LA Recording Sessions

We recently flew out to Los Angeles to record a little demo for a sample of what will be on the next record. We had the pleasure of working with a great producer, Mike Daly, (Plain White T's, Grace Potter and the Nocturnals, Donavon Frankenreiter) who was also in the band Whiskey Town with Ryan Adams. Also our engineer out there, Travis Huff (Fall out Boy, Lil Jon, Yellowcard) is the man and was blowing our minds with his skills. This might have been one of the most fun recording sessions we have ever had. We recorded three new tunes which have potential to be on the next record "I Do Believe", "Reactor" and "Hard Enough To Break". Needless to say we are psyched with the way these are turning out.

We got to record in the pimpest studio we have ever seen, a place called Glenwood Studios, (which looks more like a day spa then it does a recording studio, at least on the outside…). The sounds we were getting out of this place and their sick vintage gear pumped us up quite a bit and the caliber of people we were working with was incredible.

We also got to hang out at some pretty cool places after the sessions, for example this one place the Chateau Marmont is where CSNY, The Eagles, Jerry Garcia and all the old rock stars used to stay when they were in town, and from the looks of it, it was still the place to be. When we were there we ran into Christopher Loyd, Kanye West, Jason Segel, Kim Kardashian and more of the like. Good times.

Flying out in an epic ice storm and flying into Boston during a blizzard after a 14 hour delay in Dallas was pretty nerve wracking but the band, and almost equally important our gear, is back safe and we are ready to crush some shows back on the east coast. We are pumped to be back in town and hope to see all you sexy people at some shows soon.
