Dave’s Song featured on HomeMade Hits Podcast

Filed under: News — webmaster @ 8:39 pm

Dave’s song You Can’t Make Her Stay from the new album Hard Road Home has been featured on hugely popular independent music podcast Homemade Hit Show. This is the first time this song has been heard publicly.

The show has a home recording bent to it and Bruce has given an insight into the recording process behind Dave’s work.
“The album was tracked and mixed entirely in my house. The process? Dave would come and record a scratch acoustic guitar and vocal track to a click. Then, I’d get the drummer over here, and he would lay down the beats to the click, acoustic and vocal. Then, I’d get the bass player over to lay down his bit. Then, Dave would come back and we’d start laying down electric guitar
parts, then a “keeper” acoustic part, then a “keeper” vocal. Next, we’d do backing vocals and any hand percussion (if required). Then, I’d mix it.” comments Bruce on the podcasts show notes.
Of the process of recording live musicians, particularly drums, in a house he said that Bruce was “stretching the parameters” of home recording.
