The process has been an ass kicking self study in obsession and learning to let go even if everything isn't perfect. Overall, pretty proud of the result. The EP is called Round Trip Ticket and it's on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon, pretty much everywhere you can stream. The feeling of putting music out there at this point in my life is both exciting and scary. I have big time insecurities about my playing which expresses itself as imposter syndrome. I've struggled over my adult life to accept that any music I write is good in anyway and looking back I've sabotaged some projects over the years (if any of you impacted happen to read this, I'm so sorry).
Onto some tech talk. The vast majority of the guitars are my Strandberg NX6 but a few parts the Harley Benton Dullahan makes an appearance. I used 3 amp models for pretty much everything: leads were all USA Lead Mid Gain Bright with the LT BRIT412 V30 Mix IR, Rhythm was a mix of that model and the FAS Modern same IR, the Clean stuff was a modification of preset 322 CE-1 Chorus/Vibe (used a JC-120 model). Bass was the GroveBass VST and drums EZDrummer. Recorded in Reaper.
Take a listen, hopefully you'll dig it.
