Sometimes a pat on the back feels good…

My partners and I at BoomBoom Percussion have really strived to be as knowledgeable and helpful when selling our products. We are thrilled to hook the right musician up with the right instrument. It gives us joy to know our customers are happy. When you are selling an instrument, it is not just about the sale. It’s about the connection and joy that the end consumer will have with their new addition. With this in mind, the sharing of knowledge and really trying to ensure satisfaction, makes us just as happy if not happier  than the consumer when we get it right.

Below is an email from a BoomBoom Percussion costumer.  I wanted to share…

Absolute tops, very best transaction ever, wonderfully helpful seller. I got the drum stands and they are real heavy duty, provide minimum point of contact on Conga for fullest resonance and allow me to tilt drums just right for playing; they are a quality piece of equipment! You were incredibly helpful in

every way and, if I could send a thousand people your way I would.

Good luck with your music career and a big hug,

Mark

Playing with Eddie K

So I’ve been playing a few shows with Eddie K of LIVE.  Yes the very Eddie K.  I am pleased to report that after three shows on the west coast – Seattle, Portland, and LA, we seem to be on our way.  Eddie is a sweet, lovely human being, and it is a joy to play music and hang with him.  He turned me on to Fran’s chocolates in Seattle, and since then I have learned that he has a serious sweet tooth.  Here is some footage of us at the Nokia Theater in LA.  I’m rocking my Meinl cajon, and the sound in the theater was really great.  Eddie and I are both recording new records right now.  He starts his in Austin in just a few days.  I started mine with Tim Acres last weekend in LA.  I fly to Austin to record with Eddie on his record in a few weeks.  I look forward to creating with him.  I’ll keep you posted.  Good times!

 

 

Rock On!

Jen Lowe Gets a Great Write Up In The Hartford Courant

JEN LOWE
From The End Of This Hallway
El Pooch

More often that not, singer-songwriters’ inspirations flourish from their relationships and life experiences. Such is the case on “From the End of This Hallway,” Jen Lowe’s solo debut.

A recent transplant to Connecticut from Atlanta, the drummer/percussionist adds acoustic guitar and sings in a sultry and sinewy alto. Her vocal delivery has a delicate yet sturdy girl-next-door-quality, sometimes pristine and sometimes edgy. She sings saccharine sweet acoustic-pop melodies that are upbeat and cheerful, an elegant veil for the more somber lyrical content.

Lowe, who’s toured internationally with pop rockers Jason Mraz and Tristan Prettyman, writes about the identifiable highs and lows of relationships. CD opener “Waitress Song” is a free-spirited jaunt that finds her on the open road experiencing newfound freedom. The lilting harmony vocals and gently plucked guitar on “Coming to Get You” masks the realization that a relationship probably isn’t meant to be. In contrast, the brooding ballad “Tragedy” is every bit as dark as its title suggests, with the singer and her subject separated spiritually and literally in stormy times.

Essential download: “Waitress Song”

Jen Lowe performs Thursday at Black-eyed Sally’s in Hartford. Information: 860-278-7427.

Jen Lowe released her first solo record on Tuesday July 8th.  It was a huge success here in Atlanta.  The show consisted of the Vagabonds, Butterfly Stitch, Hedwig and the Angry Inch, and History of Rock and Roll.  The room was packed as Jen and her friends celebrated a journey through music and rejoiced in the Atlanta creative community.  

The stage was set so that all the musicians sat on Meinl Cajons.  Jen’s new song “Trigger” ends in a well  choreographed Cajon break down.  The sound was superb.
