Helena tracked vocals for a new song yesterday. A number of takes to sift through & again I’m making changes to the instrumentation. Not a bad thing. Time to sweat the details. One more song to go. Hoping for a late summer/early fall release.

Finishing up the music video for our cover of @thelilactime ‘s Don’t Feed the Rats. Film source is taken from one of my favorite go-tos, Maya Deren. Premieres Friday, 30 May to an unknowing world.

Just about finished with this cover. It should be ready later next week. Hopefully there will also be a hurriedly created, roughly edited video to go along with it. Do you know the song? ✌️✨🙂

Helena vocals for a new song! 2/4 songs complete. Tough sledding due to illness, work, and general ennui. Halfway there & hope for a late summer/early fall release of new material. Here’s a short clip, a rough mix, & even rougher video w/ phone sound.✌️✨🙂

In her not-so secret life as a food historian/writer, Helena was back on #thefoodthatbuiltamerica last night, talking about boxes of chocolate. You can stream it on the the History channel. Fab! ✌️✨🙂 #foodhistory #foodwriter #pittsburghband #historychannel

Happy #InternationaWomensDay to Helena Nichols, #foodhistorian /writer (& soon to be back on ‘The Food That Built America’!), Associate Major Gifts Officer, home reno whiz, #singer / songwriter in this little music project, loving mother, wonderful wife, & all around fab person.✨✌️🙂❤️ #pittsburghband

Working on new music. Here’s a sample of the drum track from an upcoming song. Features a sampled Univox JR-5 loop & some 606 & vintage electronic drum sounds via Logic. Groovy.

Please enjoy this clip from the music video for our cover of ‘Silver Raven’ (Gene Clark). Full video on our YouTube page. #musicvideo #geneckark #coversong #pittsburghband

We got a new mic!

Also: We have recorded a cover of a classic slice of Americana, albeit as ambient electronica w/ pseudo-psychedelic backwards guitar & lots of reverb & delay. Currently mixing & mastering & figuring out a video. More soon. ✌️🙂 #homestudio #coversong #pittsburghband #silverraven #geneclark #logicpro

Yesterday was all patching & turning of dials to create percussion sounds & ambient pads. Went old-school (w/ modern equipment). Bass drum/percussion via #volcamodular, hi-hat & white noise snare via #cre8audio #eastbeast, & grainy ambient pad via #volcakeys .✌️🙂 #pittsburghband #semimodularsynth

Feeling inspired to create/record today. Not saying it’s the Electric Heaters hat that is responsible, but also not saying it isn’t. Might also be the guitar. ✌️🙂🎸
