Recording Session 4/30/16 StarTrack Studios (formerly HesDeadJim Studios) - Queens, New York


We finished the recording of our sophomore CD tentatively titled "A Little Traveling Music Please" this afternoon finalizing Backing Vocals for the tracks "She's Pretty" and "She Made This House A Home" and mix down of both tracks. 


On a positive note Joe, our dynamic lead singer has joined the ranks of the roadways of America and is seen here after our arrival. I am happy to say that we got home safely and without incident (O.K. maybe a few A-hole drivers in the other cars of course) as well.


Notice that Thomas is using the "finger in the ear" method which is known to Professional Musicians collectively as the finger in the ear method.


The Digital track sheet.


Chicharrones were a big hit with Thomas' son Lennon as was the White Fudge Oreo's (see photo below) and both culinary firsts for him.


No Drums were harmed or played at todays session but how could I resist not putting an Objet D'art on top of them.


This man is very tired, practically falling asleep during mix down & quite unkempt (I am being nice here). He has since gotten a one hour nap in but remains unkempt.


Joe with his newest acquisition, an Alvarez Acoustic Guitar.


A Deer.


I am particularly proud of the backing vocals we performed on this album as I am not a singer by any stretch of the imagination so this video clip is mainly my rant on this collective Blog.
