All Genres > Rock > Emo > GARAGELAND: Scorpio Righting

NOTES ON "SCORPIO RIGHTING" BY SINGER-SONGWRITER JEREMY EADE:

Scorpio Righting was recorded over an eight-month period at a semi-outdoor roofless studio overlooking the beautiful black sands of Kare Kare Beach in New Zealand (the beach made famous in the Oscar-winning movie The Piano). You can literally feel the sun on the fingers of the guitar players and the sand between our toes. The studio hadn't been used by a band since Crowded House recorded their 1993 Together Alone album. The resident beach population took time to get their heads around the fact that Garageland was slowly crafting a beautiful, big old-fashioned rock 'n roll album in their backyard.

The recording process was laid back, but at times strangely chaotic. One morning at 4am, the locals were shocked to see the band and producer unwind long black cords down to the beach to record guitars and vocals. The idea was to capture beach air in the acoustics, but the recording ended abruptly when the tide came in!

The idea to leave the city was inspired by The Last Waltz, the Martin Scorsese film about the last performance of The Band. We watched it every night on tour and fell in love with the whole 'go to the country and record whatever feels right' vibe. After watching the film, the band would play Bob Dylan, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell and Crosby, Stills and Nash songs on acoustic guitars until dawn. Scorpio Righting is us exploring other sides of our record collection. Sometimes it's good to turn your back on established tired ways and return to something a bit more pure and honest. This is a pure album; the lyrics, melodies and singing are my best yet. I want to write music for true music lovers!
