Speaker 9: Good yes? Also known as Neon Gypsy.
Speaker 8: Correct or is the on Gypsy the name of the
Speaker 8: band or are you the Neon Gypsy?
Speaker 10: It can be there or really because you know, we're
Speaker 10: trying to just bring the brand wherever we go. So
Speaker 10: whether whether it's me, you know, solo or sometimes it's
Speaker 10: different projects. So it always stays me on Gypsy just
Speaker 10: for a little bit of consistency.
Speaker 8: Sure. Sure, And we're going to be playing in a
Speaker 8: moment studio track that you recently. This was this just
Speaker 8: came out right, your rendition of Run Rudolph Front right.
Speaker 10: Well, we actually recorded it last year, but it was
Speaker 10: a really last minute thing and it didn't get any
Speaker 10: airtime because it was just it was too close to Christmas.
Speaker 10: So this is really the debut of it for sure.
Speaker 9: Oh very good.
Speaker 8: So this has not been played on the radio before, No,
Speaker 8: not really, So this is the world radio premiere.
Speaker 10: It really is.
Speaker 8: We like those here. We like to do the world
Speaker 8: radio premiere.
Speaker 10: It is happening right here in Manchester.
Speaker 8: That is. That is fantastic. No, we appreciate that. By
Speaker 8: the way, I learned something so I mentioned this too
Speaker 8: yesterday or not yesterday, Yeah, yesterday when I posted a
Speaker 8: quick preview video about today's show All my Life, I
Speaker 8: thought the name of the song was run Round Rudolph.
Speaker 10: Exactly, me too, yes, And it was a real tongue
Speaker 10: twister when I was trying to do the lyrics because
Speaker 10: all my life that's what I thought it was too,
Speaker 10: so I had to undo it many times. But yeah, yeah,
Speaker 10: I just learned that as well.
Speaker 9: Where did you record this?
Speaker 10: We recorded at Studio fifty one, which is our home studio.
Speaker 10: After COVID a lot of people started to go, you
Speaker 10: know and get in their own studios, so we're finally
Speaker 10: set up with all the equipment we need and we
Speaker 10: recorded it right in Portland main.
Speaker 8: By the way, for those you brought stickers, I'm gonna
Speaker 8: hold these up in front of the camera here that's
Speaker 8: in front of me for people watching online. So we
Speaker 8: should mention too, and Jenny will be excited. She loves stickers.
Speaker 8: Here's the uh we get that right in front of
Speaker 8: the camera, Studio fifty one sticker. So you were just
Speaker 8: talking about Studio fifty one and this school k neon
Speaker 8: gypsy sticker too.
Speaker 9: I love the logo. Who designed the logo?
Speaker 8: Did you do that?
Speaker 11: Or yeah?
Speaker 10: My graphic designers. That's one of the renditions. But really
Speaker 10: they're holographic and sparkly. We'll make sure to get you those.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 8: Yeah, no, that's cool though, I dig it.
Speaker 10: Yeah, thank you.
Speaker 8: So so this track, so you recorded this at Studio
Speaker 8: fifty one, yes, okay.
Speaker 10: Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 8: Do you record other artists there too or is it
Speaker 8: just your material for that?
Speaker 10: Now we're opening it up to other artists as well. So,
Speaker 10: and we're thinking about doing some collaborations as well too,
Speaker 10: just for the fun of it, because sometimes the music
Speaker 10: industry gets a little stressful when you're just trying to
Speaker 10: get out there, whether you're getting out to just play
Speaker 10: and get paid or whether you're just you know, trying
Speaker 10: to get your stuff out there.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 10: I really need to keep the fun in it and
Speaker 10: the collaboration. So we'll be having different artists from the
Speaker 10: area come in and we're just going to do different
Speaker 10: collaborations with originals.
Speaker 9: Outstanding and some covers too, but yeah, very cool.
Speaker 8: Well, so for anyone who's interested in recording there, this
Speaker 8: will kind of give you an idea of what kind
Speaker 8: of a sound you can get. And let's give this
Speaker 8: a spin and then we'll come back and Jennifer is
Speaker 8: going to play for us today too. She brought her guitar,
Speaker 8: so really looking forward to that.
