Working With Others

How I Work:

I enjoy coming up with several melodies that form a rhythmic backbone for soloists to lay tracks on top of. For Tag, for example, we recorded the bass, fiddle, accordion and two guitars in one session, and later Dave Cohen added his wah wah solo on top of that. Ideally, it all comes together as many voices involved in a coversation about one topic.

Equipment:

Old Ramirez guitar I found in a dumpster and repaired, some on my own but with a LOT of help from Dan MacArthur.

Guild accoustic bass guitar.

Sony Sound Forge.
