Recording: Day 2 (Toe Tapping & Tears for Fears)

Today we tracked bass and drums; cause for some serious toe tapping.

Meet the drummer: Jamie Wollam.

Stuart is using his hands as "cymbals" to communicate to Jamie how
he would like the drums to sound.

Joe plugs his bass in and records his brilliance right along with the drums.

My job right now? Listening. I know. It's tough.


Stu steps into the room where Jamie is set up to discuss ideas.

Lunch. Yum.


Jamie pulls up a youtube video of him playing at the Walton with Tears for Fears. On April 13, he goes on tour with them. Yeah. No big deal. Tears for Fears is only ONE OF MY FAVORITE BANDS EVER!


Jamie likes to lay on the ground a lot.

Jamie is also vain. This is the 10th picture we took before he was satisfied with his appearance; after all, he does work as a male model on the side. Only joking of course! (about it being the 10th picture. It was actually the 15th).

Thanks for following along with me on my recording adventure. More to come soon . . .

  3. I'm totally jealous that you are in summer-wear. Short sleeves, no boots or gloves? How would it be? ;)

    Hope you guys are feeling it in the studio. I'm excited for you, and I'm excited for the rest of us who get to hear what comes out. :)
