The Penny Jam – Recording The Ascetic Junkies

The Ascetic Junkies performing “Gone Shooting” @ St. Johns Bridge

The Ascetic Junkies were a pleasure to work with even in the rain, wind, and snow as we found ourselves that grey day. Clem made the decision to use one microphone (Matt’s Groves Tube Omni Condensor) as it paid off. The band has a style all its own and I wouldn’t be suprised to see them find sucess in Portland elsewhere.
