Recording drums for Laura Kidd

I had the absolute pleasure of playing the drums for Bristol-based songwriter Laura Kidd (Penfriend) earlier this year.


'Seventeen' is taken from Laura's new album, "Exotic Monsters". You can pre-order here.

Here's what Laura had to say about using my remote recording service for her album:

“I've just worked on my first (of many, I hope!) projects with Max, and found him to be friendly and amenable throughout the process. I wasn't sure how easy it would be to communicate stylistic preferences / adjustments / etc working in this way but it was really easy and Max couldn't have been more helpful, plus the drumming and recording quality is top notch. BONUS - I didn't have to help anyone drag their kit into a studio :D”


Thanks for having me, Laura!

I recently had the pleasure of recording drums on Chris Manning's latest album, "Reach The Sky" . Chris and I go back many years, having worked on multiple projects together. Chris is a Dallas-based guitarist, songwriter, and session player, and his new album features some heavy-weights, such as vocalist and co-writer Cris Hodges (Grey Daze, In The End). The album also features a stellar lineup of guest artists, including legendary guitarist Bruce Kulick (KISS, Grand Funk) on "Fly Over The Walls" as well as Hungarian-born blues guitarist Tommy Katona on the instrumental "Texas Smoke". Bruce Kulick also served as the album's creative consultant. Thanks for having me, Chris!
