Joel P West quietly released a new EP before Thanksgiving, featuring five new tracks recorded at his home in Golden Hill and in the living room at Habitat House. If you caught one of Joel's few solo sets this year, then a few of these will sound familiar. Have a listen below, and be on the lookout for details about a special release show in February.
Shoulder Seasons is available for download on Joel's Bandcamp page for $5.

Long time collaborator Jeff Durkin and Breadtruck Films are at work on their next documentary, but they need your help! Hoping to travel and film in Burma for their newest film Art As A Weapon, Durkin and crew have turned to Kickstarter and their community to help get them there. Check out the trailer above and a whole list of incentives to invest on their Kickstarter page.
There's also a chance to participate in person this Monday at the Whistlestop Bar in South Park, just steps from Shepard Fairey's mural of a buddhist monk. Breadtruck will host a fundraising event and mini film festival on November 28th from 6-9pm.
*Update A second fundraiser event has been added on December 6th at The Pearl in Point Loma. Jeff's previous film Working Class will be screened along with a silent auction and drink specials.

If you've been following Sezio for a while, you'll remember way back in 2008 and 2009 when we often inhabited a vintage downtown space called Luce Loft. Art shows, concert series, ASR pinata parties, you name it -- needless to say, we had a good time. Well, we're excited to announce that we've rented the space for the whole month of December and have a couple great events lined up!
On Thursday, December 15th Sezio will launch its 2012 Membership Program with a big art show & fundraiser down at Luce. This will be your first chance to get your hands on our twenty twelve membership kit, which was curated and designed by Wes Bruce. There will also be a big group show featuring a ton of our favorite artists. MIHO Gastrotruck will be parked out front on J St. and Starlite will be serving up Mules and Colonels at a pop-up bar. More details on this event very soon.
To close out the month and year, Sezio will host a black tie, projection-filled, New Year's Eve dance party on the 31st at Luce. This will be the best NYE party you've ever attended. The night will feature a projection installation from Charles Bergquist, which will be synced up with the evening's countdown, along with a vintage photobooth manned by Tommy McAdams and a DJ set by Jamuel Saxson. Pre-sale tickets for this extravaganza can be reserved now.
