5:25 Speaker 2: a nice beautiful summer evening or something day or something,

5:27 Speaker 2: and the windows were open or so you could just

5:29 Speaker 2: hear all the y action outside. It was kind of

5:31 Speaker 2: cool that that part I kind of miss Yeah yeah,

6:08 Speaker 8: you want to tell the story of.

6:10 Speaker 9: I have to.

6:10 Speaker 2: I have an apology to make, as I'm sitting right

6:12 Speaker 2: here before you both. So I think it was about

6:16 Speaker 2: a year and a half ago. I was I was booked,

6:18 Speaker 2: I was supposed to be on and my wife and

6:21 Speaker 2: I had actually just moved to our house and conquered

6:24 Speaker 2: And I remember that specifically because the house was you

6:26 Speaker 2: know how it is when you move.

6:27 Speaker 7: It's chaos.

6:28 Speaker 2: There's boxes all over the place, and you know, as

6:31 Speaker 2: musicians tend to do, we're running late. So I got

6:35 Speaker 2: up that morning and I'm like, oh, you know, all

6:37 Speaker 2: frenzied looking for my I'm not the type of guy.

6:39 Speaker 2: I'm a lot of things, but I'm not the type

6:40 Speaker 2: of guy that usually loses my keys. For whatever reason,

6:44 Speaker 2: this morning that I'm supposed to be on a radio show,

6:46 Speaker 2: can't find my keys. I'm looking through all the boxes

6:49 Speaker 2: and tearing them apart, and my neighbors, I don't think,

6:51 Speaker 2: talk to us for six months because they probably heard

6:53 Speaker 2: the psycho oh wow, going.

6:54 Speaker 7: Crazy like oh. And then I'm like, well, I definitely

7:00 Speaker 7: wouldn't have locked them in my car.

7:03 Speaker 2: And then I go out to the driveway and there

7:05 Speaker 2: they are sitting right on the front passenger seat of

7:07 Speaker 2: my car, and I'm thinking, Okay, at this point, I

7:11 Speaker 2: know I got to cancel. Yeah, what lie do I

7:14 Speaker 2: come up with to tell them to avoid telling them

7:18 Speaker 2: that I locked that. You know, it's like, hey, Frank,

7:21 Speaker 2: I can't be unto work because I locked. Oh yeah,

7:23 Speaker 2: no big deal, But like, hey, I can't be on

7:24 Speaker 2: your radio show because I'm an idiot.

7:27 Speaker 7: So anyway, so yes, I locked.

7:29 Speaker 2: My Jen was lovely about it, but I locked my keys.

7:32 Speaker 7: In my car and had to miss being on a

7:34 Speaker 7: radio show.

7:34 Speaker 8: Oh yeah. But so you realize they were in your

7:38 Speaker 8: car after you'd already torn everything else apart looking for them.

7:41 Speaker 7: So the whole house is torn apart.

7:43 Speaker 2: My neighbors think them crazy, and then uh yeah, and

7:45 Speaker 2: then there they are sitting on the passenger seat of

7:48 Speaker 2: my car.

7:48 Speaker 7: Oh wow, triple a to come open my door.

7:51 Speaker 8: Like, oh, no kidding, you have a spare key anywhere?

7:53 Speaker 2: No, you know, a grown adults is your spare keys?

7:56 Speaker 2: You know, No big deal, That's what I'm saying, Like,

7:58 Speaker 2: how do I call this one in? That's funny, that's funny.

8:01 Speaker 1: I have.

8:02 Speaker 8: I have a quick key story. I once threw a

8:04 Speaker 8: set of car keys into a dumpster by mistake. Yeah,

8:07 Speaker 8: I was uh. I was living in an apartment complex

8:10 Speaker 8: and conquered at the time, and I was on my

8:11 Speaker 8: way out the door, and I was in a big

8:13 Speaker 8: hurry and i'd left. I was running late. It's always

8:16 Speaker 8: running late, right, Yeah, So I had a bag of

8:19 Speaker 8: garbage next to the door that I was going to

8:20 Speaker 8: take to the dumpster on my way out. So so

8:22 Speaker 8: I'm in a hurry. So I grabbed my car keys

8:24 Speaker 8: and my house keys are all in one key ring.

