Live Recording Flavor of the day:Flamenco

One of the great percs of this job, is that once you schlep your gear in and get set it all set up, signal flow/sound checked, I get to kick back and listen to some good live music! That is the case tonight at the Monkey Cat in Auburn. I will be recording Musical de la Guitara Flamenco y Classico. An acoustic performance by John Morris, who will be playing at 6:30. This will be a demo, so we need at least 4 cuts to be great. I think the whole show will be because he has skills, and I have a great mics! So come out if your near Auburn, check out some great flamenco y classico guitar. I will be kickin it, recording the demo and have a chill glass of wine after! Peace and Music, K~

Live Recording!

Why does it matter? Live recording is the way to get the music in the hands of people relatively inexpensively. People want to take music home, share it with their freinds, tell the world about this great band they heard! The way to build a fan base is to get people out to your shows. Period. But without a calling card (a cd of your music), how will anybody know if they want to go out and hear you? Record it! Get it in the hands of the people! They are waiting to be a part of this new and undiscovered band. Everybody loves turning other people onto great music, so what are you waiting for? Build your fan base, record your music and put it out there. Music is coming full circle, back to the human experience and the live show. Capture the heart and soul of what you do! Record it!
