Los Angeles-based Mike Bloom is a singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist who is co-founder of The Elected with Blake Sennett of Rilo Kiley and a member of Julian Casablan- cas’ band. After years of contributing to critically acclaimed recordings by Rilo Kiley, Jenny Lewis and others, his debut solo album King of Circles will be released June 7th on Pierre de Reeder’s (Rilo Kiley) Little Record Company.All of the songs were written, most instruments played, and every song produced and mixed by Mike (with the exception of a few co-productions). His songwriting is at once uniquely his own, and curiously familiar. The warm, bedroom intimacy draws listeners in - there is a wealth of instrumentation and sonic detail augmenting the vocal/acoustic guitar center- piece. King of Circles was originally funded by actor Tobey Maguire before landing at de Reeder’s new label.
Songs with more than a little in common with the canon of
Carson McCullers abound on King of Circles. The scornful
woman in “Floataway Sinner” extracts revenge on her hap-
less victim, saying “Hold on baby, don’t you float away sinner,
Gonna pay for your acts, and that’s all” – her closing shot
reveals a moral compass off course when she explains, “...us long shots ain’t supposed to win clean”. “Butcher’s Paper” started life as a guitar piece he recorded – when Jenny Lewis heard it she whipped out a set of lyrics and recorded it over Mike’s playing and sent it back to him. An evocative love song with starkly vivid lyrics resulted with this refrain, “Wrapped in twine, the butcher’s paper, my bloody heart inside”. Longtime friend/bandmate Blake Sennett (Rilo Kiley, The Elected) contributes vocals on “Til It’s Over” (The Elected have an album coming out in May as well, Mike co-produced and plays a multitude of instruments) The title track addresses emotional ambiguity as a form of revenge; “Dry Land” paints the pic- ture of a long marriage at its expiration date with gentle acoustic guitar and Bloom’s lyric, “...this is the empty glass at the party’s end.” “Devil’s Island” can be heard in the new Sony Pictures thriller, The Roommate.
With his packed schedule touring and doing recording sessions, the songs were written and recorded over a period of years. “Some came directly from my bedroom demos and landed on the record almost untouched,” he explains “Some are much older than others, but they still felt like they belonged here.” Touring in the US and Europe, he honed the songs the old fashioned way, in front of live audiences.

ELEGANT & SOPHISTICATED WITH THE PERFECT SIZE AND STYLE!
Color: Black
I love the unique design of this clutch! There's THREE ways of carrying this clutch! 1) I can add a strap to make it a crossbody purse, 2) It has a wristlet strap, 3) Plus, the best is the long strap on the side of the clutch that allows me to place my hand through it and securely hold it in such a fashionable way! I get tons of compliments on it. I bought two, one in red and one in black. The leather-like material is durable, and the fixtures stay gold and do not fade. I use it daily, so it gets worn out within a year. The rubber edges would unfurl or get cracked. The zipper can break if you stuff the clutch too much, and the edges do get frayed easily, but for the cost, it's worth it! You can dress it up or wear it casually.

Awesome bag!
Color: Silver
I LOVE this bag! I use it daily. My only wish is that it was larger, although it does hold much more than you might think.
I tried to post a pic of the inside and all it holds, but the app won't let me right now. I'll check back later.
Until then, the list includes...
Credit, check, and insurance cards (all 8 of them),
2 pens,
A pen light,
Fingertip spray bottle for alcohol,
Mirror,
ID,
Several business cards,
Folding phone stand shaped like a credit card,
Charging cord,
Charging battery (a hefty one with qi charging),
Prescription sunglasses inside a box for protection,
A magnifying card with light.
My phone is too big to fit in the zipper compartment (Note 10+), so I usually use a lanyard. I COULD fit it into the main compartment, but it's tight. I attach my keys to the loop with the wrist strap. Otherwise they would scratch my phone if I choose to put it inside. An expanding bottom along with just an inch added to both the height and length would make all the difference for those needed items.
If the owners/designers read this, I'd request a divider going lengthwise as well to keep my phone separate and protected. It doesn't have one, or a pocket for a large phone. I do believe, however, that the latest folding Razr or Samsung's Z-Flip would easily fit into the pockets provided with no problem.
