Welcome to my second post on my newly found blog. I have decided to bring out posts more often than once a month. This is so I don't forget the very things I feel I want to detail. So with that being said, Lets get started.
This past weekend was a busy one for me. On Saturday night I performed with Jenna Sighed and we did an Emalyth gig - Lure of Shadows. Situated at Rumours Lounge in Weltevreden Park, the show started off at about 6. Despite the cold air outside, it was certainly warm inside. The sound was clear and loud and for a minute I couldn't differentiate between my heart beat and the bass thumping. It was now our time and Jenna Sighed leaped on stage after setting up with a certain quickness and after doing a nice little line check we hit our set. It was definitely fun and our first Emalyth show seemed to be enjoyed by the folk at Rumours. We will be doing another Emalyth show on the 28th July and I will be sure to keep you all posted.
Also on Saturday, the boys from Energy Related went into Wired Sound Studios and finished off the guitars and bass. They pulled off a 12 hour shift and Sunday was my time to join them. We finished off the drumming to two tracks and then started on the lead and backing vocals. This was fun as I normally don't sing at all. After a grueling day and a two pies and coke special lunch break, we finished and it was declared "a wrap". Now its just the post production to wait for. Exciting stuff.
This Friday marks our arrival (Jenna Sighed) at Boston Rock Lounge where we will take part in the Battle of Woodstock Pt 1. Pull in and check us out. I have posted the event just below. Also this Saturday we arrive at the Doors Nightclub to take part in the Punk VS Metal gig. Brought to you by Black Apple Productions. We are on at 18:30 and I have organized a great friend of mine Garrett Richardson to come and film me with a GoPro to do some "drum cam" shots as well as some other Awesome angles :)
I am also doing a photo shoot for Because of Betrayal. My other great friend Lionel Lodewick from Tutto Fotografia has let me use his studio this Saturday while mine is under renovations. These lads are really cool and their music is technical and brutal. Keep a look out for them at a show near you.
So that is all from the Awesome this week, hope you enjoyed it :)
I'm sure I will see you at a gig, photo shoot or somewhere else.
PS. Also be sure to check out a Music Mate store near you. They are currently having a Clearance Sale this whole week up until Saturday the 30th June. So DON'T MISS OUT !
