wrote a fifth original cello song tonight. i'm happy that i'm able to do this. i've never written cello-only original songs before this year. also, it will be good not to have the second album be all covers again ( Read more... )

i am still totally low-tech - i use a nearly 20-year old 4-track tape recorder. My setup is that, with a low-budget vocal mic (anything similar to an SM-58 will do), and a pair of headphones for listening back to previously recorded tracks ( ... )

i want to hear! i love the cello and often wish i'd learned to play...

Thanks! The demos are too rough to post yet, but if/when I re-do them, I'll post some here.

Keep in mind that learning an instrument is exactly the same at any age after adolescence. A 20-year-old has no advantage over you, if you were to start now. You just have to commit the time :)

I saw Clutch open for System of a Down about 7 years ago. Weird.

Weird! But cello on a Clutch song is weirder, I guarantee.

Even if it doesn't work, at least I will have hung out in the studio with Clutch.

Yeah, no kidding. Sounds like an experience at the very least. You should tell the Internets all about it.

You have the honor of being the only person I know who composes w/ cello.
Very rad!
