We recorded seven new Gayland numbers last night at Marigny Recording Studios. The session went well; thanks to singers Lesley DeMartin, Cameron-Mitchell Ware, Jason Amos, and Ivan Griffin, with pianist Albinas Prizgintas.
In this pic, Cameron-Mitchell Ware brings to life the ever-slippery Gaige, while Scott King covers Zack, and Albinas Prizgintas tickles the ivories.
As we’ve developed Gayland 2.0, we have added many new songs, including the sweet “Life Is A Tiny Flicker” and the cool and sophisticated, “I Wanna See Your Cum Face.”
There will be a new audio recording of of the entire Gayland score this weekend at the lovely Esplanade Studios in New Orleans, where John Legend, Eric Clapton, Willie Nelson and many others have laid down tracks.
Session no. 1…..Sat., March 7, 12-4 p.m.
Session no. 2…..Sun., March 8, 1-5 p.m.

Marigny Opera House in New Orleans, the venue for the Gayland premiere in 2013, was the scene yesterday for the wedding of Beyonce Knowles’ sister Solange. Beyonce and Jay-Z were in attendance. Must be the stardust surrounding Gayland that brings out the Beautiful People. ; )
