We finished mixing the Live in Almería record!
And this time it was a little more complicated, because we had some recording errors to overcome.
We had little time to build up, And the stage was still packed with the owner's gear.
With no storage left available, we puzzled til we got it right.
We had all our gear but last minute we decided to give some of his drums a chance, live that sounded fine, but the recordings told a different story.
The place also had bad ground so that resulted in lots of annoying loud ground noise on all tracks. And it caused us to be shocked every time we touched the vocal mic with our lips.
All in all, lots of bumps on the road and a complicated mix procedure later, I think we made the most of what we had!!!!
But, Jozz wouldn't be himself if he didn't turn all of this upside down and made the gig sound better than ever! Amazing results show that he has truly become both a great mixer and producer!
So, have a listen for yourself, of our 2023 Almería Live & Loud gig!
Enjoy!!!
Cheers, Nina & Jozz

Blues Weiser here with another update!
In a previous post we stated that Jozz was busy mixing the last live album we recorded on the 1st of September in Almería... He is still working on this and it is going to sound awesome!
He also started working on the Universe is Rigged album, starting with the track "Beggers Can't Be Choosers". He recorded all of the vocals and is almost finished mixing the first track! So we're very excited and looking forward to this!
Then some sad news: After a break of nearly 6 months, due to Mike's operation on his knee last november, we sat together and had to conclude that the three of us are not looking in the same direction and we don't want the same thing in the end...
So, we will be looking for a new drummer.
We decided that Jozz will be doing all the drums on the new songs.
Cheers, Nina
I started updating our "Bandsintown"
For those of you that don't know: Bandsintown.com is a website where you, as a band, can enter the where & when of your gigs. Another one for example is Songkick. Songkick also shows your gigs at your Spotify and Bandcamp pages, however they don't allow you to fill in "Past gigs" so to say.
Because Bandsintown let's you add gigs in the past we decided to use Bandsintown on our website for both upcoming and past gigs overview. This way our fans can see where we play, but also where we've played (and let us know they were there!)
In the past year I have allready added a lot of 'lost gigs' to the Bandsintown website for the years 2016 and 2017, but now I have come across approximately 30 gigs for 2014 and an equal number of gigs for 2015. Both years have never been added to Bandsintown so this is what I am doing this weekend😅
So now it is time to fill in all the dates of 'before 2016' to our Bandsintown
Wanna be updated when we have a show?
Go to our Bandsintown and click follow as shown in the example above.

Thanks to k.w. custom cabs I have a bad ass new cabinet for a lot of LOWWWWW
Well, after mixing and releasing the Live & Unplugged Calpe album, the Live & Loud Gandía AND Calpe albums, Jozz is now working hard mixing the last live album we recorded on the 1st of September in Almería.
He also started working on the Universe is Rigged album, recorded in 2018 but got postponed because we wanted to write a new album with our new drummer Michael. He is recording the vocals and mixing the first track "Beggers Can't Be Choosers" so we will keep you updated!
Jozz uploaded the Live in Gandía album on Spotify, for all of you to hear, check it out here:

Hey there,
Nina here with an update!
We have decided to bring this Blogpost page up to date with the latest news!
There has been A LOT happening in the past years, since there hasn't been a new post after the deal we signed with Sunrock Bookings in 2019...
Due to all Social Media changes, there's information 'lost' everywhere, and we decided to bring it all together in one spot and fill in the gaps with information that's never been posted before!
While we are also gonna keep you posted of what we are doing right now.
So, I am mainly busy with organizing and archiving or in other words, combining all the information of our Facebook & Instagram accounts with the 2(!) blogposts pages we had... Jozz is going through his archives.
Together we will be able to add all information, photo's and video's from the old times, so yeah keep on checking for updates!
We will also post any new happenings on this blogpost and make it active again!
Jozz recorded more guitars and I've put keyboards on How've Ya Been and Jozz is mixing it all together.
While Jozz is busy mixing, I have been working on the documentary video for the first song of this new song.
Jozz has also been working on some artwork:
We will keep you posted!
Cheers, Nina
