A Recording & Mastering Studio in Baltimore
Andrew from The New Age Outlaws recently came in to Mobtown to have their debut record mastered. Andrew, a recent high school graduate recorded the record himself at home. Quite an impressive feat for someone barely 18. Andrew has some skills and I had a great time working on the project with him. Here are a few songs I enjoyed:
This past spring Cameron Blake put together a live show that benefited The Maryland Food Bank at the Village Church in Hampden. Cameron Blake, E.Joseph & the Phantom Heart, and Caleb Stine & The Brakemen played. Eric and I had the opportunity to record that amazing night and had a great time in the process.
We had such a fun time mixing Caleb’s set we decided to put a few songs from the night up here.
Be on the lookout. The live record will be released July 23rd.

Last week, we hosted Austin Stahl for our monthly microshow. He brought new and moving interpretations from his latest solo record, The Things You Carry, and pulled some songs from the vault, including covers of Private Eleanor, Hank Williams, Small Sur and Bruce Springsteen. It was a warm and intimate night and so still as we held our breath listening to each heart-rending verse.
Jon Ehrens is a serial band inventor in the Robert Pollard mode. Just as the Guided By Voices frontman frequently comes up with aliases to release music under, sometimes fashioning unique musical identities and even elaborate fictional backstories, Ehrens constantly records under names like the Hypnic Jerks, Factoid of the Dustbowl, and Spittn’ Images, often just for one album or a few songs, before moving onto the next idea. One of his many solo recording projects, The Art Department, even became a live trio that gigs steadily around Baltimore.
