2nd album - 1st studio blog

Over the weekend Anna Phoenix entered Studio Lafo to start the trip towards the magic second album. Sister/producer Alexandra and engineer/producer Niklas were of course by her side, together with the young musicians showing up to do their thing.

Three full days of Anna Phoenix' originals, drums, bass, congas and some Rhodes. (As well as additional inspiration from albums like Moving Pictures with Rush, and the "splendid" "hit" "I'm so excited" that also made it into the spontaneous jam sessions that occured). We were excited to get the album going and although all projects seem heavy at times, this first weekend went pretty smoothly. We're gonna throw you some photos as evidence.

We started out with a quick practice so that the producers knew what was going on in the latest arrangements. From the left: Anna, Adam, Benjamin, Mika, Rasse, Set, Kimme, Jenny and Kim rocking the song "Skin on skin".

Niklas, drummer Rasse and engineer slave Axel, speedy as always!

Fast but precise, that's the engineering duo for you!

Jaws dropped by the awesomeness that took place.

Laying the line. Niklas at the controls, Jenny on the bass and Anna on supporting vocals and guitar.

Trying to stay on top of things...

No comments.

Guest star and bass god Mats Ödahl.

Anna is debuting as the Eggman. I'm telling you - no missing this album!

And a final "Until next time" from Kim Påfs, conga man.

We are sure our studio blog will mature over time. Or will it? Stay tuned!

In peace, love and laughter,

The Phoenix Crew.
