Recording Music!

    Recording music can be very fun but is also one of the hardest parts of being a musician. Every musician wants to make sure the music they put out is the music that they want their fans to hear and it may not seem like it would be but, it's very hard to record the kind of music you want to portray. I say this mainly because if your a great live band, it's nearly impossible to record the sound that you have on stage in the studio. I’ve found that the best way to record is to do it in a place where you're comfortable. I'm my case, my comfort zones are my basement and Red Herring’s bassist, Max’s studio.
    If you can learn how to record on your own I fully recommend it because you can always work on a song and you can change whatever you want when you want. That being said, the experience of going to a recording studio can be very inspiring. Red Herring Visited Pearl Sound studios and recorded our new single (out February 10th) with Chuck Alkazian. The boys and I had a blast there and Chuck is such a great dude.
  One thing that is also really important in recording is to have a producer and listen to the producer. It's very important to find a producer that you trust. A producer will make a song album and radio-ready AND they give another opinion to the song that you may not have.
     I love recording music and it is such a great feeling when you are finally able to release your songs. Both the Syd Burnham band and Red Herring plan to have new music out this summer so keep an eye out for that!
