Update #37: Carl LeBlanc now on board to do vocals
Posted on March 1, 2010
Carl is one of the most versatile musicians in New Orleans, and he's played with everybody. He was in Stop Inc., who recorded the Mardi Gras favorite titled "Second Line" (the tune is actually a version of Joe Avery blues). At one time he left New Orleans for a bit to play with Run Ra. He calls Fats Domino to chit chat. In fact, Carl is the one who put me in contact with George Porter, Jr. several months ago when I needed bass on the record.
I spoke with Carl last night, and he's agreed to sing on Electronola. Here's a little taste of Carl singing and rocking out on his banjo:

I'm looking forward to hearing his voice on my music.

I sculpt data that scrambles electrons that excite magnets that move speakers that ripple the air that tickles your eardrum that tantalizes your brain that shakes your bum. Simply put, I'm a music producer and recording engineer. I do a lot of work with some of New Orleans' favorite acts, including Preservation Hall & the New Orleans Bingo! show.
Among the more famous artists I've recorded are Tom Waits, Pete Seeger, Del McCoury, Lenny Kravitz, Jim James, Paolo Nutini, Mos Def, and Buddy Miller. I've also done independent recordings for local greats like Shannon Powell, Tom McDermott, Luke Winslow-King, Meschiya Lake, & Kristin Diable.
In addition to my studio engineering, I produce and perform electronic music as The Madd Wikkid, and have been known to play piano/keyboards around New Orleans and Japan. I also sometimes tour as a live sound engineer.