8:26 Speaker 8: I grab them with my right hand, and I'm in

8:28 Speaker 8: a big hurry and I'm running out the door, and

8:29 Speaker 8: I'm like, oh, I gotta grab that bag of garbage.

8:31 Speaker 8: And with the same hand, I grabbed the bag of garbage.

8:34 Speaker 8: And I was in such a hurry that somehow, once

8:36 Speaker 8: I got outside on my way to my car. I

8:39 Speaker 8: was like, oh, I gotta throw this bag of garbage away,

8:41 Speaker 8: and I managed to forget that. In the same hand,

8:44 Speaker 8: I'm also holding my keys, and I remember hurling the

8:48 Speaker 8: garbage bag into the dumpster and just kind of it

8:50 Speaker 8: was like everything was moving in slow motion for a moment,

8:53 Speaker 8: because it's like I'm watching the garbage bag sailing into

8:56 Speaker 8: the dumpster, and I'm also watching my keys sailing into

9:00 Speaker 8: that dumpster, and it's like it's like yeah and sure enough. Yeah.

9:07 Speaker 8: So there was one lucky thing about it, though, believe

9:10 Speaker 8: it or not, there was actually a lucky thing in

9:12 Speaker 8: the story. The dumpster had been emptied that morning. The

9:14 Speaker 8: truck had come to empty of the dumpster. So when

9:16 Speaker 8: I ran over and I looked in, I could see

9:18 Speaker 8: the garbage bag and my keys were sitting right on

9:20 Speaker 8: top of the garbage bag I had just thrown into it.

9:21 Speaker 7: That's lucky.

9:22 Speaker 8: Still, i'd climbing and get the keys, but at least

9:25 Speaker 8: to dive.

9:26 Speaker 7: But everybody's garbage.

9:27 Speaker 8: That would have been That would have been horrible. That

9:28 Speaker 8: would have been horrible. But no, But anyway, we're very

9:31 Speaker 8: happy that you're here. I listened to the tracks that

9:34 Speaker 8: you sent. I love them all drift fantastic single. You

10:50 Speaker 8: Oh yeah, ten bands. Oh yeah, yeah, of course, of course. No,

10:54 Speaker 8: that's great. Now, so why is this? Why now to

10:58 Speaker 8: do an album? You mentioned this is your solo album.

11:00 Speaker 1: It is.

11:01 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a that's a great question. I had been

11:05 Speaker 2: in a band, the Stone Road Band.

11:07 Speaker 7: We were a band.

11:08 Speaker 8: Well, yeah, we played uh. I used to when we

11:10 Speaker 8: were on afternoons. I used to always play a breakdown

11:13 Speaker 8: A love that Yeah.

11:14 Speaker 7: Yeah, cool, thanks man. Yeah, that's that's actually that was

11:16 Speaker 7: one of our favorites.

11:17 Speaker 9: Yeah.

11:18 Speaker 2: I used to live down in Providence, Rhode Island, and

11:21 Speaker 2: we started the band down there, and we were together

11:22 Speaker 2: a few years and we put out a couple of

11:24 Speaker 2: things and and then you know, like everybody the world

11:28 Speaker 2: shut down and COVID and it kind of and then

11:30 Speaker 2: we were all kind of scattered at that point, and

11:32 Speaker 2: it was kind of harder and harder to get together,

11:34 Speaker 2: and eventually we just got to the point where we

11:36 Speaker 2: disbanded on good terms. But I kept going, and then

11:40 Speaker 2: I decided to become a musician for a living, and

11:46 Speaker 2: I guess it just got to a point where I

11:48 Speaker 2: was I was out playing.

11:50 Speaker 7: I play all the time, almost every week.

11:52 Speaker 2: I'm out playing somewhere, and you know, I got my

11:56 Speaker 2: sign with my scan coat on it, and and you're

11:58 Speaker 2: trying to promote yourself, and I kept At this point,

12:00 Speaker 2: it had been a couple of years since we had

12:02 Speaker 2: even been abandoned. I had no music with my name

12:04 Speaker 2: on it, and it was just like, you know, I

12:06 Speaker 2: wrote the Stone Road Band songs, but you know, I'm

12:09 Speaker 2: telling people like, hey, scan this code, go look up

12:12 Speaker 2: the Stone Road Band. Who's not a band anymore, and

12:14 Speaker 2: blah blah blah. So it really it just kind of

12:16 Speaker 2: started from the feeling of needing something with my name

12:20 Speaker 2: on it. So it was just going to start as

12:21 Speaker 2: like a four or five song EP that I was

12:25 Speaker 2: just going to record in my attic. And then I

12:28 Speaker 2: started working with the producer that I was working with,

12:32 Speaker 2: and we put together the first single. I mean, I

12:36 Speaker 2: thought this thing was going to be out like a

12:38 Speaker 2: year ago because I thought it was going to be

12:39 Speaker 2: like an EP. So I released the first single anything February.

