A Bit Cagey’s Live Debut!
After months of songwriting, niggling with music software on our laptops, and tinkering with toy pianos, we finally made our live debut on March 26, 2011, in Boston, MA. We were honored to headline a night of incredible performances by amazing acts by runjumpfly, Elephant Sky, John Clements, and Dice Motion. It was so much fun to share our music with so many friends and who came from near and...

My Turn
While Sajida endures 106° temperatures in Cairo, I’ve been sweating in Berklee classrooms with broken AC at a much more manageable 87°. But I’ve been packing the information in and am working hard to apply new mixing concepts to A Bit Cagey’s upcoming EP.

Greetings from Cairo
This summer I’ve traded in an ever-exciting New York City summer, (complete with free concerts, Shakespeare/opera/jazz in the park, open air-film festivals, and all the gourmet ice cream one can desire) to spend the hot months of June and July in Cairo, Egypt.

We're getting a lot of work done
Name this movie: “None…more…..black.” “It’s such a fine line between stupid…and clever.” “The sustain, listen to it.”  “I don’t hear anything.”  “Well you would though, if it were playing.” “It sounds…fuckin’ barbershop…Barbershop raga.” No, but really. We are getting lots...
