Writing Cello Parts

Phil Hirschi and I had a fun rehearsal last night, we’re working on cello parts for one of my newer songs, ‘ Suite: Maid of the Guillotine’. Since I don’t write music notes, this is often my view of Phil as he tries to make sense of what I’m looking for while I’m singing smatterings of melodies and using nonsensical words to describe how it should sound. Fortunately, Phil is very clever, and can find the notes and styles I’m trying to communicate and comes up with great suggestions.

We’ll be performing ‘Suite: Maid Of The Guillotine’ soon, it has a neat feel, we hope you’ll dig it.

Best,

SJ

Sunday.

If every day could be as good as today…

Hobbs, Benjamin Rud, and I shot a quick live video
today, I’ll post it soon. I’m looking forward to shooting some more with them.

And then I spent the afternoon playing some songs
with Phil Hirschi from John McLaughlin’s Mahavishnu Orchestra on
cello. That was super fun, as always. Phil is going to play some
shows with us in January, which will be pretty rad.

And then Phil dropped me at my solo acoustic show downtown at The Corner Bar and
I got to try out some new songs, and I met some very lovely folks.

Good stuff.

And now I’m going to watch the season finale of Dexter.

More soon!