12:45 Speaker 2: It was like the week before my daughter was born.

12:47 Speaker 8: Oh wow.

12:47 Speaker 7: I wanted it to come out.

12:49 Speaker 2: But when he sent that song back to me, I'd

12:51 Speaker 2: started recording on all the other ones, but when he

12:53 Speaker 2: sent me that one, I was like, Holy moly. I

12:55 Speaker 2: couldn't believe what he had done with it, and it

12:59 Speaker 2: sounded really good. So I just thought, you know, maybe

13:01 Speaker 2: I could keep going with that. I mean, I recorded

13:03 Speaker 2: this in my attic and he made it sound like that.

13:05 Speaker 8: Yeah.

13:05 Speaker 2: I just started adding songs and adding songs and it

13:07 Speaker 2: became a full blown Uh it was supposed to be

13:10 Speaker 2: twelve but now ten song record.

13:12 Speaker 8: Oh wow. Yeah, okay, okay, very good, very good.

13:16 Speaker 7: That was the longest answer ever. I'm sorry.

13:18 Speaker 8: No, No, that's great. No, No, we have the time,

13:19 Speaker 8: and I'm I'm I'm very interested. Yeah. Do you find

13:25 Speaker 8: do you find it more satisfying now? You know because

13:27 Speaker 8: you mentioned, you know, you talked about the Stone Road Band,

13:30 Speaker 8: is it? Is it more satisfying being a solo artist?

13:34 Speaker 7: I miss those guys.

13:35 Speaker 2: I always one of them is your brother, right, your brother,

13:38 Speaker 2: my cousin, cousin, he may as well be the guitar player. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

13:41 Speaker 2: Mike because I remember talking about him because his solo

13:44 Speaker 2: on Breakdown. Yes, so it makes a song, it's so good.

13:48 Speaker 2: So luckily they all show up on the record.

13:51 Speaker 8: Cool.

13:51 Speaker 7: Oh, that's awesome.

13:52 Speaker 2: So we had actually the first song on the album

13:54 Speaker 2: is called Friend of the Fire, and that's one of

13:56 Speaker 2: my favorite songs I've ever written. Yeah, we had recorded

13:59 Speaker 2: a live out which that landed on but it was

14:02 Speaker 2: live and I always wanted like that proper studio, you

14:05 Speaker 2: know what I heard in my head to come alive,

14:08 Speaker 2: and we had done originally wasn't going to be on

14:10 Speaker 2: the album, but I was looking to feel a little

14:13 Speaker 2: bit more space and and uh and kind of the

14:15 Speaker 2: album actually tells a story from start to finish, and

14:20 Speaker 2: and that landed as a great start. And anyway, I

14:24 Speaker 2: was kind of listening on my iPhone and on shuffle

14:27 Speaker 2: and this old demo that we had done of the

14:29 Speaker 2: song came up, and I'm like, man, I.

14:32 Speaker 7: Know what my producer is capable of.

14:34 Speaker 2: I wonder if it is then a Deanna Fielding in

14:37 Speaker 2: the Coop studios in New York. I was like, I

14:41 Speaker 2: wonder if I sent this to her, if she could

14:42 Speaker 2: kind of clean it up a little bit and do

14:44 Speaker 2: something with it. So, actually, the first song on the

14:46 Speaker 2: album is the Stone Road Band, and then there's a

14:49 Speaker 2: song called Brutus.

14:51 Speaker 8: Oh I remember playing that one on the radio too.

14:54 Speaker 2: That that was again another one that we had done live,

14:56 Speaker 2: but we never recorded in the studio. And so my

15:00 Speaker 2: cousin he's on that one. And then our bass player

15:03 Speaker 2: Phills on that one. Oh cool, I played the drums.

