Downtime, happy.
Shout out to the boss @livausten for last night’s performance at @thelongroadfest with my boys @tiagodiasbass @pringledrums and @charlietottmanguitar. Her, and our, progress as a live act takes hard work, time, and at times courage and it’s a privilege to be part of the ride. Shout out also to the technical team on this stage who made life easy for us. . . . #livemusic #guitar #guitarist #musicaldirector #md @suhrcustom #ukcountry
So good to hang with @gabzsapka and talk endlessly about guitar rigs. The joy of festivals. Sounded great with @katy_hurt, and looking good to get the role in the prequel to The Hobbit where Gandalf is a roll-up smoking blues/rock shredder. #legend #guitaristsunite @thelongroadfest
So much love for this band. Said to Liv on the way home ‘There’s not one of them that I’m not really excited to see when they arrive’. Amazing gig at @thelongroadfest with @livausten. @charlietottmanguitar @pringledrums @tiagodiasbass #musicians #ukcountry #fairground #longroad #festival #alpha #soalpha #guitarist #bassist #jamesmcavoy
Tonight’s working environment in Folkestone will look rather like this, as the Q The Music show arrives in Kent. Can’t wait. Photo taken a couple of moments before the curtain went up in @buxtonoperahouse last week. @qthemusicshow #Music #Blonde #Guitar #Guitarist #LiveMusic #TheatreShow
Always a good reminder. Stolen from @davidezramusic. #mixing #studio #recording #useitorloseit
Another day, another mix - a radio edit and remaster of Rule The World As Two by @alexisgerred, feat the magnificent @misssteers (currently killing it on Broadway). Epic vocals the pair of em and nice to have an excuse to revisit this track. @neumann.berlin KH120as and KH805 sub working beautifully, and @softubestudios Weiss DS1-MK3 is my new favourite finishing comp - @softube if you’re reading this... it is PHENOMENAL (and my demo expires this week... 🙏). #studio #mixer #mix #producer #session #plugins #compression #itb #hybridmixing
Rather nice day working on a project in the studio and hearing @livausten writing with @devonmayson in the next room. Was not expecting to hear a harp in the flat today, kept thinking I was in a dream sequence... . . . . . . #songwriters #producer #music #harp #psychchat
