Nada Surf, Amy Rigby, Ryan Adams CDs

I'm happy to report that there's three new CDs available that I contributed keyboards to, and they're all excellent. Nada Surf's new record "The Weight Is A Gift";  Amy Rigby's "Little Fugitive" and  Ryan Adam's "Jacksonville City Nights". The Nada Surf record and the Amy Rigby record both feature keyboards recorded at my studio Carousel (my first official credits!) and the Ryan Adams CD was recorded in a fast & furious week at LoHo Studios down in the LES. Check 'em out!
