Albion Amps Artist

It’s official. I am an Albion Artist. Albion makes some great amps and cabinets and I feel honored to endorse such a good product. I use the TCT50H, TCT35C, GLS412, GLS212. So far since I have had them, they have been an asset to have. Great tone and super versatility.

update!

I’m guess I’m pretty bad at updates, so here it goes.

I had the opportunity to mix a live show of Usher’s for tv and, I am told, a live dvd. Spent some good time with his Music Director Johnny Najera. I look forward to seeing the final version of it. It was a lot of fun working on.

I spent some time with drummer for Ke$ha, Kill Hannah and My Darling Murder Elias Mallin. We tracked drums for his project My Darling Murder. Since he was in town, he also played drums for a client of mine. He is a joy to be around (now that he smokes electric cigarettes) and track.

I went with my lovely wife to see The Beatles Love by Cirque Du Soleil for my birthday. It was amazing.

I mixed an EP for a LA group Go Sunday!, I mixed an album for Minneapolis Taj Raj, I tracked a song for an ABC pilot (that seems like it’s crazy funny).

I was asked to track at Glenwood Place Studios for the upcoming Macy Gray record. All live, no editing, amazing. Her band is crazy talented of course, but when she went and sang, it made everything shine.

I did some songwriting with artist Lacey Connor and tracked vocals with her. Producer ‘Tadpole’ from Chicago is finishing up her songs.

I am finishing up an EP for Avenues, from Milwaukee, started songwriting with singer Derek Jordan and have some other mixing on the horizon. I hope I keep up with this more often.

Mixing and more mixing

So I mixed and slew of songs since I moved into the new space. I mixed a record for the band Taj Raj from Minneapolis. I had met songwriter / Vocalist Benjamin Burwell almost 8 years ago and was happy that he called me to reconnect. This band should do quite well.

Speaking of doing quite well, I also mixed an EP for the LA band Go Sunday. Its good rock music through and through. I look forward to working with these guys in the future.

Coming up this week is more mixing for the artist Usher.

So I have moved into a new studio space and I love it.

It’s a full studio with a 21 x 15 live room, 11 x 8 isolation booth, control room, lounge and bathroom with a shower.

It has been designed to make people comfortable as soon as they enter the studio. Come check it out and lets make some music.

I was given the opportunity to mix the Live performance from Justing Bieber and Usher at the 53rd Annual Grammy Awards. I enjoyed the process and I am glad that that they are happy with the results. Check it out here.
