The Band!
Posted by Lloyd Y. Asato | Filed under Poetics of Peet's

A year ago over the cup of coffee that appears above I wrote the following:
I am at my happiest sitting in a coffee shop solving problems with the coolest people I can find. And that in the past years I have sat in many coffee shops and encountered the coolest of cools. And together we created and completed a couple of wow projects. And I want more.
I miss the band.
I miss the energy of the studio as we lay down tracks and improvise and create. I miss mixing in new rhythms and genres and mashing old school and being surprised and giddy. I miss going on tour. I miss the end of a successful tour.
So here we are and The Coffee Sessions are born. There is an idea unfolding in my head of 50,000 monkeys laying tracks. It is a wacky idea and it is an incomplete idea. A studio where we can come together to talk and create - then plan and do. The Reverend Cleophus James is preaching and I am beginning to see the light.
The Band!
So, who’s in?
I wonder if it is the affect July has on me or something else. Been thinking about the band again…
