In Association with Trans & Oh Yeah

This summer, Belfast based singer/songwriter Tom McShane & producer Rocky O’Reilly (Start Together Studio) throw open the doors and invite fans to witness first hand and take part in the creation of Tom’s next record. Fear not though; this will not be the repetitive and laboured process of endless over-dubs and recording trickery. This instead will be a dynamic and exciting live performance modelled on old school recording techniques of the ’50s & ’60s.

Two open-studio recording sessions will be held on July 3rd. During each of these sessions the album will be performed in its entirety with each song being performed only once per session. The best take of each song will be selected for the final cut of the record.

The recording will be facilitated by the Oh Yeah Music Centre, the creative hub at the heart of Belfast’s Cathedral Quarter. Recording will take place across various rooms with Oh Yeah’s main exhibition/performance space becoming an extension of the Start Together studio space, also based in the Oh Yeah building.

Tickets for this event are strictly limited. The ticket price not only admits fans to one of the recording sessions for this special one-off event but also includes a pre-order of the finished album which will be mailed to them as soon as the album has been mixed, mastered and pressed. Each ticket holder will be credited in the liner notes and receive special individual copy that will display their name.

Become part of the discussion that shapes the development of this record by joining Tom’s mailing list to have your say in everything from album art to the album’s title and receive demo versions of the album’s tracks as pre-production progresses.
