Who are these mysterious, faceless men? What are they hiding?
Here are my mic positioning photos and notes from my first session with the virtuoso Guitars Alive Quartet making what will become a record called Latin Groove.
We recorded 12 songs live over two weekends at Cosmic Dave's in Sudbury. I mixed the record at the Junkshop and Andy Magoffin mastered it at the House Of Miracles.
Latin Groove will be released in June 2019.
