FEATURED ARTIST OF THE WEEK: COPPERWORM

Hi! Everyone,
This weeks FEATURED ARTIST OF THE WEEK is Alternative Rock Band COPPERWORM 

1. Please introduce yourself
We are Copperworm, an alternative rock band based in the North West (UK) and we're made up of Peter Wolfe, Brent Copson and Andy Wood
Originally formed in 2015 in Warrington by Peter and Andy, we reformed 6 months later after our original bassist left to live in Columbia and then our new bass player Brent joined the band 

2. How did you get into music?

We all got into it different ways but each of us were in bands previously. Peter was in a band when he lived in Kent called the Blue Room mostly doing rock covers but some but before that leaned acoustic blues from  friend he made in a pub he worked in. Brent was also in a covers band and Andy was looking to expand his horizons

3. What instruments do you play?
Peter is the vocalist and lead / rhythm guitarist, Brent plays bass and Andy keeps it thumping on drums
4. Who are your influences?

Influences are pretty varied but include, Led Zeppelin, Pearl Jam, early UFO, Black Sabbath, Jimi Hendrix, Soundgarden, Cream, Reef and the Doors

5. Tell us about your latest release

Most of our songs come from jam sessions and this was no exception. Brent cam up with a bass line and Andy jumped on with the drums and I (Peter) just started jamming a riff. Like a lot of our songs, it was recorded in one take but without any vocals. I took it away ad had the tune running through my head. Lyrically it's about gangs chasing someone down in a city. Could be anywhere and all the victim wants to do is get out of here, hence the title. I recorded the vocal overdub and that was it. Job done.


6. What's your song writing process? 

As before it's all collaborative from jam sessions. We've been playing together long enough to just 'get' where each other is coming from, so it just clicks into place. We usually find we come up with one or two new song ideas a week

7. Which musician/ artist would you most like to collaborate with & why?

There are loads of great indie bands out there that most people have never heard of. It would be great to work with Underground Vault, Shadow of Everest, White Man Dancing or 10 Gauge. At the peak it would have to be Pearl Jam. Such a huge influence, nice guys and very talented

8. If you were on a desert island what 3 musical gear would you take? 

Peter - My Epiphone Electro acoustic. Andy would take his acoustic set and Brent has an acoustic bass. If the island had electrics (solar power) then we'd be electric all the way. You just can't beat that turned up plugged in rock driven sound!!!


9. Where can fans find your music (links etc)?

We are on all the major outlets, Spotify, Apple Music, iTunes, Google Play, Amazon Music, YouTube etc.

Here are some of the links

Spotify


Amazon


Google Play



I would like to say a huge thank you to COPPERWORM for taking part in 'Featured Artist Of The Week' 😀😀

Until next time

CUBASE & LOGIC PRO X- BYPASS ALL PLUGINS!

A few weeks ago someone posted in Facebook group about how to Bypass ALL plugins in Cubase 8.5. (As some of you may know i use Cubase 8.5 in the main studio). It's a lot quicker than turning off each individual plugin. Here's how to do this: CUBASE- Go to File  Key Commands  Mixer (Section) Bypass Inserts Type in box a key (e.g. B etc) Assign OK When you press that key all plugins should be bypassed on the mixer LOGIC PRO X- As far as i know at the moment you cannot just press one button/ key & turn all the plugins off simultaneously. You can row by row.  Here's a quick video tutorial : Hope this helps Until next time Law Official Website LW Music Services Twitter Facebook (Law) Facebook (LW Music Services) Youtube Instagram Soundbetter

FEATURED ARTIST OF THE WEEK: JELLY CLEAVER

Hi! Everyone, this week's FEATURED ARTIST OF THE WEEK is the very talented  singer-songwriter, musician  & producer JELLY CLEAVER JELLY CLEAVER Please introduce yourself I’m a singer-songwriter, jazz guitarist and producer. I’m also an activist and this really influences my music and the lyrics I write. I love lots of different genres so have quite an eclectic style and like to throw myself into different music scenes. I’m really into the jazz scene and the punk/DIY scene in London at the moment.   How did you get into music? I started playing guitar as soon as I could hold one pretty much because my dad was a guitar teacher, and I’ve always had a really deep connection to music. I’ve tried lots of different aspects of music out though, from leading an African singing and drumming ensemble to starting a rock band. I just love music in all its forms.   What instruments do you play? Guitar’s my first instrument but when I’m reco...

GRANDE ARTIST?

ARIANA GRANDE is no stranger to the charts. Recently ARIANA managed to get the top 1, 2 & 3 spots on the billboard top 100 charts simultaneously. The last time this happened was in 1964 by THE BEATLES who got all 5 top spots. At the moment 11 songs from her album 'Thank you, Next' album are in the top 40. (The only song from the album that hasn't made the top 40 is 'Make up'). DRAKE nearly managed this when 2 of his songs were at spots 1 & 2 & 4 simultaneously. That is a great achievement for ARIANA Until Next Time Law OFFICIAL WEBSITE LW MUSIC SERVICES  (Mixing & Mastering) TWITTER FACEBOOK (Law) FACEBOOK  (LW Music Services) FACEBOOK (The Solar project) YOUTUBE
