Anderson East is an immensely gifted singer, guitar player and songwriter and his band is fantastic. Any time I'm able to record something like this, I go to sleep a happy man. I wish we could have recorded a whole album that day! These songs and many fine others can be found on Anderson's album Delilah (Low Country Sound: https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/delilah/id1009091106)
Special thanks go to Forlorn Strangers' Jesse Thompson for assisting with the engineering and even manning the second camera! We were able to use a bunch of the mics from Peluso Microphone Lab's arsenal including the 2247se on Anderson's vocal. It's such a warm and classic sounding mic that it's tough to resist! We also used their P-12 to capture his guitar and P-49 as a drum overhead, which gave me my favorite drum sounds of the series so far. Lastly, we used Peluso's tube-ribbon TR-14 with the horns. I really didn't fuss too much with any of the tracks and let the band and these mics do the heavy lifting.
It was also a treat running the Nord keyboard through the Vox AC15, which we received from our friends at Empire Music (http://empiremusiconline.com)
All audio for Yellow Couch Sessions is recorded and mixed by Steven Foxbury of Yellow Couch Studio. Video for this session was shot and edited by Matt Dayak.
