Leave All Your Fears At The Door

And enter the rehearsal room of your grandmother’s favorite new band.

If you have been to a thatwasthen show,  then you must have wondered what it takes to develop the songs, their lyrics and the sound of all your favorite songs. If so then you have entered into a state of mind called thatwasthentia. As I sit in a sound proofed room in a studio in sherman oaks, CA i cant help but notice just what it takes for the boys of thatwasthen to write, create, develop and perfect the next new song. i have seen first hand the process, the creativity and the drive for perfection that go into their music. i saw such songs as absolute zero, girl (you don’t have it), both to blame and mr. politician transform from just chord progressions and lyrics into full blown rock songs. what comes from these rehearsals is developing to the best of their great abilities the songs they write until they are as perfect as they believe they can be.

With so much training in musical theory, it’s no wonder that the guys can write, play and sing so well. But with so many new songs being performed it’s hard to believe  just how these new songs go from ideas to 100% ready to perform so quickly.

At the next rehearsal we shall delve into some of the new songs, see the changes made. How old songs are changed and new songs are written.

Kindest Regards
