Between The Buried and Me Vocalist, Producer To Host Free Creativelive.com “Studio Pass” Course Next Week
Workshop streams live for free December 8-9
Tommy Rogers, vocalist/keyboardist for progressive metal band Between the Buried and Me, and producer Jamie King will host a free, two-day CreativeLive “Studio Pass” workshop next week on Monday, December 8 and Tuesday, December 9 from 9 a.m. – 4 p.m. PST (12 p.m. – 7 p.m. EST). In the class, Rogers and King will share their signature approach to production ~ how things should run in a studio to get a final track that sounds like the band on its best day without coming off as over-produced. Viewers will also get a behind-the-scenes look as Rogers and King track drums, bass, vocals and guitar for a song from Rogers’s latest solo album, Modern Noise. Head over to CreativeLive ‘Music & Audio’ for more information and to enroll for free today.
