LONDON with Ulrich and Chapterhouse


Ryan:
As I continue to finish up some music with Ulrich on my journey to London I not only had the chance to meet Mark Peters of Engineers and watch Ulrich and him finish up a new album, but I also had a rare opportunity of meeting Stephen and and Andy of Chapterhouse over a drink at the pub. Such an amazing ride. Love being around such level headed, thoughtful musicians. The trip has been an outstanding time, despite the slight flu I picked up along the way...

london



Ryan:
Working on music in a land away from home is the way I love to make it happen. You never know what to expect, and everything just falls into place based upon the experience as a whole. I am about to embark on such a journey. To a place I have never been... and a place where I now have many friends... London. I'll finally have the chance to meet some big influences, that being Chapterhouse, and hopefully Mark Peters (engineers), and I'll be hanging the majority of the time with some outstandingly fun friends... Ulrich and Vinita. I have no real expectations, but I do know it is a journey I must take. 2010 has been a huge change for me on both a professional and personal level, and I do believe this trip will help even out the realities in my mind, while also sparking new ways of creating musical landscapes. I very much look forward to this...
