In the studio with Phil Doleman and others

We just completed another day in the studio recording for “Tales of Dark and Light” Today we started recording “The Pink Moon” “Grey Skies” and “I’m praying for some misery” Rich Ferdi provided percussion and Dave Bowie sat in on double bass. Phil Doleman joined us to add banjo and lap steel. Everyone today brought their “A game” and even in these early stages these tracks are sounding excellent.

One of the joys with working with so many excellent musicians is that each musician brings something new to the project, often in quite magical and unexpected ways. As I have said before this is a different musical direction and the tracks are generally more complex than anything I have recorded before or far more stripped down to just one or two instruments and vocals. I’m back in the studio tomorrow to finalize vocals on these tracks and then back in May with some additional musicians and to add Agi’s vocal parts. Once these three tracks are mastered, we will have ten tracks completed and two more planned.
