The Monday Sessions: Songbird (Oasis cover)

Part of The Monday Sessions

About Songbird

Again, here is another song that I used to do back in the day when I was in a band.

This recording kinda happened by accident really.  Last week, I bought a new condenser mic (the Marantz MPM1000) and this morning, I was testing it against different cameras.  Anyhow, after a bit of jiggry-pokery, I managed to get it connected to the iPhone through a Zoom H4n.

Sat there and then this happened.  Started off with the concert ukulele and vocal track, and then went from there.

Part of me wishes I had one more track left to record on, as I feel the video would benefit from a solo or two, but that said, I am quite pleased with how this one turned out.

Enjoy.

About The Monday Sessions

About Merry Xmas Everybody As John Lennon once sung, so this is Christmas...  So yeah, as Christmas approached us this year, I began to consider whether I should bother recording a festive song or not. Now, I'm not the biggest fan of Christmas songs, most of them are...
