Hey Soul Mates,
back to the lab at Karma Frog tonight. We pre-tracked a few new songs. The first two got knocked out pretty quickly. It helps when I have a clear vision of what I want a song to say or do. And these are brand new tunes. Never heard before by anyone other than the few people involved in the project and Mom and the Missus. I think they are going to translate well, under Adam's direction.
Thank goodness, Adam is patient with me. By the end of the session, the third song, I was running on fumes. I rearranged the song a few days ago and as a result threw out half of the lyrics and rewrote the hook. After Adam figured out what the heck kind of beat I was looking for and I put down the scratch vocal, we were in the clear. These tracks are being prepped for our next drum session on Monday with Kevin Jarvis. The songs are quite varied: a jaunty Southern Soul song; a big old ballad; and the third, which will be Disco-riffic for your dancing pleasure.
On Tuesday night, I had the honor of joining Adam and his Chaos Band on stage at Cinema Bar for his 70's night show. I sang Roxy Music's "Love is the Drug." That was a lot of fun. We followed that with "Stayin' Alive" with Adamd and me duking it out on the falsetto vocals. There were plenty of other cool covers performed including "Brass In Pocket" and "King Tut." I hope to be at Adam's next 70's show on June 14.
Peace & Disco Beats
