Follow on Google News | North Carolina Dentist Makes An Album With Legendary Rock Stars Using InternetUsing the latest in technology and social networking with Myspace, Facebook, and Twitter, Dr. Mark Lassiter makes a Pop Rock record with band members of Collective Soul, Foo Fighters, The Wallflowers, Blind Melon, The Posies and others.
By: Sandrock Productions Mark and the nearly 30 world-class musicians on Living Past, believe that the scope of the project from an independent musician in a rural town is unprecedented. Each of the 12 songs is played on by a combination of different musicians creating what is essentially 12 "e-garagebands." During the initial recording, Foo Fighters and original The Wallflowers keyboardist Rami Jaffee sent Mark an email that the Grammy Museum producers wanted to do a video about him and his life as a session player. He emailed Mark that he would play to Mark's song Living Past during that video. Mark was able to fly out to L.A. and watch the video, over 2000 miles away, that featured his song and voice in a video about the worlds best session players and producers. "It was one of the most exciting moments of my life!", Mark says. Mark wrote nine of the twelve songs and produced the entire album from his dental office during lunch hour and at home in rural Norwood, North Carolina. The album is scheduled for release in July 2009 and will be available on CD Baby as well as all major digital download outlets such as iTunes and Napster. # # # About: Sandrock Production is an independent music production company with the goal of utilizing world-class musicians to create and ultimately distribute music in the Rock and Pop genre..
