https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqQlzB4eSzo Not really a video, just audio on youtube with the lyrics. We were rehearsing a new song called 'Chelsea's in love' and the bass player liked his part on the middle 8 so much he suggested we wrote a song around it. So we started jamming around the middle 8...

https://soundcloud.com/rya66/californiasunshine Here's my band's first new song of '22. As always, I used my Rick 330 for the recording. It's a basic 2 guitar, bass, and drums backing with 3 vocal tracks overdubbed. A simple recording and a simple song using just 2 chords. I hope you like it. Thanks...

We don't have a lot of gear to make these kind of recordings so they are a bit rough. Three mics on the drums, one on my AC30, I think the bass was DI'd, the vocals certainly were. Playing my Ric 330. I got a few more of these recordings, but the videos are a bit dull as it's just the same fixed 3 c...

Hi, thanks for the feedback, it's much appreciated. I'm glad you like the recording. When bands are allowed to play again we hope to include it in our set. The idea for the song came because I always do my washing on a Wednesday - perhaps I should create a more profound and deeper meaning! Anyway, i...

https://youtu.be/53KAYY8aqeY Here's the latest one from my band, as usual all the guitar parts were recorded using my Rick 330. A very straightforward recording using drums, bass guitar, 2 guitars, and 3 vocal tracks. Nice to have been a little productive over the Easter holidays! I hope you enjoy ...

https://soundcloud.com/rya66/whys-she-with-him-2810a-demo Tried something a bit different with this one. It's a one chord song written around the bass line. I've never written a one chord song before either so that's something new for me. Got myself another 330 (this one's a fireglow) since the last...

https://soundcloud.com/rya66/what-will-the-children-live Obviously no gigs these days, but we still get together to rehearse once a week. This a live recording made a while ago at a band rehearsal. The rehearsal room is very small, so small in fact that the PA speakers don't fit in the same room, so...

https://youtu.be/TyUBBQOMPEU Here's the latest song and video from my band Rya. As always, the guitar on the recording is my Rick 330. A very simple song (only 2 chords) and recording that is comprised of one guitar, bass, drums, and two vocal tracks. We enjoy playing this one. I never like making v...

Happy New Year everyone. Here's a video I've made for a new song. A simple 3 chord song with no chorus, it was inspired by a documentary I watched of the same name. As always I used my Rick 330 on the recording.
Hope you enjoy it.

Made this video about 3 years ago after the band's trip to Hamburg. Hope you enjoy it.

Since I've been encouraged to keep posting here I thought I'd share one that I recorded a few months ago. I've always loved reggae music so from time to time I'll try and write something in that genre. On all my recordings I use my Rick 330, but with this one I have a small confession. During the re...

Stuart please send more. This tune is nicely done. I especially like 1:25 to 1:50. It fits with my less is more philosophy these days. Nonetheless a solid effort. Thanks for sharing. :) Thanks for the feedback Peter. I've always believed less is more, and when writing for a 3-piece band there is no...

Hi, thanks for listening and for your encouraging feedback.

'Alfie' was recorded using much the same set up as my previous recordings. It's one guitar, bass, drums, organ, and 2 vocals. As always, the guitar used is my Rick 330. I like to write short songs and if I can write a song that has the traditional structure of verse, chorus, middle 8, and still come...

Did this one just before Christmas. It's just bass, guitar (my Rick 330), drums, one lead vocal, one backing vocal. I used a lot of drive on the bass, it was very distorted. As with all my recordings for a long time, the Rick goes through a Leeds pedal and then a little spring reverb is added. I don...
