Really nice tasteful playing there... nice to see some soulful blues soloing. Notice your pups buzz a lot, hate it when mine do that!

Here's a song which I recorded a few weeks ago with my mate. Story is, I gave myself a stupid task for college. We have a project going on where you pick an objective, then have a deadline to achieve it. I gave myself the task of writing, recording and mixing an original song. Now the latter two parts are easy, seeing as I've been doing both for a couple of years. However writing songs is a bit more difficult. Needless to say I came up with a stupidly difficult song to play, went to record it and found out that it was near impossible for me.

I went home and realised I had just over a month until my project was due in. So I spent the next 5 hours on my guitar coming up with riffs, until I got something which I really liked. Quickly came up with some admittedly bad lyrics, then recorded a basic acoustic version on to my computer so I could remember it tomorrow.

Tomorrow came and I rang up my mate who has a makeshift recording studio. His name's Ash, and is one of the best drummers I have ever seen, insane. Says to him I got a new song which needs recording, you free today? He says yes so off I go to his house and record. Within minutes he's picked it up and we get recording. Drums were the first take. Then we recorded everything else, guitar, bass and vocals in under 3 hours. All pretty much one or two takes apart from the vocals. Then we spent the next hour trying to mix it.

This is the fruit of our labour, not really mixed yet and the rhythm guitar needs re-doing, but I am extremely pleased with how it's turned out. Please give it a listen if you have a few spare minutes, I'd very much appreciate it.

I played everything apart from the drums and wrote it myself.

Cheers,

Tom.

I am exactly 21 years old. Here are some videos of my band playing and a few of me playing with a backing track.

Hope ya'll enjoy!

oh Cathy you have given me opportunity to bore everybody with the proud dad thing. So hope that it is okay for me to post these up on his behalf as he is at school, - he has seen Joe twice!

my son, - Will when he was 12 (now 13):
http://youtu.be/ppN8uTBqrI8 and http://youtu.be/GsgCsoNqnsQ
- and Riley the springer spaniel gets a look in.

and as an ensamble: http://youtu.be/XeiPMeoCBtQ

and age 10 playing on his own for the first time in front of about 100 people:http://youtu.be/1Xs40QzLF9w

This is one of his first times on stage, - age about 9: http://youtu.be/GPFksqi0N3s

so from that to this  http://youtu.be/JFikVs3rJZY taken last year when he was 12, - I think one of their best performances, not least because of the way that they set it up with the classical introduction, - this education authority group is made of stuffy (not all) classical types who have a real problem with this group of kids because they do not fit the mould of what they want them to be. - I could go on for hours about the amount of government money that is wasted because the departments do not engage the kids, - all of these kids come together to play like this but their teaching is done privately one to one.

Cool man that's really good I'm impressed! Only thing I would say is work on the mix a little - the lead guitar seems a little too low in the mix and also a tiny bit less overdrive in the intro would be perfect

Great playing !

I watched this before and think you should include Carl Perkins as an influence. Great stuff!! Diversity is a beautiful thing   Cathy

JLowther, I really liked your country pickin' video. Such a good country tone.

What kind of delay are you using to get that slapback?
