Ears, Mixes and more releases

I got my first rough bounces of the recordings we did two weekends ago. I’ve been listening to them all morning and love the crunchy drums! Way to go popsicle Pete!  I’m getting together with Scott Monday evening next week to have a sit down listening sesh so we can come up with some additional arrangements and finalize our recording schedule. There’s tons to do but it is all very exciting at this point.

It’s gonna be a great night. I’ll be sure to post some goofy pictures of me hugging everyone.

Check out my debut music video for Pearl off my upcoming EP being released in April 2009. It was produced by ROSE Film Productions (http://www.trosefilms.com) and directed by Tyson Rose.

EP Recording

Scott and Pete (of Provincial Parks) and I are currently recording drums, guitars & lead vocals for my upcoming EP Our Hands.  We are recording in Trenton with our friend Brent Bodrug of B-Group Music ( http://bgroupmusic.com/)

I’m writing this from the studio right now. It’s this great church from the 1920’s that Brent purchased this past summer and converted into a live room.  We’re getting great crisp drum tones and the space delivers a great natural reverb on my vocals.  We’ve been taking some video footage of us working (and goofing off a bit) that you can find up on the site.

The next step will be to get back to the city to finish off the vocals & add additional instruments. Here are some pics of the space.
