New Record is FINALLY in the works!

Like the heading says, I’m finally back in the studio doing what I love, playing music. After months, years actually since my band's (www.delaxton.com) last recording, we have finally decided to put out a 6 song EP. The process is refreshing, as we’ve just completed tracking the drums. Thanks to our friend Joe at Cutting Cane studios, they sound jaw-droopingly AWESOME.

Being in the studio made me feel like a kid in a candy store, the greatest candy store, EVER. The reason I say this, is because the studio is jam packed with enough random yet interesting gadgets that it makes you feel like a child again. Ok Ok, perhaps only musicians/music lovers would really appreciate the awesomeness that is Cutting Cane studios. But you tell me, what kind of place not only has loads of incredible equipment, incredible vinyl selections, random toys, and Grammy’s just laying around? It was a very humbling and incredible experience to be in a place where a lot of great things have occurred. My FAVORITE part about tracking drums, was playing a variety of vintage guitars and instruments (I.e 1968 Fender Telecaster, 1959 Gibson Les Paul Re-issue, Gretsch and even a sitar.. yes, sitar!).

Anyway, we’re hoping to get back in studio ASAP and track bass and guitars. Our last visit was a straight 12 hr session where we got all the drum tracks done (it was a busy day). We’re hoping to get a lot done on our next visit, so wish us luck! As always, here are some pics:
