Lyric Video: https://youtu.be/fF8AYgmogms

Song: Can’t Quit The Blues by Kevin & JD (Blues rock from Canada)

From our latest album entitled Blues Truckin’. You can stream it everywhere.
We generally use all background instruments from BIAB:
- rhythm guitars, keys/piano, harp, strings, pedal steel, etc.
Usually swap out the drums (But now with BIAB drum stems, looking fwd to trying those).

All guitar solos by Kevin (left) & JD (right). Bass by Kevin, and vocals by JD.
Always mixed & mastered in Pro Tools by JD Oppen in Ontario, Canada www.thundersoundstudio.ca

We have been using BIAB ever since our 2nd album.
Will post more. Hope ya’s like it.

Cheers! JD

JD,
Nice power blues. Very good vocals and ace played solo parts. Drums are sound hot it places, but I guess that is how you wanted them. Clear mix & listens well. Thank you for sharing.

Misha.

Welcome to the forum and nice work indeed.
Top shelf blues for sure.
You guys more than did justice to this genre.

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.

Pro sounding all the way!
I love the blues and you all did it extremely well.
Super guitar chops from both.
Super bass and vocals.
Perfect backing tracks.
Loved it


My goal this weekend is to move just enough each day so that no one pokes me to see if I'm dead or not.

Hi guys, nice guitar work! I thought the intro was a little long before the vocals came in - though that gave more time to listen to those guitars. Sounded like you were having some fun here. I also thought the drums were a bit loud in places, but then I have a tendency to mix them too low on my stuff. Keep 'em comin'!

Thanks all, glad ya's like the tune. Yes, definitely was a blast playing & recording, and using BIAB to help write tunes. As to some of the comments, we do tend to have some longer intros & solo passages. We mostly record to play solos, LOL. As for drums sometimes being a bit dominant, yeah... I played & toured in a metal band for over a decade - some habits are hard to shake. My main band is also a much heavier blues band. So, I sometimes mix or master a little heavy. As well, I still mix & master hard rock & metal bands. It generally fits our blues-rock style, so it's usually on purpose... but I will admit the drums are a little busy in some spots & so they kinda pop out a bit. My drummer doesn't listen very well, hahaha.

I noticed this today. not sure why. Already reached out to a moderator to see if they can change my link because I can no longer edit this post. The video is still on YouTube HERE: https://youtu.be/fF8AYgmogms

Hopefully we get the original post fixed up. Thanks.
