Mock up of the cover for Rock & Roll to Hit, designed by Beckett Gladney

Sunday, I finished the last of the mixes for Scott Snyder’s Rock and Roll to Hit. Scott’s songs are smart, funny, and very well sung and performed. Many are about gaming, as you’d expect (if you know Scott), but he covers other subjects too – ranging from the tech industry, to comics to astronomy. I’ve got to say it was a pure pleasure to work with Scott on this. He’s a very skilled audio engineer himself, and I have to admit that going in I was a little worried we’d have too many cooks in the kitchen. As it turned out, we both had a blast, and our collaboration was super relaxed.

Many of my usual suspects played and sang on the album, including Mary Crowell on piano and Maya on backing vocals. Beckett Gladney designed the cover, which as you can see is beautifully designed and funny at the same time.

Scott plans to release this at Consonance the first full weekend in March.
