February News: Grammies, Recordings and Soup
We just returned from the Grammys in Los Angeles, which always feels like stepping into a parallel universe. I’m still buzzing from the events, reconnecting with old friends, meeting new ones, and being inspired on so many levels. It was also a welcome break from the intense wintery Brooklyn.
I have barely had time to digest it all, because I’ve officially started the mixing process for my new boat album ‘Current’ with Jeremy Loucas.
I’m spending time in his studio at Sear Sounds NY, where artists like Paul McCartney, Norah Jones, David Bowie, Patti Smith, and Björk have recorded. Watching Jeremy work, almost entirely in analog, has been deeply inspiring. He ran the sound through a real tape delay – see the video here. Hearing those echoes felt like time folding in on itself. We have a few more sessions coming up, and I can’t wait to share it with you soon!
Tomorrow, Tuesday, 17th, I’m performing at Chinatown Soup NY, for our monthly intimate Velouté Electro-Jam. It’s an experimental night with our trio Eva Novoa, Art Jones, and special guest saxophonist Daniel Carter. Doors at 6:30 pm, show from 7 to 8 pm. 16B Orchard Street, New York. If you’re in the city, I would love to see you there. Here is a video.
Teddy has been writing beautifully about our multi-sensory experiences, and it inspired me to launch my own Substack as well. I’ll be sharing some reflections, notes, and small stories, so if you’re curious, I’d love for you to join me there.
Thank you for making space for my work in your life. I’m excited for what’s coming next, and I’m so grateful you’re here for the ride, or should I say float?
