Katie Chastain, New Haven.
From the latest Pennybird photoshoot. Vintage dresses via Amanda and Artifaktori. Our good friend and makeup artist Courtney missed the shoot due to a family emergency, so we improvised. Katie had a killer hair idea for this which involved sculpting around a toilet paper roll. That’s my girl!

Perfect Day, Boston Commons.
After walking by the Swan Boats in Boston Commons for the last five years or so, guess who finally rode the Swan Boats. Yup. And I can’t wait to do it again. Most relaxing 5.5 minutes of the day.

Recording Curtains. New Haven, CT.
When you make an album and have considerably more amazing amounts of friends than amazing amounts of money, you travel around and set up gear in these amazing friends’ houses. Witnesseth ye the amazing Jonny Rodgers playing Hammered Dulcimer on Curtains.

ProTools 8. Vocal Comping
I LOVE the new track comping feature in ProTools 8. Not to mention the new visual aesthetic.
(For any of you reading who might also be PT users… the above mentioned comping feature also enables something I’ve been waiting a long time for ProTools to integrate: the ability to add or cut time in a session and have it make the change across every single playlist. To do this, just expand each track to playlist view before you make the time change. Yes! Highly recommended.)

Katie’s new album. Cambridge, Ma.
Just finished a long week of vocal recording. Anytime I see multiple screens on a desk I am still compelled to take a photo. As in, “check out how much techmology we is using.”
