My Cahon and I have a live gig
Richard Adams Nigel Gavin
Last Friday night Julie and I traveled to Kerikeri to meet up with Nigel Gavin and Richard Adams for a performance at the Marsden Estate Winery.
Nigel and Richard opened the evening with a couple of ethereal pieces before inviting me to sit in with them (literally) on my cajon.
We blended well, very quickly, with the cajon directly plugged into the PA system.
Plenty of bass, very little midrange and a tiny bit of treble gave us a very commanding drum sound in the mix. The AKG mike does the business again.
I had a blast, the audience did too!
