Introducing Weekends With Dan

Weekends with Barty

My new band "Weekends With Dan" began recording the "Big Sexy Single" at Big Blue Meenie studio in Jersey City today. The tracks "Anna Rexia" and "Sexual Harassment" are being recorded over the next few days, with a tentative mix date next week. At least three more songs will follow next month. The lineup features me, under the alias "Big Sexy" on guitars, "Dan Damage" on vocals, Jeff McManus of Pist.on (Atlantic Records) on drums and Jim Frint on bass. The genre of the project is somewhere between pop and punk. The sound quality is expected to be superior to all of my prior recorded music projects, as artists such as INXS, Pet Shop Boys, Jodeci, Guy and Queen Latifah, Helmet and Rage Against the Machine have all recorded or mixed albums in this studio. Tim Gilles who works regularly with Island and Virgin Records will be mixing some of the tracks.
