Marlou Koevoets, 'AGRO Sessions' Saturday May 4th 2013.
Marlou Koevoets (Stolwijk/Gouda), In Session.
Recorded: May 4th 2013, former ‘AGRO Studio.
Tracks: Coulda, Woulda, Shoulda (TK 1-5)/Silent Home (TK 1-2)/Safety Zone.
Note: asked to help out on recording demo-less acts for the new ‘Huiskamer van de Stad’ livingroom-festival, I got the keys to the deserted studio, once the heart of Gouda’s local service radio station for the hospital and elderly homes in town. Since they ceased to exist, but needed to sell the studio, it was convenient to use the studio occasionally, to keep it in working order. The second session was with Marlou Koevoets, member of the festival organization, co-supervising the sessions that day. As one of ‘her’ guitarists doubled in ‘Op Visite’, she invited her bassplayer to come as well, for a small scale acoustic set. Since Marlou has a much stronger voice, it became apparent that the studiomikes had too much pickup-leaking, so we not only switched some mikes, but moved Marlou to the hall, where she could sing without disturbance. The session was a wrap then within the hour.

First session was with acoustic cover-threesome ‘Op Visite’, who laid down this great session with covers of songs by Fairground Attraction, Sting and The Cranberries. Having soime time left, they were invited to have a one shot take, in which they produced a very vivid and great cover version of this already classic LMFAO track.