Speaker 9: But here it is.
Speaker 8: This is run Rudolph Run as I now know the correct, uh,
Speaker 8: the correct name of this classic song. Chuck Berry did
Speaker 8: this originally correct?
Speaker 10: Yeah, and it was written in nineteen fifty eight.
Speaker 9: Nineteen fifty eight.
Speaker 8: Well, yeah, so that's that's.
Speaker 10: Why we have that title stuck in our head. Yes,
Speaker 10: if you weren't born, then you can't know.
Speaker 8: All your life has that exactly exactly all right? Here

Speaker 9: N run Buda, run Rudolph run. That is neon Gipsy.
Speaker 8: That is a brand new and uh yeah, Jennifer, we
Speaker 8: were talking kind of off air. You're gonna be recording
Speaker 8: more at the at Studio fifty one. You've got a
Speaker 8: bunch of originals You're going to be doing right right.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 10: Some of the songs actually are thirty years old. When
Speaker 10: I wrote them, I put them in a book, close
Speaker 10: a book, put it away forever, and then resurface them,
Speaker 10: and I actually still really liked them. We just upgraded
Speaker 10: the music, but we've got about five to seven that
Speaker 10: are literally waiting for me to get in the studio.
Speaker 10: Brian and did all his parts, and it's all on
Speaker 10: me to get down there with vocals and recording the guitar,
Speaker 10: and it's going to be all rock. So there's when
Speaker 10: I play out, it's acoustic. But I really wanted to
Speaker 10: bring the rock portion into playing because I love that aspect.
Speaker 10: But more often than not, if I'm playing out, I
Speaker 10: play acoustic.
Speaker 8: Oh okay, okay, So do you do a lot of
Speaker 8: shows just you? Or does Brian join you for the
Speaker 8: acoustic shows.
Speaker 10: This is relatively new with taking a different approach to
Speaker 10: a band. I've been in a lot of renditions of
Speaker 10: bands before, and what I've ended up finding is that,
Speaker 10: of course, you know, bands are family. You know, sometimes
Speaker 10: it works, sometimes it doesn't. Dynamics are you know, always
Speaker 10: very tricky, and everyone that comes into a band brings
Speaker 10: their own style and or flavor, and you know, it
Speaker 10: worked on different variety of levels. But I really wanted
Speaker 10: to refocus and have it be Neon Gypsy brand of
Speaker 10: what we're bringing out there. So we're doing it a
Speaker 10: little different this time. And instead of saying, dude, I
Speaker 10: want to start a band and then and then you
Speaker 10: like know a drummer and you pull people in that
Speaker 10: you just know, what we're doing is we're creating the brand,
Speaker 10: the sound, the music ourselves in studio and then we're
Speaker 10: putting the brand out there and hopefully what people do
Speaker 10: musicians as they say, wow, I love that sound, I
Speaker 10: love that feel, and when they come into the project,
Speaker 10: they're bringing that particular vibe, right, so that we're not
Speaker 10: changing you know, like coming in and you know, sounding
Speaker 10: like Greg Almonds because of some dude that comes in
Speaker 10: that likes Greg Almonds, you know, or you know what
Speaker 10: I mean. Yeah, So we're doing it a little bit
Speaker 10: differently and we're attracting the musicians that we feel fit
Speaker 10: the actual brand.
Speaker 8: Yeah yeah, well, because yeah, you want to attract obviously,
Speaker 8: not not only musicians for the band, but for the
Speaker 8: for the studio too.
Speaker 9: You want people to come and record, I assume, so.
Speaker 8: Right, yeah, yeah, and uh yeah no uh run Rudolph
Speaker 8: ru it sounds great, is it just now who so
Speaker 8: do you have Is it just you and Brian on
Speaker 8: the track.
Speaker 9: Or are there other musicians who play on the track.
Speaker 10: On that particular one, we had Keoni Ben come in,
Speaker 10: a musician that is a bass player that we we knew, okay,
Speaker 10: so he did play bass on that And as far
Speaker 10: as that goes, Rick Ash is a drummer in the
Speaker 10: area who will come in and play with us as well.
