Category — My Remakes and Remixes

I met Ben Smith and Matt Parmenter, two dudes from out of state that now live in Austin, when  Matt purchased my two Vocal Booth sound isolation booths last month (sorry about the missing parts guys!).  I just didn’t have room for them anywhere.

Now – I am starting to work on music with these guys and I got to tell you it’s a blast.  Both are very talented musicians in their own right, and I’ve been lucky enough to get to remix some of their stuff.

Matt plays bass in a great Austin banned called Quiet Company – they also have a myspace page.

Matt and Ben both also play with James Kinney, a local Austin musician.  I am going to see them at Speakeasy on April 30th, time permitting.

This song is fully realized on Ben’s myspace page, but here’s the acoustic version I whipped up last week.  Just Ben and his guitar.  His vocals and songwriting talent really shine on  this one.

Creep.mp3

I started writing a song one day a few years ago (in the 2000’s) and realized the chord progression sounded familiar.  Well, it was – it was “Creep” by Radiohead.  So, instead of giving up, I just decided to put my own spin on this whole thing.  This is it.  I think this is the first cover tune I have ever recorded.
