David Gogo on his new album YEAH!:
I have recorded many albums, worked with many talented people, and had a lot of fun, but this album is my favourite to date.
I decided to leave my comfort zone and head to Ontario to work and stay at The Ganaraska Recording Co., surrounded by powdery snow and vintage guitars. In fact, I only used my guitar on one track, the rest belonged to the studio. I asked producer Steve Marriner to assemble a group of musicians for the project and he chose well. It’s difficult to soar like an eagle when you are messing around with turkeys and I always surround myself with the best talent possible. This group, comprised of Steve Marriner, Jimmy Bowskill and Gary Craig, was a pleasure to create with — top-notch performers and super cool to hang with.
I feel that the new songs are very strong and there was such a great vibe in the studio. Though it was a relaxed and supportive environment, we worked at a quick rate and utilized plenty of first or second takes to keep the live energy happening!
