Rhythm Up
Rhythm Up is out! It's now live
on iTunes and CDBaby.com.
This record was made for the love of fine guitars and vintage
amps. It's a project made simply for the sake of art. See
some of the videos and pics below to peak into the making
of Rhythm Up.
Recording took place at a relatively
fast and furious pace - to capture the creative flow as it
happened. Basic tracks were cut with drummer Ray Levier at
the amazing Clubhouse Studios in Rhinebeck - engineered by
owner Paul Antonell. Overdubs were tracked at The Lab with
engineer/Co-Producer Vincent Miraglia, using a fine selection
of classic amps, mics and preamps we assembled just for the
task. Damn, we had some of these amps cranked to where the
rafters shook! Thats how you get that magic tube sound.
Several sessions also took place
with drummer Shawn Pelton at SP's Beat Palace in good old
New York City. Additional overdubs of guitars and bass tracks,
from frettless master Joe Capozio and the late great T Bone
Wolk took place at my studio, Holiday Farms - where I also
mixed the project. We did a cool session for drums and percussion
at the amazing-sounding Tabernacle in Mt. Tabor, NJ. Guest
guitarists Hernan Romero and Sam Broussard cut tracks at each
of thier home studios, as did string master David Henry in
Nashville. Last but not least, Chris Athens mastered it at
Sterling Sound. Honestly, I couldnt have done it without the
help of great friends and guests!!
