Up up up! Early and out! Recording trumpet by the wonderful Matthew Halsall today. He’s down in London for a residency at Pizza Express Jazz Club and Ive made him get up early and mission it in the joy that is Good Friday public transport services to record one song at half ten in the morning. Benskilz says that Im a slave driver. I must get that from my Dad.
Matthew is recovering from the night before so Kat aids him with a Peppermint tea and I offer him a Percy Pig. Mmmm Percy Pigs. Then its on with ‘Same Old Thing’ Scrimshires favourite and a bit of a mishmash of different styles. Mainly Spanish and Eastern European with a pop chorus and a constantly changing tempo. Matthew totally spanks it.
Think we are gonna work on a project involving the choir at some point this year. Looking forward to that!
