Dan Workman Brings "Old Time Hammer" To SugarHill
(HOUSTON, TEXAS) - July 11th, 2006 - Engineer/Producer Dan Workman has just finished production with blues/folk band Old Time Hammer at SugarHill Recording Studios with SugarHill Engineer, Steve Christensen as recording and mixing engineer.
Workman is renowned for his work with Destinys Child, ZZ Top and Lyle Lovett, in addition to owning and managing SugarHill Recording Studios. SugarHill is one of the oldest studios in the US and has been continuously operating for 65 years. Many legendary artists have recorded at SugarHill including The Big Bopper, Lightning Hopkins, George Jones and the 13th Floor Elevators.
With Old Time Hammer, Workman brings back some old school blues/folk music to SugarHill, where they recorded 13 songs to be released on their upcoming album Gulf Coast Train.
Band member Colin Sutherland described the sound they tried to achieve on the album; We were going for a sound that didnt seem overproduced or too raw; we also wanted a pure and good documentation of the music. Old Time Hammer consists of Colin Sutherland (5-string banjo, dobro, lead and backup vocals), Elise Southwick (guitar, national steel guitar, 5 string banjo and lead vocals), Jordan Johnson (Harmonica, washboard and backup vocals) and Scott Johnstone (Upright Bass).
The band plans to release the album on CD Baby as soon as its finalized.
