ACM@UCO

I was recently asked by my good friend Kevin Lively who teaches recording classes at The Academy of Contemporary Music at UCO to be a guest artist for one of his recording classes and record a song with his students. Over a three week period we get 2 hours a week to give the students an experience of a real recording session. They do everything from setting up equipment, running cables, setting up mics, as well as running the board and learning how to run Pro Tools. I only wish I had access to a studio like this when I was getting my degree in Music Business. We are recording a new tune called "I Wish You'd Call", and have already finished 2 of the 3 classes getting drums, acoustic, electric, and leads already recorded. It has been tons of fun and I'm very impressed with how professional and serious the students have taken everything throughout the sessions. What a great thing to have right here in Oklahoma for students who have a passion for music! The music business is a crazy tough business to be a part of, and I have certainly learned a ton from my experiences working in this world. The hands on experiences these students get at ACM@UCO are amazing and equipping them for the real world of the music business. Very cool stuff!

Here are some pics from our first two classes:

What a weekend!!

Man, what a great weekend this past weekend. Friday, I got a chance to play an acoustic show with my long time and very good friend Nathan Clewell at Red Dirt Grill in Lawton. What a great time!! We'll do it again, so I hope you can make it to the next one!

Saturday, I shot the video to my new single, Oklahoma County Line. Thanks to The Hopper Ranch for letting us use their facilities, and thanks to Gary and Tammy for getting some great footage! I can't wait to share the finished product with you guys! Here's a pic

Finally on Sunday I got a chance to play Texas Red Dirt Roads with Justin Frazell at Fat Daddy's in Mansfield, TX. What a great time telling stories and song swapping with Bo Phillips and Bart Crow. Thank you to all the fans for coming out to the show and for those of you who got to listen online!

It was a lot of work, but more than anything it was a lot of fun. Thank you all for your support, I couldn't do it with out you!
