Day 5: Studio 2011
Day 5: Studio 2011 – Robert Sledge on the upright bass. Serious class on this song! (Except for the way he’s wearing his headphones). The band recorded Living With You on Day 5. I decided on the upright at the last minute instead of the electric bass, and Robert nailed the part. FIrst week of tracking down!! I did not want it to end, but there will be tons more to come.

Day 2: Studio 2011
We tracked three more songs on Day 2 – My Hurricane, Shut My Mouth and When. I’m just doing scratch vocals now and recorded in the same room with the guys behind a barrier. Incredible team for this CD: Rob Ladd on drums, Robert Sledge on bass, Mike Garrigan on electric guitar and Jim Crew on piano/keys.

Day 1: Studio 2011
It took several hours to set up the drums but we still tracked the bass, electric guitar and drums for 2 full songs. “Many Splendid Thing” and “On My Own”. Wrote one of those in 2002 and the other in 2004. Great to finally get them down on tape. (Ok, not really tape).
