Always an honor to create new music with Will. The new album “Home” is available everywhere on streaming and is coming on cd very soon. My brother Jeff Oster joins us on this one… I’m playing bass… and producing the whole shebang, plus handling the mix and mastering. It was seventeen years ago in September that I met Will for the first time…. such a great and inspirational ride since then!

Wow... 20 years ago! This was commercial studio #2 of 4, located in Newburyport's Tannery mill building. I was there from 1995-2009. Sometimes I hear the sound of the larger tracking room on records and it's so weird! Big thanks to Sweetwater for sharing the word about what I was up to back then!

A lovely review of guitarist Randal L Meek's new album. It's a subtle, human, organic record celebrating his Hawaiian home. It was such a pleasure to help bring this album into the world!

"...a welcome reminder of just how beautiful life can be."

The album features Randal on guitar, and contributions from friends William Ackerman (guitar), Charlie Bisharat (violin), John Curtis (mando & uke), Eugene Friesen (cello), Michael Manring (bass), Jeff Oster (flugelhorn), Premik Russell Tubbs (alto flute), Jim "Kimo" West (guitar), and Noah Wilding (voice). I'm in the mix on piano, bass, and accordion.

Review by Kathy Parsons. Dreaming Under the Banyan Tree is the anxiously-awaited follow-up to composer/guitarist Randal L Meek's 2022 release, Longings. While Longings wasn't Randal's...