Speaker 8: Okay.
Speaker 10: So yeah, we definitely, you know, we'll bring in people
Speaker 10: for bass and drums and the and the instruments that
Speaker 10: obviously we're not playing. For some of the recorded originals
Speaker 10: that are coming out, we actually hired somebody in Africa
Speaker 10: who did all the percussion because they can they can
Speaker 10: mike every single you know, you know, drum on their
Speaker 10: on their you know sound so and you know, and
Speaker 10: then obviously when we're playing local we'll pull in local musicians.
Speaker 8: So it's amazing too. This is a subject that comes
Speaker 8: up on the show a lot. It's amazing to live
Speaker 8: in a time where you can do, like what you
Speaker 8: just said, like work with somebody in Africa, you know,
Speaker 8: and send tracks back and forth.
Speaker 9: And I also think, you.
Speaker 8: Know, I you refer to the pandemic earlier and how that,
Speaker 8: you know, kind of changes the dynamics of things. Obviously,
Speaker 8: it was a terrible experience, the pandemic, but you know,
Speaker 8: we have to find these silver linings where we can,
Speaker 8: and I think one of the few silver linings is
Speaker 8: it really kind of forced a lot of creative people
Speaker 8: to find new ways to create. And obviously the ability
Speaker 8: to you know, send tracks back and forth with people
Speaker 8: in other parts of the world, We've had that for
Speaker 8: a long time. But I think when the pandemic showed up,
Speaker 8: it kind of forced people who maybe were resistant to
Speaker 8: doing that to try it. And it opened up new
Speaker 8: ways to be creative that maybe people hadn't considered before,
Speaker 8: you know, and I think I think now musicians are
Speaker 8: much more open to that and and being able to
Speaker 8: that's pretty cool, right, being able to collaborate with somebody
Speaker 8: in Africa.
Speaker 10: Yeah, you know. Yeah, And you know, creativity should not
Speaker 10: be limited by money, and it was for me for
Speaker 10: for decades. You know, I started playing and singing in
Speaker 10: bands and and getting creative, you know, in high school
Speaker 10: and back then it was four tracks and those are
Speaker 10: relatively you know, easy.
Speaker 8: To get and just noodle around with the creative fuel
Speaker 8: task him. Yeah, I had one, you know, and we had.
Speaker 10: I've always had a home studio, and you know, just
Speaker 10: getting the creative idea out there and on back then tape,
Speaker 10: you know, kept the creative float going and it made
Speaker 10: me feel like, well, this is why I want to
Speaker 10: do it, and kept the passion in it, you know.
Speaker 10: The moment that I couldn't access that anymore, or maybe
Speaker 10: it got beyond technology that I could even really want
Speaker 10: to deal with, is you know, it should it should
Speaker 10: be something that all musicians can access. And I think
Speaker 10: that home studios do that for people. And honestly, I
Speaker 10: think at this point people don't have to spend you know,
Speaker 10: thousands of dollars to get a great track, and you honestly,
Speaker 10: I mean, I'm okay with not having a big name
Speaker 10: on on our tracks, yeah you know, yeah, and totally
Speaker 10: fine with, uh with doing it at home.
Speaker 9: So yeah, yeah, do you want to do you want
Speaker 9: to play? So I'm dying here? You play live?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 9: Yeah we did.
Speaker 8: Uh, we did a little sound check before the When
Speaker 8: you're the first guest on the show in the morning,
Speaker 8: you actually get a sound check and uh, you sound
Speaker 8: you sounded amazing, just a little bit that I heard.

Speaker 18: A lot of it.
Speaker 10: Or and or as high energy as it is dynamic? Yes,
Speaker 10: dynamics or high energy? Yeah, yeah, So I have a slower,
Speaker 10: slower song where you know, the bridge kind of just
Speaker 10: kicks up and when we get that recorded full band,
Speaker 10: it'll just be like a wall of sound up in
Speaker 10: the bridge, you know, and then comes back down. So yeah, dynamics, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 9: Now are you the primary songwriter? Do you write everything?