15:05 Speaker 2: But so yeah, so there's a little bit of Stone

15:08 Speaker 2: road Band action on on the album and like little

15:11 Speaker 2: nods to that kind of stuff.

15:13 Speaker 8: Yeah, you mentioned too, you're playing out a lot, You're

15:16 Speaker 8: you're pretty busy. Yeah, what what like are you are

15:19 Speaker 8: you playing these songs like that are on the album

15:22 Speaker 8: or are these the songs that you're playing live or

15:23 Speaker 8: do you mix in covers or like what what's the

15:25 Speaker 8: live situation?

15:26 Speaker 2: Like I do a lot of breweries and restaurants things

15:29 Speaker 2: like that. So yeah, I mean I'm lucky, and I

15:31 Speaker 2: think what's amazing about the brewery scene is that they're

15:34 Speaker 2: looking for something different. Yeah, and and really encourage artists

15:38 Speaker 2: like myself to come in and do our thing, and

15:41 Speaker 2: and so I I do you know, I know where

15:44 Speaker 2: I'm playing.

15:44 Speaker 8: So I.

15:46 Speaker 2: Do a lot of covers, but I do try to

15:49 Speaker 2: mix in some of these songs as I go. And

15:51 Speaker 2: and uh, it's a great community around here. Everybody's always

15:54 Speaker 2: very super supportive. And oh, it's really cool to hear

15:56 Speaker 2: original music. And uh, you know all my friends at

16:00 Speaker 2: like Great North.

16:02 Speaker 8: Yeah, and and and and uh.

16:06 Speaker 2: I looked over at Jen because her son, Jesse works

17:18 Speaker 8: stay busy, you can exactly.

17:20 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's I mean, there's how many breweries are

17:26 Speaker 2: it's like Dunkin Donuts now.

17:27 Speaker 8: Yeah, I know, it wasn't like that ten years ago,

17:30 Speaker 8: was it. No, it was not.

17:31 Speaker 2: Yeah, And I think that's it's I think it's actually

17:34 Speaker 2: made it. It's a really nice thing for guys like myself,

17:38 Speaker 2: who I'm forty three. You know, you wouldn't think that

17:41 Speaker 2: I used to work in like corporate America did all

17:44 Speaker 2: that stuff. And yeah, almost forty years old, I decided

17:46 Speaker 2: to stop and do this. Yeah, And I got to say,

17:49 Speaker 2: if the brewery scene and all that wasn't in existence.

17:52 Speaker 2: I don't know, because I can play on a Saturday

27:23 Speaker 8: playing this track Cecilia. Maybe we'll give this a spend, Yeah,

27:26 Speaker 8: and then we'll come back and talk some more. You

27:28 Speaker 8: want to tell us about this?

27:30 Speaker 2: So my daughter, who is fifteen months old this week, Sure,

27:36 Speaker 2: her name is Cecilia. And we did not do that

27:38 Speaker 2: on purpose because of the song, but obviously there's a

27:42 Speaker 2: pretty well known song that she shares that name with,

27:46 Speaker 2: so anytime we mentioned it, all we heard throwing back

27:50 Speaker 2: at Yeah. But the first night that we that we

27:54 Speaker 2: were home, my wife was upstairs sleeping and getting some

27:57 Speaker 2: much needed rest, and I was downstairs holding her like

27:59 Speaker 2: this wonderful moment of like, oh my gosh, I'm a dad,

28:03 Speaker 2: this is my baby girl, and and I'm like, all right,

28:06 Speaker 2: here's the moment. I'm gonna singer Cecilia for the first

28:08 Speaker 2: time how to get her to sleep? And I start singing,

28:11 Speaker 2: and I'm like getting a watery eyed and teary eyed,

28:13 Speaker 2: and then I got to the first verse, making love

28:16 Speaker 2: in the afternoon to Cecilia, and I'm like, what right,

28:22 Speaker 2: I can't sing that to my kid. That's awkward though, Yeah,

28:25 Speaker 2: so I read as as she fell asleep. I grabbed

28:29 Speaker 2: a pen and started rewriting the lyrics to Cecilia. So

28:33 Speaker 2: this is my version that we sing to her at

28:35 Speaker 2: our house.

