Jake Anderson, drummer by nature, has been playing guitar and writing songs recently. This past week he and Brandon Dvorak came in to create what I believe is the first official Jake Anderson recording.
Full Of…
Jake Anderson – Bocals, Guitar, Drums
Brandon Dvorak – Bass, Backing Vocals
Charlie McCarron – Synthesizer
Frozen, forgotten
What’s the difference?
So now wish me luck
I’m full of hate
I’m full of
You’re the coldest shoulder to lean on,
Silver glazing eyes
Gazing over the ocean,
Waiting for the sunrise
Frozen, forgotten
What’s the difference?
So now wish me luck
I’m full of hate
I’m full of
Soon, with the toll of the turning season,
Like the fading tide,
The coldest shoulder to lean on
Forever mine
Frozen, forgotten
What’s the difference?
So now wish me luck
I’m full of hate
I’m full of
Since I called on these guys kind of last minute, Jake’s song was still in progress. But it already had some great guitar riffs and vocal melodies. So the three of us jammed a bit and worked out the song’s structure. Probably to the annoyance of our upstairs neighbors. But sometimes you just have to keep repeating the same thing over and over to get a few sparks of inspiration.
Brandon recording some soothing backing vocals. Six takes total, and since he was right on pitch every time, I used them all!
I really had no idea what Jake would bring to the table, since I hadn’t heard him play guitar or sing solo. I think his voice is pretty awesome, though, and his guitar skills are honed. Hopefully we’ll hear more solo stuff from Jake soon.
Jake, Brandon, and my cousins Matt and Nate Graves are all in the band With A Gun For A Face. They play around the Twin Cities quite a lot, so check out one of their shows. I usually make it to around 50% of them, so maybe see you there!
