BURN OUT Sessions: "The Boy in Me"

This first session is a chance for me to get familiar with the new set-up and software. I imagine the sound quality will improve as I suss out the features. You’ll hear a couple of errors as I get used to everything. I’ll link to a single mp3 file from the public folder in my DropBox account.

I hope you like it. More to come…
