Geordie Greep shares live performance filmed in New York
Geordie Greep (guitarist and vocalist in black midi) has shared a live concert film recorded in New York at TV Eye.
The film features Geordie’s US Band, Santiago Moyano on Percussion, Charlie Shefft on Drums, Cameron Campbell on Keys and Dave Strawn on Bass. Geordie says his intention has been “to do a Keith Jarrett thing’, have a different group of session musicians in a different place and lean into the fact that we’re not going to get it the same.”
On his debut solo album, The New Sound, over thirty session musicians were involved in the making of the album, on two continents, in São Paulo and London.
"Some of the tracks we had recorded already, elsewhere, but it just wasn’t right, so we re-recorded them with new people," he explains, "Half of the tracks were done in Brazil, with local musicians pulled together at the last minute. They’d never heard anything I’d done before, they were just interested in the demos I’d made. The tracking was all done in one, maybe two days. Then we did the overdubs later, in London."
The New Sound is out now on Rough Trade Records.
