It was pretty heartbreaking to be in a windowless room on ... http://www.sinclairmusic.co.uk/727/ Don't know if you're aware, but I am a massive Alter Bridge fan. I've even got Miles Kennedy (lead singer (plus he's on tour with Slash!!)) listed among one of my biggest influences. Absolutely love them. Anyway, they just announced the tracklisting for their new album today ... http://www.sinclairmusic.co.uk/726/ I spent yet another day down in the basement today, although I think it was a good day to choose to be down there given that it hammered it down with rain all day.

It was so much fun playing in front of such large crowds who were so up ... http://www.sinclairmusic.co.uk/europe/ So had the recording session with HB on Thursday, and it ended up being a long one. We pulled an all nighter in the studio and I still feel I'm paying the price for it now! We definitely got a couple of quality tracks down though, which was the aim, ... http://www.sinclairmusic.co.uk/all-night-sessions/ Off into studio with Heaven's Basement tomorrow to put down some vocals on a few tracks.
