well you're doing a performance today we're going to give you five tips for performing in a jazz recording session.

Good, because my band just got signed to a major label, and I'm going to have a lot of recording

sessions coming up.

That sounds good.

Yeah, I mean, that's not true.

Sounds false, too, because there is no major labels anymore.

But good luck with that.

Okay, recording sessions can be fun, and actually, all jokes aside, the beauty of the current times we live in is that, you know, it's more accessible, more affordable, and more available for anybody to do a recording session to make a full CD, you know, just to do some online tracks, put it up on, on, you know,

SoundCloud or whatever. There's so many different ways to get your music out there.

You can record, you know, with just a computer and a little keyboard. You, you know, a lot of

recording studios are more affordable than they've ever been. So, so it's something for us all

to be thinking about. It's a great thing to sort of plan for. You know, you prepare music, you know, be at standards, your own original recordings, kind of put together some documentation of where you are as an artist. But you got to know how to perform once you get into the recording session.

That's right. And, you know, whether you're recording on your laptop in your living room or at

Avatar or New York, some basic principles apply to either one about performing and about some

techniques that we're going to give you here to hopefully get your best on record. Great, great.
