He plays a loose, casual folk or &#8220;Americana&#8221; style with acoustic guitar and vocals, occasional harmonica, etc.<\/p>\n<p>The session went fairly well, even though I was pretty unorganized; we recorded his vocals and guitar together to get an intimate, live feel &#8211; though that made it pretty tough to do any &#8220;punches&#8221; or re-tracks if we needed to. He nailed a great version after a couple takes, and it sounded quite good.<\/p>\n<p>We then made a few small additions; a subtle tambourine and kick drum during the chorus, a small ride hit on the last chord &#8211; and he let me drop in a simple vocal harmony on the chorus as well.<\/p>\n<p>When all was said and done, I think Jeffrey enjoyed the experience and liked the results. And I enjoyed working with someone new. I hope to get together with him again soon to track the other tune. This time around, we may try separate tracking, maybe even a metronome, just to leave options open. But ultimately, it&#8217;s his project, so we&#8217;ll do what he wants! \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I did some recording last Thursday with my friend Jeffrey Fields; he had a couple new songs he wanted to demo, and we got one tune done during the course of the evening.
