Here's a track  called Oh Yeah! from my album "Rooms" available worldwide from all digital stores including iTunes and Amazon.

The visuals are a montage of rehearsal footage, shot and edited by visual artist Paul Hooker. He also does some great mixed media portraits - check out his website http://pwhooker.co.uk/

That's my friends Justin Bikram on bass, and Simone Freddi on drums, who are in my live band. The weird Tele I am playing is a mid eighties Bill Lawrence guitar with an L-500 humbucker in the bridge, and a stacked single coil sized humbucker in the neck. It even has a vintage Strat style bridge! The 5 way selector is wired like this: 1) bridge humbucker 2) bridge humbucker + neck 3) neck 4) bridge split coil + neck 5) Bridge split coil

I used an altered tuning on my guitar (a 1989 Fender Japan Tele with Seymour Duncan stacked humbucker pickups) for this song - basically DADGAD, but tuned 2 semitones down CGCFGC. I learned about altered tunings from Joni Mitchell, and 2 of the greatest alternative rock bands Soundgarden and King's X, both huge influences... And both those bands were huge Beatles fans like me! You can hear that Beatles-esque guitar tone in the Middle 8 from 1:47 where as the twangy clean guitar tone in the bridges is pure Ty Tabor ... The bass was a Fender Jazz Deluxe tuned CGCF, and recorded direct through an Ibanez Phat Hed bass distortion pedal, into Sansamp Bass Driver DI. Recorded and mixed in Pro Tools LE.
