Coming up for air, Gasp.

2008 was a great year. Got a record, yes vinyl, on Alternative Press Magazines top ten albums of 2008 (Kay Kay and His Weathered Underground). everyone should own a copy of the rainbow colored double vinyl, rad.

The past few months have been crazy, The Bad Company 5.1 DVD is still in progress, Since October I have completed five CD projects (Billy Shew, Above the Water, Gin Betty, Revengers and James Hill).

So far this year I just finished mixing an EP for “Lizzie Huffman and her Brother” and started basic tracks with north end rockers “Dog Leg Preacher” fun times with these guys, we will be finishing up an EP or full length soon.

In this weekend are “Newtons Law” and late this month I will be finishing “Middstokke’s” EP and “Atomic Bride’s” full length.

Also in is longtime friend and past student Jordan Cumming with his band “The Sea Navy” finishing up their full length.

“Wild Orchid Children” are also due in to record their full length release soon as well.

Phew…

Thanks to all of you who have helped make The Tank happen !

much love-
Tom

Yes, lucky enough to have this project come through the door. Jim Rivers (Whitsenake, Motley Crue, Queensryche, Paul Rogers), is doing their live mixing and landed the gig to mix the live DVD and audio CD- Jim has quite a history as a killer live and studio engineer- welcome Jim.
