I’m wrapping up an EP called “Loss”. It’s a bit of a dark thing revolving largely around the subject of death. Jason Smith put down some drum tracks and I’ve been working on acoustic guitar, bass and vocals. Scott Hall will be putting down piano tracks this week and Bob Hennessy is gonna break out his mandolin. Mark Schwaber makes a guest appearance on guitar and Jose Ayerve is helping out with harmony. I hope to release it in the upcoming months.
Tracklist:
If You Actually See Me
Surrender
Bad Neighborhood
Breathe Easy
Friend
My wife Samantha left for a few weeks to do some work in Tampa Bay. My friend Mike Wyzik (Ghosts of Blake, Storm the Ohio, Red Door Exchange) and I came up with an idea to write and record a record while she’s away. We decideed not to talk about it until she was gone. No ideas, no plan. All we had was the name Scary Beard. The day Sam left Mike found a used digital 8 track for $150. We set up a Roland 707 drum machine a Korg synth and filled the dining room with guitars and pedals. We wrote and recorded 11 songs in 8 days. We had some lyric writing sessions with a few special guests and will most likely be done recording on schedule. We’re going to put similar restrictions on the mix. Whoever does it gets one day.