Speaker 10: Or actually, Brian my guitarist, my you are mine.
Speaker 8: The mysterious Brian Right, he's he's over there, he's over there.
Speaker 9: On the corner.
Speaker 10: Brian writes a lot of cool stuff on electric guitar,
Speaker 10: lead riffs and stuff and then I'll write the lyrics.
Speaker 10: Usually I wrote this song music lyrics, and so you know,
Speaker 10: it's it's kind of a give or take really or collaboration.
Speaker 10: But the songs I have here today I wrote and
Speaker 10: lyrics and the music.
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, excellent. Do you have how many? How many
Speaker 9: songs have you written?
Speaker 8: Do you think like it's probably hard to put a
Speaker 8: number on it, But I mean you strike me as
Speaker 8: someone who probably has written a lot.
Speaker 9: You probably write a lot, like ever, yeah, like like
Speaker 9: can you put a number on like like a vaguely uh.
Speaker 10: Probably. I was one of those kids.
Speaker 12: I was.
Speaker 11: I was not cool.
Speaker 10: I'm still I'm still reaching for that goal. But I
Speaker 10: was one of those kids that's you know, in grade
Speaker 10: school high school, sat in my room with a notebook
Speaker 10: and I pined over my pen and paper, writing mostly lyrics.
Speaker 10: What I thought was poetry, and the saddest day of
Speaker 10: my life was my absolute favorite high school poetry teacher
Speaker 10: looked at the stuff I was bringing in. He said,
Speaker 10: you know, make you make a really great lyric writer.
Speaker 10: And I was insulted.
Speaker 9: Really, I was insulted at the.
Speaker 10: Time because I had not started playing music and I
Speaker 10: wanted to be a poet, and so I went in
Speaker 10: with all my writings and toils, you know, on wielding
Speaker 10: my pen and came in I'll emo and he's like,
Speaker 10: you know, and I was really offended at that point.
Speaker 10: And then I started playing a guitar. So, you know,
Speaker 10: I probably have hundreds of songs, but it's like a sketch.
Speaker 10: You know, not every sketch is going to be great,
Speaker 10: but you know you can pull pieces of those here
Speaker 10: and there, smash things together, you know, scratch it whatever.
Speaker 10: But that song that I just sang, I wrote, put
Speaker 10: in a book, closed the book, and then packed the
Speaker 10: book away and then didn't open.
Speaker 9: It for twenty years kidding.
Speaker 10: So that song's actually thirty years old, which is dating myself. Yeah,
Speaker 10: so that was resurrected.
Speaker 8: Do you remember the first song you ever wrote, Actually, one.
Speaker 10: Of the first songs I ever did write I can
Speaker 10: play today called Fifth Dimension, no kidding, Yeah, And I
Speaker 10: wrote that in high school, you know, sitting on my bed,
Speaker 10: like I said, toiling and writing poet. It was poetry
Speaker 10: at the time, and that's also resurfaced. And the thing
Speaker 10: that's changed about that is the music the way I
Speaker 10: played it, not so much the chords, but the playing
Speaker 10: has changed, yea, and that one is Yeah, that one
Speaker 10: just keeps. I figure if songs keep resurfacing, then they
Speaker 10: must be worth something, you know, or to me at least,
Speaker 10: right you know. So those those are the ones that resurface.
Speaker 9: But yeah, yeah, that's pretty cool. It's something that you
Speaker 9: wrote so early. You know that it survives, you.
Speaker 10: Know, right, well, I wrote it. My aunt got me
Speaker 10: an old k guitar at a just a thrift shop
Speaker 10: somewhere for like twenty bucks, and you needed tetannis shots
Speaker 10: to you know, even play the strings. You know, the
Speaker 10: strings had never been changed. But I was around music
Speaker 10: all of my life. So my grandparents, you know, everyone
Speaker 10: in our family Germans, Pollockx Ukrainians, they all played music
Speaker 10: and it didn't matter what it was, whether it was
Speaker 10: the harmonica, the guitar, banjo, you know, whatever poke music.
