Sundance OOOM articles

Melissa is at Sundance to screen OOOM, and the festival is well underway. OOOM's premiere screening was last saturday, and there's two screenings still to come! Some articles have popped up, and I added two of them to the articles archive.

"I've always lived in the ephemeral, psychedelic heart world to the point where I wasn't able to have a cat, a stable home or a stable relationship. Now, after this three-year journey, I've learned how to take care of a cat, pay my bills, be my own manager, and be organized, so I can make something out of all these dreams that I have."
So crazy, she's feeling sane

"There is, of course, something to be said about craft," she continues. "A writer has to write for thousands of hours, has to do it every day, to be good – it's the same thing with being a musician," she points out. "I couldn't wake up tomorrow and be a painter, but if I were to decide to devote three years to studying how my hand moves on canvas..."
Crossing over at Sundance: Melissa Auf der Maur

Welcome to the new melissaaufdermaur.org

As you see, some things have changed around here! I made a new design to celebrate this site's transition into running archive instead of focusing on news, and ofcourse to emphasise Melissa's new music.

In case you missed it, Melissa released a 3-song EP with new music, as a forebode to her new album, to be released early next year. All this is being done without the support of a record label.

You can buy the '...This Would Be Paradise' EP here! If you'd like to get your hands on some Melissa merchandise like t-shirts, posters, stickers or to get the EP on vinyl, have a look at Melissa's store!

New live pictures

Here's some new pictures taken at the past two MAdM live shows in Hudson and Montreal, taken by the lovely Andew, Daniel and the amazing cornershopstudios.
