Shadows of a Song from Sarah Sample’s album Someday, Someday
Posted on Thursday, 19 August
everything on this record was done completely live, and there was very very little comping or editing at all. this included at times 5 part vocals, 7 or 8 instruments, etc etc.
we recorded the entire album in 3 days - July 12th-14th. all in all, thanks to Sarah’s excellent songs, and the amazing players who gave their all, this is one amazing album.

Sarah Sample came back with a whole new batch of amazing songs.
This time we decided to go for a hybrid approach to the all live in one room thing we did on Sarah’s last recording. You can see a video I shot on my phone as the band was learning one of the songs here. If you’d like to hear even more, check out this version of Calling My Name that Jed Wells shot when we were out for lunch during the sessions.
The main difference was putting Mr Pat Campbell off in his own room, so he could be free to open things up a bit. I must say it was so great to get to hear Pat let loose again.
I went with my own version of the Glyn Johns 3 mic method. U67 up top, AEA R84 looking over the floor tom to the snare drum.
