It’s now up at the Disney site, here. (If it doesn’t start playing right away, click on “Dig Down Deeper – Dance to the beat of Zendaya’s inspirational anthem!” which you’ll see on the right side.)

This just in: The first (2008) TINKER BELL movie is airing at 5:30 PM tomorrow – Saturday, November 5 – on the Disney Channel, and the music video of our song “Dig Down Deeper,” performed by Zendaya, debuts during the first break which should be right around 6:00 PM. Dig!

Yesterday I got a terrific surprise in my inbox–a fan from the Bay Area sent a video of her teenage son singing “Rewind” impromptu in the car. This is the kind of thing that makes us feel life is worth living, makes us grin from ear to ear. Check it out: I’m officially a very [...]
Phoebe Snow is dead. Amidst all the other news going on, and our myopic focus on our show 24/7, I failed to notice until today that Phoebe Snow died on April 27, just about a week ago. In 2002, I was at a recording studio in Englewood, New Jersey, overseeing the digital transfer of some [...]
The tapes are currently in Andy Parsons’s basement. They’re pretty valuable and reusable in and of themselves, so we’re pretty certain that they’ll sell. But if anyone wants a piece of GrooveLily history, complete with unreleased songs from the Are We There Yet? sessions from 2003, then you know what to do. Hit the link [...]
Longtime GrooveLily fan (and NASA employee) Koji Mukai recently made a comment on the NASA Blueshift site, recommending “Home Fires Burning” as a potential song for astronauts to wake up to. Sir, we applaud your suggestion heartily. Thanks for bringing this old neglected chestnut out of the fire and into orbit! Here’s a home demo [...]

Our 5-year-old son Mose woke up on Veteran’s Day, yesterday, and told us he’d like “to meet a soldier.” Brendan said, “well, your mom was one, did you know that?” and told him a little bit about how I had served in the Army. But I’m not actually a veteran; I’ve never been to war. [...]

I started playing violin in the school orchestra when I was eight years old. (Not because I had been yearning to do so specifically, but because I was told I couldn’t play the trumpet without front teeth; I was in dental limbo between my baby and adult sets, and wouldn’t be able to make the [...]
Forgive me for being inconsistent with these “weekly” demos. It’s been kinda tough lately–and I’ll get into that shortly. But for now, here’s this week’s song, way more “adult contemporary” than we usually roll, but it still feels appropriate to the subject matter. Here’s “Leap.” Leap (rough demo) by GrooveLily http://groovelily.bandcamp.com/track/leap-rough-demo If you like it, [...]
I’ve been doing various kinds of yoga for a few years now (and recently Brendan has gotten into it too, specifically the bikram variety) – and I absolutely swear by it. I feel more relaxed, serene, stronger, and even a bit taller…and the yoga is a perfect balancing counterpart to what I’ve done for many [...]
