A new project I've been involved in, Wages, just finished up the first round of mixes. Another project with Hank Sulivant producing. I'm the engineer, bass player, and even have a song that I wrote and sing ( a first! Nick Campbell lends heaps of harmonies to make me sound even better ). James Dedakis on the drum kit. Check out all of the tunes here.

"Loneliest Revolution"

"Will Blood Flow", the song I mentioned above.

I had the pleasure of engineering the Colour Revolt's upcoming release with Hank Sulivant producing. Everyone involved where such pro's, we really had a well oiled machine running in the Church at Echo Mountain. 7-days , all of the basics live to 2" tape, tracking done.

What's more astounding is that we weren't rushed, and there was a good deal of creative decision making going on despite the tight timeline. My favorite kind of session. I can't wait for the release date so that I can share the finished product.

The kind folks over at Daytrotter put up a nice post about Arizona. Sean Moeller was in Asheville for HatchFest earlier this year, and I had the pleasure of recording some great musicians live to 1/4" tape, daytrotter style. It's so awesome to work with folks that have a real sense of style, principle, craft and detail. I mean, hand drawn illustrations, thoughtful writing, and a commitment to quality old school recording methods. Good dudes for sure.

New “Hear My Work”

So I've been busy on the road and in the studio, and neglecting my reel. I added a few tracks on a new pge entitled "Hear My Work". It's a few songs that I've done this year that I'm proud of. Enjoy!

Here's one that was added. Valorie is the real deal, and a fun gal to make a record with.

Valorie Miller - "Autumn Eyes" - Available on CDBaby

Arizona's Glowing Bird (Bass, Co-Engineer & Co-Mix w/ Danny Kadar), Valorie Miller's Autumn Eyes (Produce, Engineer, Mix), and Mad Tea Party's Found a Reason (Mix), were on a short list of good local records made this year in WNC. Right on. All good records, all fun to work on. 2009... you're on notice...
