Its beautiful outside today.ย The weather is just perfect, not a cloud in the sky. I am getting ready to head over to Squashed Grapes in Ventura to see my friendGergo Borlai play some drums with Scott Kinsey and Jimmy Earl. Can’t wait to hear this. He is also putting on a little drum clinic, so it’ll be nice to learn some new things ! Getting ready for a big show up in Fresno on May 20th. I’ll be substituting on bass with The Dtease, playing an opening spot for a band called Puddles of Mudd. Its very loud and very rocking, so I have been turning it up a bit ! I look forward to it !
Have a championship day!
Thanks to the Church of the Suncoast today for the invite to work with the band today. First class place with first class people. They even allowed me in with no metal detectors!๐ Thanks for having me, it did my soul a lot of good!
The most important payback of all the remote recordings I do is this. When the artist is happy. I'm happy. I love to vibe with them. That makes my day! This guy is straight up dope. @blonde_and_nervous
Who knows what kind of bird this is? I thought it was a Pterodactyl, but what do I know from living in the jungle. Never saw one of these before in any yard I've ever lived in. Smart ass answers welcome!

I have a big turtle in my backyard. I don't know anything about reptiles, or barnyard animals at all, but if you ask me, it feels like the jungle here. This is amazing to me. #turtle
Sometimes, I just like to look at it. Harley Davidson Road King, police model. I can't wait to cruise around Florida in this with authority.#harleydavidson #roadkingpolice #livetoride #1percenter #bike
I loved working on this single from Germany. You are an amazing artist with a stellar cast and I hope you sell a million copies!
Happy New Year from the pool ! I'm not a big New Years Eve guy. In fact, I almost never make it to midnight anyway. But I can go for a swim ! I hope all of you have a safe New Year, and I hope this pandemic thingie is over soon, and everybody can get back to work.
Out and about! We just drove from Pacific to Atlantic, then down to the gulf of Mexico to our new home ! I feel free !#trav #florida #travel
You need a good welcome mat at your new digs. They got the spelling right too! Yippee!๐#sarasota
Moon over the Pacific. Last night living in California. Beautiful. Priceless.
Well, the time has come. We are leaving California and close escrow on our house in Oxnard early this coming week. Headed to Sarasota Florida, where new digs, warm weather, bugs and new adventures await. I've really loved many things about Southern California, and it's been a rollercoaster ride for all 5 of the years, which is just the way I like it. Met some awesome people, and have done some amazing things, and seen a lot of great things, and played/worked with some of the best musicians in the world here. I'm still going to do what I do, just from another "workstation". If you need a good broker, check out @meggiehawthorne. She'll do you right๐
When you are an early riser, and you see this as soon as you wake up with your coffee and you're about to fix the wifi๐๐ #happywifehappylife
Here's some drums and bass for you. I've been experimenting with some effects and I saw a really good drummer in IG and asked if I could play a groove with him. 16 seconds of groove, and taking. my Spector for a ride! Enjoy the solid drum groove of Tim Anderson aka @timsonofander from New Jersey. Enjoy!
These 3 are on tap today. Sukop 5, Fender Jazz 5, and Spector Euro 5...all with #bartolinipups #ghs strings #tsunamicables #bassplayunited #bassplayer . Running some original music and a remote session from Brazil and a short vid. I'm even going to use a pick on one of the songs. I always try to play what the song needs.
Big building in Oxnard CA. Carry on.
Yesterday, I posted a full video of this song called "Distracted" in its entirety by @vollestadofficial from Norway before it's official release date, so I had to edit it down to 20 sec "teaser style". No harm done, so here is another one. Check out @larakaymusic in the Netherlands. It drops on 12/11/2020. Music is international. That's one of the things I love about it. Sorry previous "likers"๐. Again, I used my Fender Jazz bass with year old strings. #australia #netherlands #bassplayunited #sessionmusician #popmusic #waynejonesaudio #ghsstrings #tsunamicables #bartolini #bartolinipups #studio #recordingartist #remotebass
Happy Thanksgiving to all ! Be thankful, and do what you do today. Enjoy!
Big thanks to Henry @solomonmics for sending me this rad solution for my remote recording needs. Now, in addition to a DI input, I can offer a huge sub sound to all my remote session clients the world over. Yes I'm a geek. Big shout-out to @davestarkdrums for the referral. @waynejonesaudio @bartolinipups @ghsstrings @tsunamicables #bassplayunited #sessionmusician #recordingstudio #geek #subkick #lofreqmic
