"The Guilty Ones" from Spring Awakening

If you, like me, wondered what Duncan Sheik had been doing since 2003 when his last hit single, "On a High" played on the radio, here's a quick update: he recorded and released White Limousine in 2006 and released a (probably premature) Greatest Hits collection in 2007. Most notably and unexpectedly, however, he composed the music for the Tony award-winning musical Spring Awakening, which depending on your opinion of musical theatre and Duncan Shiek as a musican, is an incredible blend of the two.



You can find the album on iTunes and there's also a touring production going around the country (for more info go to: www.springawakening.com). My track recommendations are "The Guilty Ones", "The Bitch of Living", "The Song of Purple Summer" and "And Then There Were None".

By the by, I really like the little music player you've been doing. Awesome! I've been trying to figure out some more ways to get audio on here, so that's awesome.
