Thanks to everyone who has been streaming “Somewhere on the Highway” for the last eight months. Following a successful independent radio run, we have returned to the studio and set our sights on record number three. This record features a new cast of collaborators who we will be introducing shortly. Roman Patterns live band coming soon. In the meantime stay on the lookout for @shakyjake new solo album, Kinda Wild II, to which I contributed backing vocals. A lot to come from @shakyrecords in 2026. -MF

@romanpatterns is the man behind this amazing artwork. Looks incredible. Especially on vinyl. We still have them in stock on my website so don’t snooze. The mountain is full of my connected eggs and it was really incredible working with Mike on the artwork. Thank you to everyone that’s picked up a vinyl or CD, and thanks to all of the amazing people that helped make this album come together.
Classic indie hits, @shakyrecords jams, deep cuts, and selections from the Roman Patterns catalog. Beginning a playlist series to share the music that inspires me, obscure tunes you may dig, and seasonal favorites. Here’s your soundtrack for July. Clickable link in story.
