It’s turning out to be a bit of a slow summer for gigs, but with my downtime I am just relaxing and trying to practice a bit more. I have added some more photos to the site and added a new Robert Farrell track, “Jolee”, on my MP3.com Station page. The Robert Farrell Band also performed this song on Canada AM back at the end of May.
The new THERMOclinE EP was just mixed in North Hollywood, CA by our producer/5th member of the band, Jay Ruston. It’s four tracks with the current line-up. I am working on the artwork for the disc right now, but we are still trying to finalize the title. Sample tracks will be posted on the THERMOsite soon.
I did about ten tracks on American artist Sonni Haskill’s new CD with producer Steve Gould. He flew up to Canada and we did the tracks at a studio in Franktown, just outside Ottawa.
And in the last week I got to see quite a few of my favorite drummers. I saw my buddy Randy Cooke with Long John Baldry, Kenny Aronoff with Melissa Etheridge and a clinic by Dave Weckl. These guys are all different, but they are so inspiring to watch.
