I just want to give a big shout out to our studio architect/designer John Storyk and the team at WSDG for featuring us at NAMM Show as part of the "Mothership/Satellite Studio, past, present and future" . It was a presentation at the awards show for technical excellence and creativity (TEC). Somehow we made our own niche as a "Small Mothership"!

These musicians are part of my family. This first shot came up as a memory from 2015 album we all did just a day before a new session with Mariann Megna and Klyph Black and members of the latest group we've formed The Compadres occurred! The Compadres feature Cynthia Daniels James Lawler Arlethia D. Lawler Klyph Black and SteveCollins . The original session featured the East End Wrecking Crew at MonkMusic Recording Studios with James Campagnola Mariann Megna Michael J. LeClerc and Randolph Hudson! And we continue. Making music, as love and food for our souls. Thank you my beautiful, talented family of musicians. Our latest song "Good and Real (so we can heal)" will be out next week.

Guess who stopped by yesterday (with his doppelganger Lou Simon from Sirius-FM)! We've been really cranking at MonkMusic Recording Studios with projects for Inda Eaton, Bella Cuomo, Charlie Lang, J Smith Cameron, Richard Berse, Annie Trezza, and WBAnimation. And that was this past week! Ahh summer has such grace in so many ways. With the ocean nearby, I am pretty darned happy.

When the master pianist, organist and keyboardist Joe Delia Music straps on the bellows and plays the giant harmonica. So sweet, such a vibe. Never forget the 3 "T's" of playing. Anything at all. Touch, tone and technique. Anyone want to offer the 4th "T"?

The weekend was spent tracking with some wonderful singer/songwriters and our East End Wrecking Crew. Bella Cuomo, Charlie Lang and the one man band (not hown also playing drums) Ariel._.
It's been a blissful wipe out!

For the past several weeks I have had the pleasure of mixing Billy Lucas great musical adventure "The Absent-Minded Pirate". It's a Broadway show, it's a stream, it's a movie and a game. The songs are sublime and the orchestration and sounds are complex and perfectly arranged. It's brought me right into that place where I spent every day behind the console with an orchestra for television, film and the just about 100 Broadway and off-Broadway musicals. So many big studios are no longer in NYC, but we keep mixing here at Monkmusic Recording Studios!
