Lay It Down: A Jam with Jakob

 It was another accomplished evening with the overly talented gents at Portland.Field.Recordings.. Working with these cats is a cherry! A honey-sweet damn-near professional, do it yourself studio, with all the toys and tweaks any weathered musician could ever want. The former Hoyt Street Studios and their founding members Jake Worley, Jakob Vankiersbilck, and Kevin Nothing make up part of the revolutionary, revisited like (Tom Waits on Stacks Records meets The Kinks as Midwesterners) rock-blues group The Vernons, they can be found off NE 56th and Hoyt.


   We began our eve with a puff and a cider, and re stumbled upon a prototype sample chop from the ever classic Ronnie Foster. Grooving for-sure as the inspiration billows. A notecard later and its lyrics through the microphone.. then the melody is found and the building becomes cohesive. Jakob the Other rides the beat so smooth its blended like cake-batter..sweet! Here's a new one!
