The fall of 2019 is shaping up to be busy, now that the studio space is done and word is getting out. I tracked and mixed six songs for a new band featuring Jake Levee of Canadian Rifle, who is among the first punks I met after moving to Chicago 23 years ago. Even though he is playing bass in this band (whose name is in the process of being changed) he brought over this Music Man HD130 which I sold to him circa 2007 and has been his main amp in Canadian Rifle ever since. It has gotten some serious road wear since Jake took over ownership, and has had the transformers and speakers replaced along with a number of other repairs. Every time I see the Rifle play I get a twinge of regret for selling it - it always sounds amazing and held up the bargain for the recording.
Apart from great songs, good vibes and excellent playing, Jake and Kate would like to remind us all of what is really important for a successful recording session:
In the next month I will be recording the new hardcore band Dog Flashback, and working on a new record for Primitive Teeth. I also have several projects in the works that are still being finalized. That's a lot of bags of chips in my future.
