More on the NPR online recording story

Thought I'd introduce my musical collaborators for this piece (available at the NPR site).

Phil Robertson, aka e-studio-drummer, drums and electric bass. He's based in Vancouver. A bonus for me was that he (unlike some studio drummers) was willing to work with a guitar/vocal track that was not recorded with a click. My time was steady in the original performance but certainly not machine-perfect--I prefer music with imperfect human rhythms.

Tim Kobza, slide guitar. This session was arranged through Joey Finger of Sessionplayers.com. Kobza is a versatile player who lives in the LA area and teaches jazz guitar at USC. Here's his MySpace page.

William Nicholson, mixing help. He's a very fine guitarist--check out his site.