28:36 Speaker 8: All right, very good, this is Cecilia Kevin Horn.

29:06 Speaker 6: To see.

29:07 Speaker 2: We are taking my heart, build up my carpet, Deavy,

31:13 Speaker 7: Baby girl just made her radio debut. That's her at

31:16 Speaker 7: the end.

31:16 Speaker 8: Yes, yes, Kevin and Cecilia Horrn. Very nice, very nice

31:21 Speaker 8: if you are just joining us. Kevin Horran is here

31:24 Speaker 8: with us live in studio and no, that's that's really cool.

31:29 Speaker 8: Is that gonna be on the album or no?

31:31 Speaker 2: No, I just put that out as a one off

31:33 Speaker 2: single a few months ago for fun. We actually I

31:37 Speaker 2: included a link with it to try to raise a

31:39 Speaker 2: little money for March of Dimes.

31:40 Speaker 8: Oh cool, Yeah, yeah, that's excellent. You also mentioned too,

31:44 Speaker 8: Gary Smith. You were mentioning off air. Gary Smith is

31:46 Speaker 8: on bas on that.

31:47 Speaker 7: He's playing bass on that.

31:50 Speaker 2: That song I recorded in my basement and a lot

31:52 Speaker 2: of it I recorded the night before we actually went

31:55 Speaker 2: into the studio with it. Yeah, and it sounded like

31:58 Speaker 2: chicken scratch. And then so Gary set me up with

32:01 Speaker 2: Pete Pelliquin.

32:02 Speaker 7: He's out in Brookline.

32:04 Speaker 8: That's a name that comes up on the show a lot.

32:06 Speaker 2: Yeah, he was awesome. We just spent an afternoon over there. Yeah,

32:10 Speaker 2: really cool studio. I think Cosmic Blossom has done a

32:12 Speaker 2: bunch of stuff with Gary's other band, Fox in the Flamingos.

32:16 Speaker 2: That's done some stuff with them. He didn't amaze I mean,

32:19 Speaker 2: if you listened to what that sounded like. Driving to

32:23 Speaker 2: his studios, like, oh my god, this is gonna be awful.

32:25 Speaker 2: Really yeah, just like he made it sound fantastic. But yeah,

32:28 Speaker 2: it's I'm pretty proud of that one. That's yeah, that's

32:30 Speaker 2: really fun to do. That's really cool.

32:33 Speaker 8: In terms of your voice, I mean, do you get

32:35 Speaker 8: compared to like you remind me of Kat Stevens.

32:39 Speaker 2: I've heard that a couple of times. Yeah, yeah, yeah,

32:42 Speaker 2: I hear a few things once in a while.

32:43 Speaker 8: Yeah, because you know, you have an unusual voice. There's

32:46 Speaker 8: not many people who sound like you. Thank you know, yeah,

32:49 Speaker 8: oh absolutely, thanks? Like who else is there anyone else

32:52 Speaker 8: other people kind of compare you to? Or is there

32:54 Speaker 8: anyone you think you sound like.

32:58 Speaker 2: I'm a huge Dave Matthews fan, so I think I

33:00 Speaker 2: think at the very least, your guitar style gets compared.

33:03 Speaker 2: Oh okay, because I was gonna say, you're a much

33:05 Speaker 2: better singer than he is. Not a knock on him,

33:07 Speaker 2: He's he's a good enough singer, but you're a much

33:10 Speaker 2: better singer than he is.

33:11 Speaker 8: Yeah, thank you.

33:13 Speaker 2: I'm a drummer originally, so yeah, his percussive guitar style

33:17 Speaker 2: really connects with me.

33:19 Speaker 7: That makes sense.

33:20 Speaker 8: I can hear that.

33:20 Speaker 7: Yeah, but yes, so I think in the early.

33:23 Speaker 2: Days maybe I got a little of that, but I

33:25 Speaker 2: kind of worked my way further, you know, tried to

33:28 Speaker 2: further myself from that. But I've heard the guy from

33:31 Speaker 2: Kings Leon yeah every now and then. Yeah, Cat Stevens

33:36 Speaker 2: a couple of times.

33:37 Speaker 7: Yeah, I don't know.

33:38 Speaker 1: I I.