Speaker 10: So we were surrounded by it, but we never really
Speaker 10: called ourselves musicians. It was just part of what we
Speaker 10: did to celebrate and have fun. So I've always seen
Speaker 10: my grandfather playing guitar, but he didn't really know chords,
Speaker 10: you know. He would too just kind of tune the
Speaker 10: guitar to an open tuning and pluck away at it,
Speaker 10: and so I learned how to play without knowing what
Speaker 10: chords I was playing and often just play by sound
Speaker 10: know or here, you know, hearing what I'm doing. So
Speaker 10: I wrote that particular song that we're talking about not
Speaker 10: knowing chords, okay, and I still don't. And that's why
Speaker 10: I always say I'm not really you know, I'm not
Speaker 10: really a musician. I don't read music, you know me either.
Speaker 9: I never learned to read music.
Speaker 10: I just simply did it for expression.
Speaker 9: Yeah, so yeah, do you want to you want to
Speaker 9: play another one? I'm done here more.
Speaker 10: Yeah great, I'm still warming up my fingers, so I apologize, ye,
Speaker 10: but yeah, this is the this is the song called
Speaker 10: Fifth Dimension. I'm just gonna tune up a little bit.
Speaker 9: Yeah yeah, this this song is actually about.
Speaker 10: Well fifth dimension basically, if you know, if you're if
Speaker 10: you're on a different plane, if somebody can they see you,
Speaker 10: can they hear you, can they understand you?
Speaker 2: You know?
Speaker 10: It was actually one of my poetic days where I
Speaker 10: was getting really deep in emo.
Speaker 6: And this was.
Speaker 10: Recorded, uh you know a few years ago, but it
Speaker 10: was right before pandemic and then the world closed down
Speaker 10: and I lost track of where the actual wave file
Speaker 10: went and all the stun files.
Speaker 8: And so we're going to be re recording this one.
Speaker 10: Okay, yeah, this is called Fifth Dimension.

Speaker 16: Believe in Megge.
Speaker 21: Maggie believe in no believe in Maggie.
Speaker 5: Maggie.
Speaker 9: That was the first one you wrote. You were off
Speaker 9: to a great starter.
Speaker 8: I really like that.
Speaker 10: It sounded a lot different. It definitely wasn't as upbeat,
Speaker 10: yes as you said it. I think you said it.
Speaker 10: Do you always play up? I don't know what you
Speaker 10: just said. But when I originally wrote it, it was
Speaker 10: pretty sing song y. Yeah, and I didn't really have
Speaker 10: a lot of confidence when I was playing and singing.
Speaker 10: I was singing secretly, you know, in my room. Yeah,
Speaker 10: never sang in front of anyone, and so everything was
Speaker 10: pretty mellow and kind of safe when I first wrote.
Speaker 10: So that that was you know again, put it away
Speaker 10: in a book for twenty years, come back to it
Speaker 10: with more confidence, with more attitude, and you know, yeah,
Speaker 10: and that's what that's what that brings to the table. Yeah, dynamics.
Speaker 8: No, that was great. Yeah, yeah, I really like that
Speaker 8: a lot. Absolutely, thank you. Now, when you record the album,
Speaker 8: how many how many tracks are you gonna record? Have
Speaker 8: you settled on that when you do the because you're
Speaker 8: going to do a full album, right?
Speaker 9: Is that the plant?
Speaker 10: Well, we were thinking about singles just because you have
Speaker 10: a lot more to talk about more often.
Speaker 9: True, that's true.
Speaker 7: Yeah, And.
Speaker 10: I like that idea, you know, because you're always fresh.
Speaker 10: And what we're hoping to do is, you know, we
Speaker 10: have any where from five to nine songs between me
Speaker 10: and Brian writing and some of those are just blow
Speaker 10: your head off rock. Yeah, kind of a combination of
Speaker 10: a I wouldn't say classic rock, not really, I don't
Speaker 10: know rock, classic rock, contemporary mixed all together, yeah yeah,
Speaker 10: and then throwing throwing in a little eighties flair with
Speaker 10: his lead solos and stuff.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 9: So yeah, yeah, that's another thing too that comes up
Speaker 9: a lot on the show.
