We don&#8217;t always agree on that,\u00a0 but stick with us, we&#8217;re getting there.<\/p>\n<p>You see,\u00a0 as a rockabilly band, we tend to go by the credo, &#8220;less is more.&#8221; That doesn&#8217;t stop Mimi from doing harmonies, Tom from throwing in some flourishes on the guitar, and Wyatt from filling some swing beats in the groove. Recording, however&#8230;. recording is different. Recording is where you put a polished version of yourself. The notes are clear, the rhythm doesn&#8217;t vary, the bass is exactly where it needs to be.<\/p>\n<p>That and Mimi wrote a song on ukulele and we have to leave it like that!<\/p>\n<p>Okay, now you know that one of the songs is a ukulele track. Let&#8217;s have some fun with it! We&#8217;re also adding rhythm guitar tracks to most of the songs and some percussion as needed. We are so excited about these songs and cannot WAIT to share them with you.<\/p>\n<p>Leave your guesses for what the ukulele song is about and closest answer gets a sticker.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As most musicians can attest, adding more depth to a song by adding background vocals, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4,19,5],"tags":[11,20,21,12],"class_list":["post-170","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-music","category-ukulele","category-updates","tag-full-band","tag-recording","tag-rockabilly","tag-rum-syndicate"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/rumsyndicate.live\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/170","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/rumsyndicate.live\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/rumsyndicate.live\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rumsyndicate.live\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rumsyndicate.live\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=170"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/rumsyndicate.live\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/170\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":172,"href":"https:\/\/rumsyndicate.live\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/170\/revisions\/172"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/rumsyndicate.live\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=170"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rumsyndicate.live\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=170"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/rumsyndicate.live\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=170"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
