Josh Charles Tonight in NYC - 8/6/08

Recently i had the distinct pleasure of mixing an album by artist Josh Charles. ( www.JoshCharlesMusic.com ) Josh describes his sound loosely as "NoTown", a fusion of New Orleans influences, Motown influences, soul, and modern pop. (i'm sure thats not exactly accurate, but you get the general idea, and there are songs posted on his website). At its core, the album has really great, memorable songs, with performances equally captivating. However, where the band truly shines is live on stage, and tonight they'll be playing at the Cutting Room in New York City at 8pm sharp. The Cutting Room is at 24th street between Broadway and 6th Ave. Go see them. I'll be there cheering!

Lots of great things have been happening for Josh, and i'm sure many many more are to come. Of special note, one of my favorite bass players in the world, and old friend, Paul Frasier, is on bass with Josh tonight. I've worked with Paul on many projects, most notably Paul played on the David Byrne album "Look Into the Eyeball" which i recorded and mixed, and played on a couple songs myself. Paul is truly amazing, as is the rest of the band. If your at the show, look for me and say hello! And if you miss the show, then check out the music on Josh's website, and let me know what you think of the mixes :-)
