Hey friends…it's been a little quite here, but I've been writing and recording in 2026. I've got a few new songs just about ready to share with world, but I wanted to share the impetus behind my inspiration of late. I have made sone significant upgrades to my studio! In the Spring I made a long-awaited upgrade to my studio monitors. The impact that my new Barefoot Sound Footprint 01 Gen2 monitors brought to my workflow is a giant leap forward for me, and such an upgrade required an equally significant upgrade to the acoustics of my room.
I completed a full pro-level acoustical analysis of my new space, and the resultant scans indicated my new room “is exactly what a small critical‑listening room should aim for”. I instantly realized a HUGE difference in what I'm hearing in my mixes. Can't wait to share with everyone!
Matt and I performed an intimate candlelight concert in June at the beautiful Mariner Theater in Marine City. Played to a nearly full house, including sold out stage seating. An unbelievable experience as a performer...a stage lit by hundreds of candles and an audience seated on the stage with us merely feet away.
Lots of music, banter, and laughs with our many new-found friends. Shared the stage with a 100 year-old restored Steinway grand piano which begged us (and we gladly obliged) for a little Elton John treatment. It was an evening that we won’t soon forget.
The silver lining of 2020 must be that it gave the gift of stay-at-home creativity. I was able to write, record and fully produce two new tunes. 2021 will see videos made for both. Can’t wait to share them you guys! Stay tuned!
