Studio renovation timelapse highlight reel from the last couple weeks:
1. Grinding down some gnarly parts of the floors
2. 1 million hours of vacuuming concrete dust
3. New control room wall install with @justincordua
4. There’s a secret message hidden inside of this wall 🤫
5. Other side of The Wall with my brother-in-law Mitch
6. Caulking around the drum riser
7. Missed a spot
Making some progress over here! More soon
After many years of making records in garages and basements and cabins and closets, I am very excited to announce that I am opening an honest to god recording studio in San Diego! I’m very excited! We have a lot of work to do and a lot to learn, but I can’t wait to get this place up and running. Follow along for updates and shoot me all of your worst studio name ideas

My wife @kasey.dotson finished her degree today! Going back to school full time as an adult is no joke, and she did it while also working full time, starting her own jewelry company and SO much else. AND she made the dean’s list!! Ridiculous! This woman inspires the shit out of me! Congrats Kasey I love you! ❤️
Hard post of me and my bros living laughing and loving to honor the new record we’ve inflicted upon the world today. @thefrights sixth (!!) record! Hard to believe it! Pls give it a listen and we’ll see you on tour this fall/winter. Special thanks to @christian.m.cummings and @novisplit for their mystical powers over all things audio and @ricky.the.band for the photo
