Studio de Simple Citizens : Day 2 - 1st day of Vocal Tracking

Awww...this is the weather southern California promises, 80 degrees in January...sheesh... and they say global warming isnt real. It's day 2 of the recording session and we are tracking the vocals. We had to build a little make shift vocal booth and then buy a little gentleman and we were on our way. Here are some photos our friend Dan (Simple Citizens trumpeteer) so kindly took....

Studio de Simple Citizens : Day 1 - Drum Tracking

We arrived to the studio early in the morning to begin work on our first EP. We were lucky enough to record our demo in relatively warm weather and enjoy summer breeze, but for our first EP session it was a different story; there was a mess of fog and rain as we unloaded into the studio. When we got into the studio we met up with our friends Judd and Sam (members of The Simple Citizens...a rad band! check them out) they pretty much engineered the project because we were recording onto a tape machine, which we have never done.  We will be documenting our time in the studio and keeping you up to date with our progress. 

love.love.love.

Here are some photos of Curty bear setting up his kit and testing out levels:

Hello World

Welcome to the brand new Links Official Blog. We'll be documenting the recording of our new record here, and uploading random pictures whenever we feel like it.

Here's some exclusive news (blog only): We are going on tour again in California from March 26th-April 5th. Dates to come very soon.

Peace.

Future Sounds Writeup/Showcase

LINKS were recently featured in a write up over at the Future Sounds blog in their "Hottest Music From the US" column. Here's what the fine Mr. Larry Little had to say:

"Links jump into the scene by adding a new riff to the sound that bands like Kings of Leon have been developing. Listen to 'Testify' and you'll want to go on record for support. Word is that their live show is better than their recordings - could be the new Faces?"

We'll be playing the Future Sounds "Rumble" showcase with Nico Stai on January 8th.
