We have been working hard here in “Off White Trash studios”. Our next full album, “Banned Wagon”, is recorded and in the mastering stage. We expect a mid March release. This album features us turning up the tempo a lil’…….
On “Everyone’s Banned” I focused so much on harmony and trying to create an atmosphere that was unique and felt like what we are. I needed to play a couple power chords this time. We still are focused on harmony and melody, but let our foot start to stomp a little.
Here in “Off White Trash Studio” we can stomp our feet, pick a banjo off the wall or plug a les paul guitar into a marshall amp. The studio is crammed with instruments and things that make noise, but it’s very orderly. Even the broken glass has its place. The mandolins and guitars hang on the walls, acting as if they are the most beautiful things ever created and they are. The cymbals, drums and guitars resonate with every sound, like the sympathetic strings of a sitar. Clap your hands and you can hear it. It makes us smile and see what our microphones can do. We recorded a thunder storm, crickets, the tearing sound of many things, breaking things, a violin bow on a bass, on a mandolin, on a drum…… why not?
Doesn’t always work the way you think it will, but damn its fun!
