Studio Day 15 VOCALS
Wow what a terrific first day recording vocals, the planets
and stars were perfectly aligned. Well, more likely proof that
practice pays off I have been working hard at it! I recorded 5
songs with only 2 takes each and nailed them, I am so very
happy with the recordings.
I started the session with No More as I have been singing
that one for along time now and knew it would be a good
confidence builder. Next up I stayed on the bluesy side of
things with Lightening Strikes Twice and let my inner Elvis be
released and I smoked it :) Switching gears into rock Today,
a breeze and though a brand new song I felt I resonated with
the writing and words, I really connected with the song and
production. Adam suggested to do the harmonies
immediately as I doubled harmony only on the word today
but it did take me a few minutes and attempts to switch into
harmony. We turned it upside down with Sleek Train and
its slow, trippy groove. I wasn't fully confidant I had arrived
with this tune but surprised myself with my flow and my
performance was exactly where I wanted. The session ended
with my I Found You Adam asked me to change my approach
after the first take and hold back, more softer and gentler
in my delivery and I loved the idea and it truly fits it better
more personal and intimate.
After recording vocals (about one hour) we edited them and
also edited the piano/organ on four of these songs. Adam
then sent the new tracks to Huggybear so he can get familiar
and ready for his session in 2 weeks!
Next up 6 more songs for lead vocals and then a few
harmonies.
