The Winebirds
The Red Octopuses record is now out. Woo hoo! E-mail me, and for a limited time I'll send you a copy - for free! How's that for a bargain!? Or, if you just can't wait, pick it up through Amazon or iTunes. I hear that Paper Brain's record is now mastered and being pressed. I can't wait to hear that! We''ve been having a great time mixing new songs by The Winebirds, who have really come into their own in the studio. That's my pal Ed Andrews on bass, who always writes cool bass lines. Take a listen to Superdelegate [mp3], Monkey Victim Unit [mp3], Hit Machine [mp3], and Tideman [mp3]. The 16-track heads for the 2-inch decks just arrived, and I cannot wait to start tracking to tape. Next week brings artist Clay Bell up from San Francisco for an extended recording session. I've heard his new material, and it's great. Lastly, I've been on this extreme Bob Dylan kick lately. What a songwriter. Also, early Foreigner. What tone! More soon.