33:40 Speaker 2: Don't know who else. Maybe I don't know who I

33:43 Speaker 2: sound like. Yeah, so that's a good thing. Yeah, that's

33:45 Speaker 2: a good thing. Yeah, definitely. So what remind us of

33:51 Speaker 2: the album comes out? Is it in June Friday, June

33:54 Speaker 2: twenty seventh, and then so it'll be on all the

33:56 Speaker 2: streaming platforms obviously. Are you also doing physical CDs? I'm

34:00 Speaker 2: working on that. I really really really wanted to do

34:03 Speaker 2: the vinyl thing, but it just like the record, it

34:07 Speaker 2: just it's expensive for one thing, that and it's just

34:09 Speaker 2: like the production took a little longer to get it right.

34:13 Speaker 2: I want, I wanted it to sound as perfect as

34:16 Speaker 2: it possibly could. I don't know, I might never ever

34:18 Speaker 2: do this again, so yeah, you know, I wanted to

34:20 Speaker 2: get it right. So we took a lot of time.

34:22 Speaker 2: I mean, we just wrapped on production of the album

34:25 Speaker 2: about a week ago. Okay, Oh wow, I just got

34:28 Speaker 2: all the final mixes like a week or so ago,

34:30 Speaker 2: so it's it's official. It's done, So it'll be on

34:32 Speaker 2: streaming platforms. I think for the record release party, I

34:36 Speaker 2: call them a record but probably at least have some CDs.

34:40 Speaker 8: Okay. Yeah. It's a subject that's come up a lot

34:44 Speaker 8: on the show, especially lately, as physical media and how

34:48 Speaker 8: you know. I always say, like, if you go back

34:50 Speaker 8: seven or eight years, I've been doing this a long time,

34:52 Speaker 8: but if you go back seven or eight years, maybe

34:53 Speaker 8: even a little longer, there was a period where like

34:56 Speaker 8: no one was doing CDs, Like no one that we

34:58 Speaker 8: had on the show.

34:59 Speaker 2: It was all about Spotify and everything, and no one

35:01 Speaker 2: was bothering. It was like the attitude was CDs are dead.

35:05 Speaker 8: And then but over the past several years there's kind

35:09 Speaker 8: of been a resurgence there with physical meta.

35:12 Speaker 7: Yeah, it seems that way. I always looked at it

35:14 Speaker 7: as so when the.

35:15 Speaker 2: Stone Roll Band was still rocking our first album we

35:19 Speaker 2: put on CD yeah, and that was about I think

35:21 Speaker 2: that was twenty nineteen, and we had that we kind

35:25 Speaker 2: of had that war of like should we do it?

35:27 Speaker 7: Should we even?

35:28 Speaker 12: You know?

35:28 Speaker 2: But like again, as I went off on my own,

35:31 Speaker 2: I just brought those CDs with me. I mean those

35:33 Speaker 2: people dropped ten bucks, five bucks or whatever. I didn't care,

35:35 Speaker 2: just take them. But yeah, I looked at them as like,

35:38 Speaker 2: whether you have a CD player or not, you've got

35:39 Speaker 2: all my information, you get all the songs, right, It's

35:41 Speaker 2: like to me, it's like a business card, right.

35:43 Speaker 8: Yeah. But I love physical media, so yeah, yeah, and

35:48 Speaker 8: with vinyl. And actually we're talking about this was with

35:51 Speaker 8: one of our guests on the show today earlier that

35:55 Speaker 8: the guys from the band The Forensics. We were talking

35:58 Speaker 8: about how, you know, most people who buy vinyl probably

36:00 Speaker 8: don't even ever open it, you know, like if you're

36:03 Speaker 8: really a fan of an artist, yeah, you know, you're

36:05 Speaker 8: just buying it to support them and it's cool to have.

36:07 Speaker 8: Or maybe you open it, but you mount the artwork

36:09 Speaker 8: on the wall or something, you know. Yeah.

36:12 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm I really wanted to do vinyl because like, so,

36:16 Speaker 2: I have three brothers. We're all vinyl guys. We do

36:19 Speaker 2: like that exchanges at Christmas and stuff.

36:20 Speaker 8: Oh nice.

