I’m producing Matt’s song ‘You Can Kiss Me’. This is Mr. Dorrien laying down some electric guitar on the chorus. Chris Cubeta engineering at Galuminum Foil Studios in Brooklyn.

Today I was back at Galuminum Foil Studios in Bushwick. This time to produce Matthew Dorrien‘s great song ‘You Can Kiss Me’ alongside engineer Chris Cubeta, assistant engineer Garry. Our Canadian rhythm section consisted of drummer Jamie Alegre and upright bass player Garth Stevenson, and on background vocals we had Casey Shea. Bad quality cell phone picture below per usual!

Last night’s top 3 performers according to the jury below were: Becca Stevens, Elias Orling and Matthew Dorrien. Becca’s song was easily the most sophisticated of the night, Matthew’s the catchiest and Elias was just all around entertaining. I was definitely heavily under-tattooed amongst my lovely fellow jury members Michelle Rakshys and Taeko Saito (look at that awesome sleeve), but we got along nonetheless. Go here to check out a photo slideshow of the night taken by Jen McManus.