Speaker 8: As you know, we live in a time where you
Speaker 8: can really there's so many different ways you can release music, so.
Speaker 9: Many different strategies you can use.
Speaker 8: And you know, like when I was growing up, it was,
Speaker 8: you know, an artist would usually the first single would
Speaker 8: go to radio. It was always an album, and the
Speaker 8: first single would go to radio six eight weeks before
Speaker 8: the album comes out, and then the album comes out,
Speaker 8: and then there's a second single and so forth and
Speaker 8: from there. But now you can do it so many
Speaker 8: different ways, and you know, you can just do singles.
Speaker 9: You can do it ep.
Speaker 8: You can. A lot of artists that we talk to
Speaker 8: now will it's kind of the inverse of how it
Speaker 8: originally worked. We're instead of releasing an album and then
Speaker 8: a bunch of singles, they release a bunch of singles
Speaker 8: that eventually coalesced.
Speaker 9: Yeah, yeah, I think.
Speaker 10: That's the direction we would go.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 10: Yeah, I mean, interestingly enough, a lot of the songs
Speaker 10: are kind of very different, but for some reason, they
Speaker 10: they all seem to work as a storyboard when you
Speaker 10: put them together as an album. And I guess that's
Speaker 10: the way albums work, right, They're telling a story even
Speaker 10: though each song isn't exactly maybe the same genre or style.
Speaker 10: I feel like we have a lot of different stuff
Speaker 10: going on, but the dynamics are what keep that cohesive
Speaker 10: as an album if you were to put them all together.
Speaker 9: Yeah, no, that makes sense, That makes sense. You want
Speaker 9: to you want to play another one?
Speaker 22: We have time and want to.
Speaker 10: Yeah, let me see what I got here. I got
Speaker 10: another original, which is you know we could do that? Well,
Speaker 10: we could do a cover. I don't know.
Speaker 9: You want you want to play another original?
Speaker 11: Yeah?
Speaker 9: I really like your originals, So yeah, we'll.
Speaker 10: Do that, because that's why I'm here. I'm here. I
Speaker 10: am a musician.
Speaker 8: Yes, yes, if you are just joining us, we have
Speaker 8: Neon Gypsy live in studio.
Speaker 10: This is a slower one, so ok, you can see
Speaker 10: it a little bit more mellow.
Speaker 16: All right, Now, I could see maybe I'm down night.
Speaker 18: Waiting cune until up to me.
Speaker 19: Tell me it's all right? Now I can ask you

Speaker 15: It's you streets No ball bow, Yeah it's you streams

Speaker 15: not the novel three.
Speaker 8: That's my favorite one so far. Really, I really like that.
Speaker 8: I really like that. If you are just joining us
Speaker 8: neon Gypsy here with us live in studio on this
Speaker 8: Saturday morning, sounding fantastic. Now, are you what's your show
Speaker 8: schedule like, are you playing out a lot or are
Speaker 8: you more focused on recording or what's going on there.
Speaker 10: I was playing out quite a bit as a you know,
Speaker 10: a cover artist and then mixing in some of my originals.
Speaker 10: Sometimes it was you know, three to four times a month,
Speaker 10: which was a little too much. I start started feeling
Speaker 10: a little more like a machine. Yeah, it was a
Speaker 10: lot of fun, So I'm slowing down a little bit.
Speaker 10: I will be playing in January at a really cool
Speaker 10: place in Gorham. It's called Sidecar Winding Whiskey Bar, which
Speaker 10: is a really swanky place you pull up a couch
Speaker 10: and get your you know, sniffer and just kind of
Speaker 10: pontificate about all of the music coming out of my mouth. Yeah,
Speaker 10: that's a really cool place. And a few other places
Speaker 10: that you can find on Neon Gypsy on my Facebook
Speaker 10: page for the events. But right now for twenty twenty five,
Speaker 10: I do have some venues in New Hampshire as well,
Speaker 10: the Barnyard. I'll be playing there this summer. They haven't
Speaker 10: quite got their their scheduled together yet. That's a really fun.
Speaker 8: Place to play where is that I'm not familiar with.
