The Sessions

About Me

Probably The Best Live Music On MySpace!!


Pure Quality - Pure Quality - Pure Quality

The Sessions is a BluestrainFM project. A try to give as much support as possible to bands playing the blues and related music. By organising bi-monthly sessions, the bands will be able to get a high quality recording of the gig. Either for HiQ demo use or as a full Live CD, like the recently released Rhythm Bombs CD, Better Be Ready.
No expensive mobile studio needed, no hours of studio time, just bring your instruments, a complete backline is available. Just a session in the White Theatre will bring you what is needed to make a great and respectable cd. And the advantage of having the whole sesssion broadcasted on the net. But beware, we just don't take any band, there has to be a solid evidence that the band is up for a recording session. It all be putted on tape in one take! And we all know, shit in, means shit out. Therefor we DO select the requests for a Session.
BluestrainFM are a small group of volunteers, with unbelievable high standards and a very limited budget. Still we managed to get top bands from all over the globe to do a session with us. A great atmosphere, great audience, great food, good hospitality and a truly great recording facility makes that every band has been very happy to play a BluestrainFm Live Session. Not only do we broadcast the Sessions, we'll try to post recorded tracks of sessions we've done, every fortnight.
Since this page is still under construction, you can expect at lot more features in the near future. We might add a request corner and a database of all the songs done so far. Keep checking back often, this will become a unique site!
