Recording for the Kenelis EP “Moving to Brighton” has started today with the one and only Chris Coulter (Arcane Roots) at the helm.
Ryan is laying down drums today in Guildford, then we head back to Brighton for the rest of the week to track Bass, Guitars and Vocals.
Full steam ahead! Tracks up soon!
April is a busy month for recording sessions…
Having already boshed one with the Ships boys, i’ve got the Kenelis EP recording booked in with Chris Coulter (Arcane Roots) and some cheeky J-Pop lined up for the same week.
The J-Pop sesh is with a load of wicked musicians including Macc Kano on bass, the drummer from The Kooks and the keys player from The Cure.
Lots of fresh sounds :)
Currently in the studio with Jumping Ships demoing some new material for the forthcoming album. Recording with the very lovely Tim Morris (Enter Shikari / Young Guns) and i have to say it’s sounding pretty meaty!!!
Looking forward to hearing the final mixes… will post them up soon.

Mel Sanson “Kenelis” hits number 11 in the charts with “The L Project”!
On Feb. 11th 2012, The L Project released their charity single, “It Does Get Better”, with the aim of raising as much money as possible to help combat LGBT bullying. The L Project is a collection of the UK’s most talented lesbian performers, who gave up their time for free, coming together because of how passionately they believe in the cause.
