in my hands...and then yours

Category: Music

After a few snags, I can safely say that the physical copies of my new album ACT NATURAL will be in my hands between September 22-October 2! And I hope you will want them in your hands soon too. Make sure you pre-order here so you can receive a free download while you wait for the signed hard copies. I encourage anyone who lives overseas to order the download through » Continue Reading

master! master!

Category: Music

Yesterday was one more piece of the ongoing puzzle that is my new album ACT NATURAL. Finally got to master the cd at Joe Lambert Mastering in Peekskill, NY.  This will all be worth it, right? Was great finally meeting Joe, definitely a chill dude who loves lots of crazy guitar work (even mine!) Mike Sabatini joined me for the drive up, took the scenic route, was very pleasant.  Once inside the stu... » Continue Reading

round two

Category: Music

After some snags and delays (on my end), the new album ACT NATURAL will finally be mastered and pressed hopefully end of this week. Those who pre-ordered, thank you very much! There's still plenty of time to do so by going to this link: Act Natural Now for round two. I will be releasing the second single/video hopefully in two weeks. Unlike the first one where I prepped everything in advance, and ... » Continue Reading

The video for "Act Natural" made its entrance at 10am today on my YouTube channel . So far the response has been pretty positive! Glad people dig the dancing and cat stuff. What's a metal video without cats! Anyway, you can pre-order the new album through this link: » Continue Reading

very pleased so far

Category: Music

The first single released from the upcoming 9th album last Wednesday is picking up steam. It's the title track entitled ACT NATURAL. Responses have been VERY positive, with people saying overall amazing things about it. I like that! My friend DJ Metal Mistress played it first on her show Wed night and the feedback in the chat rom was awesome. DJJD played it the next night on his show, more known f... » Continue Reading

done!

Category: Music

Mixing for album nine is DONE!! Listened to the whole album in Mike's studio and it's KILLER! I can overhype but won't. Other bands do that well enough. All I will say is this... You are NOT ready for this one!!! » Continue Reading

one more to go...

Category: Music

This just in...seven songs fully mixed, with one more to go. And then? We will have a listening party (with pizza!) at Bandmother Recording to make sure we all agree the music sounds as intended. And then? Onto mastering and releasing the first single/video! I will reveal the album title as well as track listing very soon. So far, the shortest song clocks in at 3:01! And the longest is at 6:50!! E... » Continue Reading

strung along

Category: Music

I made this post on other socials but failed to mention it here...oops!  Well here it is. As of July 5th, I am now an endorser with Aurora Strings in Bridgeport, CT! I was with GHS for quite a few years, and while I have nothing bad to say about the company or their product, it was time for me to move forward. I was always aware of Aurora but never delved into the brand until recently. Saw some po... » Continue Reading

more mixing...and i heard one tune so far!

Category: Music

Happy 4th to all of you (those who celebrate that is!) Mike sent Brian and I a mix of one new song last night. All we could say WOW! Everything sounded fat, punchy, ballsy, clear as a bell. Some more minor tweaking will happen but overall...HOLY MOLY! This particular song is the title track for the new album. And I am already piecing a video together for it so when I receive the mastered version, ... » Continue Reading

some mixing has begun

Category: Music

Got a call from Mike (drummer/engineer) yesterday and he said he started "some mixing" on my new album. And in his words, it sounds "f---in' killer" so far.  I believe it! Last time I heard this music was back on June 10 when I laid down my solos. And even then, with the music totally unmixed and the edges still sharpened, everything sounded massive. Mike was telling me about little tricks he's le... » Continue Reading

mixing to start soon

Category: Music

July 3 is important for three reasons: 1) THE most important one is that my son Julian will be 22 years old on this day! 2) I signed my deal with GHS Strings! 3) Mixing for my ninth album will start on this date too... I've not heard the final results since June 10, when I laid down my solos. Listening back after a couple of weeks will be interesting. Normally, mixing happens within a day or two a... » Continue Reading

and that's a wrap

Category: Music

Yesterday I laid down all my guitar solos for the new album. Which means...hold on... THE ALBUM IS DONE!! Much like waiting for Xmas morning to arrive, the anticipation of recording loomed large for many months. And when we tracked the drums back on May 4, I told myself "This will be over before I can blink." I was right. What seemed like an eternity was more like the Road Runner zooming by.  No f... » Continue Reading
