From the Whigs sessions at Chase Park Transduction in Athens, GA.
The Whigs' new album, In The Dark,got some love from Rolling Stone the other day. Check it out here.
Go see why they're one of the best live bands on the planet. Tour dates here.__

Cutting some B-sides with the boys.
The Constellations, my former band and current friends, have been signed to Virgin Records. We're working on some bonus tracks for the label over the next week or so. Meanwhile, the Clap Squad sleeps:
Ryan strapping one on for some guitar parts:
Look for the album to re-drop mid-2010. Consider yourself lucky if you downloaded Southern Gothic or bought it in the store from MRNB, as the artwork and even some of the songs will be different. No matter what, thanks for the support!

Not necessarily in that order, but sometimes.
Life moves fast in the studio.
Toys of the trade.
Noah surprised everyone with his mad pop and slap bass techniques. It's all over the new EP.
Sorry about the crappy iPhone photos, but I left my camera at home. Won't happen again, I promise. (Except in the next few posts...)

Whigs Album Cover Art
So, Whigs record started this week. We're working at my home away from home, CPT. Our engineer, Tom Lewis, is tweaking Vari-Mu's and other toys to perfection.
Meanwhile, David Barbe is pontificating about the finer points of Little League, again on his soapbox.
Pre-production started here, a garage in Athens, situated conveniently next to a small sandblasting operation. Basically, the garage door stays open until sandblasting starts, then we pull the door down and bake like tomatoes in a hydroponic growing room. Nice, especially considering the now-tropical temperatures in Athens.
Luckily, we have Juno on hand to offer advice as well as proper dressing procedures. Tim is busy making magic like a whirling Dervish, while Julian and Parker ponder the implications of playback.
I'm not sure how we'd get anything done without tie-dye.
