WHAT’S ON

LUSH STUDIOS 1

The past couple of weeks up in Brisbane at Lush Studios have been a busy period. Producer Kevin (The Caveman) Shirley dropped in to produce Jimmy Barnes and his band, with guest drummer Jason Bonham (son of the late John Bonham of Led Zeppelin). Bonham paid the studio drum room a special compliment, saying it had great bottom end and how it reminded him of the drum sound on Led Zeppelin 1 and 2!

Meanwhile Grammy-winning producer John Hudson (ex-Mayfair studios, London) has been back in the studio producing and mixing some new tracks for the talented Barbadian singer/songwriter, Alexander Mills. On the mixes, John used a pair of Pultec EQP 1A3 EQs and a Neve 33609C across the stereo bus and found a lot of love for Lush’s pair of Neve 2254Es on drums. To quote John, ‘Bloody good!’
