Rob Ickes, one of the few Dobro masters and Blue Coast artist extraordinare, brought Cookie Marenco to Nashville to record the debut project for his label, Resorevolution Records. The recording features Rob on Dobro, Michael Alvey (piano) and RobinElla (on vocals). The music was played live in the studio and will have a unique 'jazz/country/swing' to it.
Rob chose Wildwood Recording in Franklin, Tennessee to capture the performances being one of the few studios that has 2" tape, a great sounding grand piano and wonderful acoustics in the room. Cookie brought her arsenal of proprietary silver cable and Rob's 'special' mics to the session. She was assisted by facility owner, Brendan Harkin, a well known engineer/producer/musician in his own right.
Cookie will return to OTR with the tapes en route for mixing and high res files for backup. The album should be completed and available later this year. We're all looking forward to some sneak peeks of this recording!
