My current obsession & deep dive.

I keep my notebook or a guitar nearby so I can get ideas down quickly when something interesting happens. And when I don’t have either on me, like when I’m in the car or on an airplane, I sing into the phone (Don’t do this while driving, I once totalled my car this way and captured the entire accident on voice memo)

“I’ve used lots of amplifiers and have settled on some that are just really loud, but I hadn’t found one that spoke to me,” Hanson says. “I found this old Fender amp with a bunch of burns and smoke damage on it, and I just really liked the sound of it … Sometimes you’ll get a guitar and you run it through a really nice amp, and it won’t do anything. There’s no spark. And then sometimes, you get the right guitar and the right amp, and it just opens up this whole world of sound, and the amp will start interacting with the guitar, the guitar will start interacting with the amp, and I’m emotionally responding to what’s happening. I think the record is pretty much about that feeling.”

Zeb,….


I finally got around to listening to Western Cum for the first time, what a phenomenal record. Beautiful highs.

I just started his new one and am diving the first few tracks. The opener is killer.

This reminds me I need to get the live Wand record.

TK, we could be best friends.
