In the studio with Bruce Swedien
Bruce Swedien
Just got picked out of thousands of people from all over the world to go down and spend 7 days and nights with Bruce Swedien in his studio, and learn from the best about recording and mixing. There were 10 of us picked, it will be a one on one teaching in his studio in Ocala, Florida. As you know Bruce did the mixing and recording of Michael Jackson’s albums and so many others, what a great blessing to happen. I’ll be posting how things went.

The Most Extraordinaire Instrument
This incredible machine was built as a collaborative effort between the Robert M. Trammell Music Conservatory and the Sharon Wick School of Engineering at the University of Iowa. Amazingly, 97% of the machines components came from John Deere Industries and Irrigation Equipment of Bancroft , Iowa.. Yes, farm equipment! It took the team a combined 13,029 hours of set-up, alignment, calibration, and tuning before filming this video but as you can see, it was WELL worth the effort. It is now on display in the Matthew Gerhard Alumni Hall at the University and is already slated to be donated to the Smithsonian.

“The Doors” Documentary
Woody
We just spent the day working with Woody Harrelson doing the narration for the documentary movie “The Doors”. The movie is based on how the band got started playing music together, the ups & downs of the 1960’s drug culture and the fame that came their way so quickly. The band endured such pressure on there lives and it ended in total tragedy with the death of Jim Morrison and the breaking up of “The Doors”. For those of us who lived through this era, this is going to be a great movie.

Woody, it’s been fun! Keep playing your piano, and we’ll jam together again.
