The next JHS pedal is gonna be the preamp from a Mackie 1604

"Congress shall make no law ... abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press..."

A Hispanic man from Everett won Love Island and I just heard the Tavares version of "More Than A Woman" on the radio. Massachusetts stays winning.

This whole thing really puts a hammer to the whole "women are too emotional to be president" thing, huh?

I'm a huge Celtics fan now. Nobody is more surprised than me I've watched every Celtics game this season, writes WBUR senior producer Amanda Beland. I don’t walk away from my friends when things get tough and my fandom isn’t conditional either.

A beautiful piece of writing on fandom by @amandabeland.bsky.social, filtered through the lens of this unique and challenging moment we @celticsnba.bsky.social fans are experiencing

A Chicago-native pope will likely be very similar to all other popes, but with celery salt

Not sure America is ever coming back from this

Lakers in 5 (derogatory)

Bass #reamp, killer sounds thru the old standby Shop B15. Not all the stuff is vintage all the time, though, proven by stellar fuzz sounds from this DOD Carcosa, and the Vanguard Audio V4 FET condenser, far and away my favorite newer microphone on the scene. #soulshop

My favorite part of walking home from the Shop at 3AM is running into my wabbit neighbors. This time it was a special moment between these two lovebirds, an obvious analogue to myself and @amandabeland.bsky.social. (I won't post the video of the flirt-jumping, cause that's between the two of them.)

Still grooving high on last weekend's live performance by @ryanleecrosby.bsky.social here at the Soul Shop. RLC is currently on his "Boston to Bentonia" tour, please check his itinerary and catch him along the way if you can. Absolutely transcendent.

A newer member of the stable of weirdo #solidstate amps at the Soul Shop, this 1960s Standel Studio XII has been working hard lately as a #reamp machine. It may not have the rep of the tube models, but it's incredibly valuable as tonal seasoning on tracks ranging from pedal steel to accordion.

100 Years Ago Recording Studios Got a New Tool: Microphones On Feb. 25, 1925, Art Gillham’s session made history. The technology changed who was heard in recordings, how artists approach their music and how we hear it.

Imagine the universe where this didn't happen. Fools would instead be on messgeboards debating the quality of Behringer acoustical horns.

Feels impossible to feign normalcy and post about music lately, but fortunately this song is the perfect response to this moment in America in 2025

Arranged & produced by me & the band, recorded & mixed by me at the Soul Shop

Lots of green in that Smoothie

My midlife crisis is gonna be buying all of those amp-in-box pedals they just announced

For my track, "You & I," off the new Soul Shop Xmas album, I took a steal from Dan Fogelberg and ended the story with my reharm of "Auld Lang Syne." Use this chart for your New Year's Eve gig, or rewrite it yourself, it's folk music after all.

The real surprise here is finding out that Shazam is still a thing.
