STUDIO meets video - capturing lightning in pixels
The trend of studio sessions recorded in a straight to social media video is a unique way to capture a creative day with six musicians and share it with the world. Looking forward to more sessions like this in the coming months!
Songwriting with Joe Slyzelia is an absolute treat. Add that to working with the incredibly talented musicians at Fox Menagerie and we created something special. Thanks Joe & David Jerabek for brining me on. Pleasure performing with y’all - Paul Bannach, Tom Jones Sax, Dev Munson. Beautiful video Dana Jerabek!
when the pandemic hit, i wasn’t sure where music fit…
I knew music would always be a part of my life, but when performing live came to a halt, I pivoted to my media career to get me through the doldrums. To be honest, I wasn’t sure where or how music would come back professionally. The opportunity to perform with Road Trip was an absolute dream and a blessing as restrictions began lifting. After nearly two years with them, I headed back into the studio to begin bringing my musical ideas to life.
Just as my final gigs with RT began wrapping up, I was asked to contribute to a project for Bob Balsley: a local guitar legend in Green Bay, WI. Select musicians in the area picked one of Bob’s original songs from his 50+ years of performance and record their own take. I saw this as the perfect opportunity to get back in the studio with some of my favorite musicians and bring the arrangement to life.
