The first time I saw Penn State University's Blue in the FACE in text form, I didn't understand why they were yelling FACE at me. Then their music director Mel explained the musical staff reference, and we decided to keep making loud noises together. I love the spirit of this group, and it shines brightly on their first professional EP. Check it out! Recorded by Bri Holland, edited/mixed by The Vocal Company.

I had a total ball producing #FOURTY4B's "Bang Bang" in Irvine, CA with Ted Trembsinki. These kids are a true band of brothers and sisters, and I'm very much looking forward to the music they make next.
