The London Lucumi Choir Recording Sessions

Howard preparing to enter the live room!

What a mad bank holiday weekend it has been; whilst most people were spending time relaxing and enjoying the weather with family & friends, about 16 members of The London Lucumi Choir headed to the frozen north to a hot and airless recording studio (well the live room was anyway), located well away from any meaningful civilisation to embark on a mission.

As per-the-norm with recording sessions, time, space and relativity can be greatly disturbed by the silliest of things leaving people hanging around for ages – a good opportunity to get out the camera methinks!!!

All in all, it was a good weekend and not just because of the recording, we all shared an experience that I feel has brought us close together as individuals and there was not one ego issue which given the number of people, is something to be commended.