Speaker 10: That's in Candya Okay, Yeah, that's a really great venue.
Speaker 10: It's an outdoor venue and everybody there that you know,
Speaker 10: they're playing corn hole on the side, and you know,
Speaker 10: it's just it's such a great vibe, especially in the summer,
Speaker 10: and everybody there that just always they listen. You know,
Speaker 10: they're not just you know, they're enjoying themselves, but they
Speaker 10: really do listen and appreciate the music there. But we
Speaker 10: are I'm slowing down a little bit more on the
Speaker 10: idea of just play out, play out, play out, and
Speaker 10: got to focus on getting in the studio because some
Speaker 10: of these songs are so old, you know that now's
Speaker 10: the time, like we've got to get this done. Now
Speaker 10: that we got the upgrades in the studio.
Speaker 8: Rolling yeah, absolutely, absolutely Now Now the goal is to
Speaker 8: obviously have other musicians coming and record with you, right,
Speaker 8: But you're not there yet, I assume with the studio
Speaker 8: or you're or maybe you are.
Speaker 18: No, we are, yeah, we are.
Speaker 10: You know. The only thing we don't have is a
Speaker 10: drum room and you know, acoustic drums. We work, you know,
Speaker 10: I think what what is nice about home studios or
Speaker 10: our studios. It's it's a small home studio, but we're
Speaker 10: working with an E kit so we can just plug
Speaker 10: in and you know, keep it simple, make it affordable,
Speaker 10: you know, so that people can come in and get
Speaker 10: creative and you're getting clean sounds coming out of that
Speaker 10: without the complication of having a degree to make up
Speaker 10: every drum on a kite.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 10: Yeah, So we do have musicians coming in right now.
Speaker 10: We have Rick Ash that just finished up a track.
Speaker 10: He came in. He's from the Mid Coast area in Maine,
Speaker 10: and he just resurrected a song from the nineties, you know,
Speaker 10: with this old band Crazy Knave and Brian and I
Speaker 10: got to be a part of that and I got
Speaker 10: to play it's called Blackout Brandy. I got to play
Speaker 10: Blackout Brandy. I have a little cameo in the bridge.
Speaker 10: I get to play a drunk girl.
Speaker 9: So yeah, okay, okay, so another word, So you're a
Speaker 9: Blackout Brandy, and.
Speaker 10: I guess I would be.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 10: I get a few things that I, you know, say
Speaker 10: in there, and then I get to sing just a
Speaker 10: little bit and nail it. I'll send you the song
Speaker 10: if you'd look, if you would play it, it would
Speaker 10: be awesome.
Speaker 9: Absolutely.
Speaker 10: Yeah, it's a great song that's mastered in out there
Speaker 10: and ready to go.
Speaker 9: Oh fantastic.
Speaker 10: Okay, yeah, so yeah, artists are welcome to come and
Speaker 10: visit us. Like I said, it's just a small, small,
Speaker 10: but mighty studio, you know. Okay, But the difference is
Speaker 10: we just had a musician come in who actually has
Speaker 10: a home studio and he's like, you know, I really
Speaker 10: don't quite know what I'm doing to the level of
Speaker 10: that Brian does in studio produce sing and recording. Yeah,
Speaker 10: and he just wanted to come in and relax and play.
Speaker 10: He didn't want to push the buttons and okay.
Speaker 9: Yeah, so yeah, very cool.
Speaker 8: Now, how do where should people go online to find
Speaker 8: out more about a Studio fifty one?
Speaker 10: We have a Facebook page, okay, and it's you know,
Speaker 10: there's a lot of Studio fifty ones out there, but
Speaker 10: you know, we're out of Portland, Maine. And look for
Speaker 10: the spaceship with the half naked woman on the logo.
Speaker 8: Okay, and with the guitar and that's us.
Speaker 9: Okay, yeah, okay, very cool, very cool. Do you want
Speaker 9: to play one more? We have time if you want to.

Speaker 30: fade out, listening that this has got me thinking about
Speaker 30: what's missing. It's insensitive, obsessing over every single mistake, taking
Speaker 30: time and making rhymes to take my minds up all
