I mentioned a couple of weeks ago that my Sober Nixon bandmates and I recently did some recording in my living room (while watching the Giants beat the Phillies and win the NLCS, by the way). Well, slowly but surely Sober Nixon's bass player, Ho, who also is serving as producer on this little project, is polishing up each of the songs we recorded.
If you want to hear one of the recordings, simply click here. Remember, we're a cover band. So yes, we play songs other people wrote.
I admit, my vocal rendition lacks the anger of Elvis Costello or the urgent melancholy of Nick Lowe, who did write this tune. However, I stand by my performance. Especially since I'm in the process of learning to sing, and probably the most important thing I've learned is that it's a slow process. Anyway, enough with the excuses... just enjoy! We're not exactly a garage band, but I think our recent recording session makes us at least a living room band.
