David Lackey
The "band" at this point is essentially me. In spite of no formal training and the fact that I do not read music, every note is written and all parts are arranged by none other than yours truly. Currently I am also the only one at the controls duing production handeling my own recording, mixing and mastering as well as being the only one I can get to run errands for me so I guess Im my own gopher too.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Its been a while since I have played live but I do love it. Maybe when all of the tracks are done, it would be nice to get some people together and try 'em live.
Your musical influences
The influences could go on forever. I am really influenced by everything I hear but some stand outs are Peter Gabriel, Charlie Parker, Melissa Etheridge, Rob Thomas and Matchbox 20, Metallica, Aviatic and Concrete Blonde.
What equipment do you use?
I write everything on a variety of guitars and then transpose into Finale for additional scoring. I have a intense love of Gibson and PRS Guitars, Crate and Marshall Amps , and every piece of Mackie equipment that I can get my hands on. All Production and mixing is being done in Tracktion.
Anything else?
