Jerry Tone Chats Jay Faires

Yo! Sorry for the delay in episodes! Been busy with some various fun things in the world of music - got back to practicing a bit today on acoustic from fully cold to "warm enough" for the day. Took about 30 minutes to get there, and hopefully there's some fun technique topics I touched on in this episode. Told some stories about recent fun road gig with Brown Eyed Women, filling in for my dear friend Joni Bottari. Lots of fun!

I finally got to sit down with my dad and capture some of my favorite stories of his over the years, as well as a bit about how he got into taping and why. Several more parts to this interview coming eventually.

Designed to give some explanation as to how revolutionary of a discovery this is for our Jerry Tone nerd world, it's my friend Waldotronics on a rare phone call with me to hammer out some of the details and nerd out over some wild observations in regards to Jerry gear and when it was used. So proud of Waldo for his tenacity! 

Today's solo hang ended up being all about phrasing...what is good phrasing? What is bad phrasing? 

Trying my hand at talking through some musical concepts. Not intended to be an instructional episode, moreso something to inspire discussion or reflection on your own phrasing!

Happy playing and tone chasing, y'all!

What's up y'all!! 

It's been nearly 3 years since I've uploaded a podcast episode, and oh my, how we've grown! I get a lot of DMs asking similar questions, so I figured I'd set up mics late at night and chat & play for a little bit and hopefully share some fun info in the meantime. Love your faces.