36:22 Speaker 2: And I actually I got a lot of friends that

36:24 Speaker 2: have really gotten into that trend of the vinyl thing,

36:26 Speaker 2: and we're really into it at our house and but yeah,

36:30 Speaker 2: it's just you know, you do. I mean, I recorded

36:32 Speaker 2: most of this record and album by myself, so yeah,

36:35 Speaker 2: I'm just trying to be like, you know, at least

36:36 Speaker 2: I did that. Yeah, I got it done. Yeah, No,

36:40 Speaker 2: everything sounds great, thank you. So are all the tracks

36:44 Speaker 2: on the album where they all you recorded on your

36:47 Speaker 2: own and then took them to Pete Pliquin or so

36:51 Speaker 2: Pete did that one song that was I had no

36:55 Speaker 2: intention of doing anything with Cecilia. That was just something

36:57 Speaker 2: I thought maybe i'd record for her birthday or that,

37:00 Speaker 2: and then it just kind of like and then Gary

37:02 Speaker 2: and I he helped me, Like I said, he's playing

37:05 Speaker 2: with us at the record release, so you know, we've

37:08 Speaker 2: kind of buddied up, and he was like, hey, if

37:09 Speaker 2: you ever need any help, I got this guy Pete,

37:11 Speaker 2: And I was like, well, I have this one song

37:13 Speaker 2: that I've been kind of tooling with and it's you know,

37:15 Speaker 2: it's a cover but sort of a cover, and it'd

37:18 Speaker 2: be kind of cool to have that out there for

37:19 Speaker 2: my daughter one day to go back and listen to.

37:21 Speaker 2: But no, it's so like I said, when I started

37:24 Speaker 2: doing this, I just wanted to do like a little

37:26 Speaker 2: four track five track EP. When I was in the

37:29 Speaker 2: Stone Road band, we had done an EP in our

37:33 Speaker 2: bass player who was in a band with some guys

37:35 Speaker 2: out of New York and Connecticut. One of those guys

37:39 Speaker 2: has a studio called the Koop Studio in Irvington, New York,

37:43 Speaker 2: and he worked on our final EP. And when I

37:47 Speaker 2: went to go do this because we recorded all that

37:49 Speaker 2: from our house during COVID, Yeah, and he made that

37:51 Speaker 2: sound great.

37:52 Speaker 7: So he's the guy yea. So I reached out to him.

37:54 Speaker 2: He did the first single, Anything, and then his schedule

37:59 Speaker 2: just got cramped, and so he turned me over to

38:02 Speaker 2: somebody that worked in his studio, Deanna Fielding, and she

38:07 Speaker 2: did basically most of the record. Gary Smith did do

38:12 Speaker 2: the last song called Everything. He mixed and mastered that song.

38:16 Speaker 2: He played on it, He played some keys and electric guitar,

38:19 Speaker 2: but Deanna did all the other tracks, mastered him.

38:23 Speaker 7: She helped me produce it.

38:25 Speaker 2: She actually sang strange places. That's her doing the background vocals.

38:30 Speaker 2: Another song will play in a little while, it's called

38:32 Speaker 2: small Talk. That's her doing the lead female vocal on which,

38:36 Speaker 2: like ripped, I was like blown away when I heard

38:39 Speaker 2: her vocal take on it. But so yeah, so it

38:42 Speaker 2: was all done me here in New Hampshire recording and

38:46 Speaker 2: then her in Irvington, New York. Just I'd send her files.

38:49 Speaker 2: She do all the stuff to send it back to me.

38:52 Speaker 2: I had some help some from some friends on that

38:54 Speaker 2: last song. Zach Sweetser plays keys, like I said, Gary

38:59 Speaker 2: Smith made an appearance, The Stone Roll Band made an appearance.

39:03 Speaker 2: Deanna helped out. And then my friend Paul Nelson, who's

39:06 Speaker 2: a local guy, he helped me record the vocals to Drift,

39:11 Speaker 2: and I think the acoustic guitar, a couple of things.

39:13 Speaker 7: It was a little kit of you know. But yeah,

39:15 Speaker 7: i'd say like eighty eight of it.

39:17 Speaker 2: I did in my attic and then before my daughter

39:20 Speaker 2: was born, and then I moved to the basement after my.

39:23 Speaker 7: Daughter was born.

39:23 Speaker 8: Oh okay, why the move from the attict of.

39:26 Speaker 2: The basis the addicts directly above her bedroom?
