i’m thrilled to share that i’ll be performing some classic bangers during the 4th quarter of this week’s @bengals home opener.

i truly can’t wait. WHO DEY!

Friday from the Floor

Thanks a lot for your excitement, questions and comments on the Tightrope video I posted this week. I’m looking forward to getting more guitar/gear/theory-centric material up soon. In the meantime, here’s Mira.

LETS TALK GUITAR
I’m gonna be diving into a number of @walkthemoon songs are we’re doing the album retrospective over on the band account. This one’s for TIGHTROPE, from the self titled record. Lots of chord names, bits of theory. It’s about as jazz as WTM gets.
Leave me questions or maybe song suggestions for next time??

< TALKING IS HARD > pt. i

Coming off of touring the self-titled record, it was clear that we had accumulated too much gear to return to our parents’ basements. We would need to find some new digs in which to write the next record. All the normal rehearsal studios popped up (mostly in Nashville), but nothing quite fit the bill. That was when we discovered the Living Lodge, right across the river from Cincinnati in quaint Dayton, Kentucky.

The Lodge was a Masonic Temple that had been converted to a creative playland. The place was set up for all kinds of art to be ushered into being. It was here, among the restless ghosts and towering flights of marble stairs, that we set up in the Great Room to get down to the business of what would become < Talking Is Hard >.

We wrote at a frantic pace. Virtually a song a day for weeks. We would write and record the instrumental during the day, then Nick would go home and track vocals at night. The majority of the record came together from us jamming in this special place.

But we weren’t done. After our time at the Lodge concluded, Nick and I made trips across the country to keep writing and collaborating with friends and legends (fregends?) - @captaincuts, @noahberesin, @timpagnotta, @johntheblind - digging deep and trying everything, exploring to see what this new record could be.

All said, this extremely creative time in our lives would lead to more than fifty new songs, a cache that would feed the next three records we made. We were finally ready to head into the studio to make our sophomore album.
