't cause me to fall into any appliances, it was still an amazing night of music. i've seen him perform a variety of times over the past few years and he's become such a polished and confident entertainer. blending the old, new and a few covers in a sharp red suit, it was quite the affair that concluded with a massive confetti explosion and his version of "i've got a crush on you".

and yes that is the set list, which now has a home on my fridge.

today you. tomorrow me.

watch my mayer, my man get his "brangelina" on in the new clip for "the walk".

i bought #howdoyoudo yesterday, did you?

i think my spaceship knows which way to go.

there comes a time in every individual, where breaking points become visible. whether it's sparked in the work place, the home or the bedroom - once exposed there is no turning back. 

for my future husband, he's been blinded by that hourglass figure for the last time. despite demanding her immediate exit, his message is still delivered with his signature charms and timeless affections.

whatever the situation - dramatic or mundane, some stranger will save you.

it's a michigan tripod of goodies in the new remix from ghostly international producer and hometown boy, shigeto. taking on a track from legendary detroit guitarist, dennis coffey featuring none other than ann arbor's finest mayer hawthorne, it's a dance floor ready reworking that utilizes an atmospheric pattern of bells and beats, while continuing to build upon the soulful vibes of the original.

welcome to the motor town. booming like an atom bomb.

the recession has affected many aspects of daily life. from your favorite places closing down, to people you love living jobless trying to make ends meet. its influence has also made its way onto subplots of popular tv shows and has become a platform for many conscious street artists, authors, singers and hip hop heads. 

despite currently residing in los angeles, my michigan-bred favorite isn't turning a blind eye to what the recession has done to the motor city he calls home. his latest single, "a long time", serves as a love letter to the state. although he calls out faceless names and unfortunate situations, he ultimately sings about hope and rejuvenation in one hell of a catchy way.

hey you with the pretty face. welcome to the human race.

throw a good cover song in any live set and i'm a happy camper. well my future husby is going one step further to ensure my happiness and will digitally drop an EP full of covers titled, impressions later this week. for a taste, check out his spot-on take of the ELO classic, "mr. blue sky".

how you gonna win when you ain't right within?

a few days ago i got to check out stones throw first direct-to-vinyl show featuring my future husby, mister mayer hawthorne. the space was rad although the free drinks were a tad too sweet for my liking. and what a dapper double breasted jacket!

side A:

make her mine

maybe so, maybe no

gangsta luv

i need you

i wish it would rain

side B:

no strings

green eyed love

just ain't gonna work out

side C (yes, a magical third side):

since my gnarly blackberry pics don't actually do the place any justice, peep la weekly's recap with pictures HERE.

maybe so, maybe no.

we all know my future husband is on the road right now and he's been kind enough to entertain us with his choice food options in select cities.

so, come dine with mayer vs. food (and his occasionally squeaky voice).

besides, of least he's not being all gross and trying to hid his boobs with jackets, like a certain other man vs. food. imjussayin!

put the key under the mat and you know that I'll be over there.

the fine art of the booty call. not everyone has mastered the technique. it takes specific amounts of charm and the perfect amount of push not pull.

stones throw crooner and mazda enthusiast, mayer hawthorne, is showcasing his approach in his latest single produced by local faves, classixx. download it below.

90% of my mind is with you.

if im in your starting five, you will never need a sub.

my favorite track off stones throw soul revivalist, mayer hawthorne's 2009 debut, a strange arrangement, finally has a video. the one-shot clip for apostrophe heavy "your easy lovin' ain't pleasin' nothin'" is simple in theory and absolutely cute in execution.
