TRACKING!!! It worked out great w/ all 4 FATL guys plus Ryan Granger (5 total) playing live together. We had amps upstairs and headphones all around.

And Simon rockin' out during the tracking sesh.

So many cables when you have a DIY tracking space and recording studio.

Granger's setup.

Guy Keltner's setup.

Cables galore.

Overdubbing some guitars at CMS.

Peter on my washburn semi-hollow w/ flat-wound strings.

When overdubbing, its good to bring toys.

The Grizzled Mighty

For The Grizzled Mighty we spent 3 days in the studio (LBS) tracking and then brought it back to my place (Chartreuse Muffin Studio) to mix. I'm very excited for this thing to come out... Release party at Neumos on Feb 1st: https://www.facebook.com/events/384017641691207/. Hope one and all can make it out!

Yes. We tracked to 2". A827. 456. Win.

Yes we tracked live. Why wouldn't u?

Drums were fun. The kick was getting a little overwhelmed by the cymbal bashing, so I used a packing blanket over it. I'm really happy how these behemoth drums turned out on tape. First time I used the telefunkens... cool present but not harsh sound on the brass. I had to spot mic the trash crash after the first song... feeling as though we were losing it a bit too much on the outer edges.

Whitney Petty in the drivers seat. I don't know anyone who hits as hard. She uses souvenir baseball bats. There were some issues keeping headphones on... hence the bandanna.
