Yearly Update

Hmm…
Table Topics:
CUSH-​​Who in the hell knows… As men­tioned before Andrew and I have mul­ti­ple jams ready to go.  We just need a vocal­ist.  Last night I got a suprise in my email; a scratch vocal and some bgv’s on one of our songs.  It sounded great.  Hopefully before the end of the Mayan cal­en­dar we can share it with you.  Tentative title “Always Disapper”.
The Lassie Foundation-​​Who in the hell knows…  We are still in haia­tus.
CVSC-​​Kevin and I plan get­ting together within the next year to fin­ish some more songs.
Stranger Kings-​​A new project that I started with Herb Grimaud, John Hertzberg, and Holly Nelson.  We have started record­ing a song that should be avail­able for release in the next month or so.  What does it sound like?  Well I think that it sounds like the shit!

Without Further Delay

The first incar­na­tion of NorthernTV is now play­ing. We have some lofty aspi­ra­tions for what NorthernTV can become but we have decided to bring you what can best be described as ver­sion 0.0.  This ver­sion is not the HD chan­nel full of com­pelling con­tent that we hope to bring you in the future, but we think it is a good place, and time, to start. Check out some videos by Northern Records artists, both past and present, along with some other video from across the web that we will be adding in the com­ing days.  Thanks for your patience.

Telegram — “We Look And See”

January 4, 2010 by The Doc · Leave a Comment 

Almost 2 years ago, I was intro­duced to a guy named Nick, who had a very com­pelling voice and wrote some great songs.  Not to men­tion he was/​is a fel­low Star Wars nut.  Instant love, and we’ve been work­ing on stuff since then, fight­ing all obsta­cles man-​​made (self-​​made) and oth­er­wise.  We have released 3 songs, the first of a tri­ol­ogy of 3P’s, called “We Look And See”.  It is a great plea­sure to work with Nick, and the icing on the cake for me per­son­ally is that I got to play a whole lot of gui­tar and bass on it as well.  Yay for delay pedals!“Who You Are” is the old­est song, and went through a few ver­sions.  Tracked, retracked.  Sung, resung.  Its one of those songs that hit me as a ‘clas­sic’ on the first lis­ten.  Beautiful.“Planet Emily” arrived this sum­mer, and got remolded a bit by Barrett Slagle when he mixed it.  Thanks to power of mod­ern tech­nol­ogy, it got a much needed kick in the pants.“Sleeping In” came very recently, and blew me away.  Fast, loud, and a great melody.  And fuzz gui­tar.  Yay for fuzz guitar!More on the way.

Telegram vs Nick

August 25, 2009 by Cupie · Comments Off 

Late last night i went down to Northern’s stu­dio to work on some songs only to be hijacked by Telegram/​Nick record­ing a piece music that i can only define as art.  As a rule, of my own, i gen­er­ally don’t con­sider most music, includ­ing my own, art.  What i heard last night was art and it was hum­bling, excit­ing, beau­ti­ful, con­fi­dent, and very frus­trat­ing. What Nick and Andrew were work­ing on was beau­ti­ful and spe­cial.  It was frus­trat­ing because it was an uncom­fort­able reminder that there is no grace given to those who are lazy in Rock n Roll.  The lazy fail.c  

Summer Songs

August 19, 2009 by The Doc · Comments Off 

New Music!A cou­ple of weeks ago, Telegram posted the song “Who You Are” on their Northernworld page.  We have been work­ing on this song for quite some time, and it has gone through many vari­a­tions.  In the form which has been posted, it includes yours truly on lead gui­tar and bass, Dylan on drums, Tysen on rhodes, and Nick play­ing gui­tar and singing (and cre­at­ing the ‘space’ sounds).  The basics of drums, bass and rhythm gui­tar were tracked live together at Northern, and then a long period of vary­ing over­dubs, start overs and redos com­menced.  It’s a favorite of mine, and I hope you enjoy it as well.This week, we have the first song from Leslie DuPre Grimaud, a track called “Raven’s Song”.  I had the priv­i­lege of play­ing gui­tar on this song as well, and even man­aged to squeek in the last minute use of my Convulsion Fuzz.  Eric and I have known Leslie, and her hus­band (some guy named Herb) for years and years.  Among other things, she fronted the only legit dark­wave band in the early days of the SoCal scene, and added the haunt­ingly beau­ti­ful vocals to “58” and “Never Enough” by the Prayer Chain.  She has hun­dreds of amaz­ing songs, wait­ing to go, which I look for­ward to being a part of​.So, finally, new music.  More to come, sooner rather than later.
