Was a lot of fun working with Mark Curtis And The Flannelettes on their new single. Great group of guys and a fantastically crafted song. Make sure you get along to the launch later this month.

I did some student workshops in the school holidays. These guys did three one hours sessions that incorporated writing and working as a band, tracking and editing as well as basic music production. Check out a snippet of their song in this video. They had a ton of fun. I can see a lot of value in this format and would be keen to do more of this type of thing.

Had a lot of fun doing some session drums for The Howling Fog this week. Tracked at Ghostnote Recording Studios by the man himself Jimmy Balderson. Such a great engineer. Mega drum sound. 😍

2019 resolution to get better at social media. 2018 was full of great projects and I barely posted anything.

First cab off the rank. Learnt and tracked 9 songs on drums in a day at Ghostnote Recording Studios, with the previous day being used to set up.

On to guitars for Captain Hellfire and The Wretched Brethren. Pretty solid wall of tone. Finlay McTavish definitely has an very efficient tech / twin brother in Doug Clark.

Last week I had the pleasure of tracking bass with Dylby from Captain Hellfire and The Wretched Brethren. A nicer gent you will not find. He bought some sweet gear and we pulled a rad sound. He also has the most amazing custom made pirate bass in existence. Yarrr!

Recent guitar tracking session. Orange Rocker30, Mesa Stiletto Deuce, Vox Lil' Night Train, custom made Herad 4x12, Vox 2x12. Mr Mark Curtis laying down some sweet funk styles. Pieces of the puzzle coming together for Rhys Howlett's LP.

Working on Rhys Howlett's LP. This was a fun day of live tracking, no overdubs. Beautiful result.

Lot going on at the moment. Need to get better a social media. Look at this amazing bass rig. Vintage Ampeg V-68 (full fat and warm) underneath the Acoustic (DFA1979 solid state fuzz!) also splitting the signal and running into a sh*tty Samick and smashing that into a 1073 pre for another fuzz flavour. Along with the DI and multi mics there were 6 channels of bass. So many options to highlight different parts of the song.
