A new record with Bay Station
While
I'm more a periodic than routine co-writer, I love collaborating and
making something that simply wouldn't exist otherwise. While we started
co-writing as part of a challenge, Kwame Copeland and I have since made
it an annual undertaking, resulting in a bunch of songs and the
Americana band Bay Station.
For the past several years, we've spent a lot of time in Joshua Tree
writing together, and two years ago, we ended our cross-country tour
there...and began a new batch of tunes. When it was time to record the
keepers, we decided to record the songs near their source, took the band
to Gatos Trail Studio outside of Joshua Tree and recorded the basics
(We also played a gig and took a sound bath at The Integratron while we
were at it!). Over the next months, we completed the 10 tracks at Lost
Monkey Studio in Hayward. We’re pleased with how all those good
vibrations added up, and, almost exactly a year after starting the
record, we're excited to release Other Deserts Cities this coming Sunday, April 29 at The Starry Plough
in Berkeley. It’s a double record-release show with our Bay Station
bandmate Steve Waters. If you're in the Bay Area this weekend, please
join us!
