The first time I ever performed in front of an audience was a high school production called "Rock & Roll Revival" in Severna Park, Maryland. I was hearing a bit of a buzz about the 2023 show so I decided to check it out. The backing band was on point, they were tackling some challenging tunes & I remember thinking "wow, this is much cooler than the revival I was a part of". Then, Nick Stohler jumped down from the band riser & took center stage with his strat. Nick launched into the iconic opening riff of The Pixies' "Where is my Mind" & then proceeded to melt the room. When the song came to a close, Nick threw his pick into the crowd and sternly marched off stage as if to say "I don't have time for this shit". This dude is awesome. After the show, I found Nick in the lobby & told him how much I enjoyed the cover. I gave him a 3EGC sticker & offered up the invitation to do a recording. He handed me an "Ivy League" sticker & said "This is my band" (which also happened to be the backing band for RNRR). I was living in Annapolis at the time & we decided to record their original banger "Roseland Ballroom" in my living room. The energy building this studio track was very collaborative every step of the way. Keep your eye on Ivy League.

Recorded & mixed by Aaron Yealdhall at 3 Eyed Ghost Cat with help from Ivy League.

i was looking for you on my tv 
but got up when i noticed scratches on the screen 
and cant help but think of what your doing to me 
are you meaning to change the scene? 
are you meaning to do this to me 

i was looking for you in the cushions 
do you want me acting crazy like this 
is it that hard to reply to my message 
history only repeats if you forget it 
but it’s subconscious, i can do this again

once i find something more 
or something that’ll make this house warm
into the night my limbs are sore 
can’t remember when this bed didn’t feel like cardboard 
i will always love the way 
your mouth shapes my name 
but you’ve been saying it with shame
i’ve been wondering as of late 
is this silence or is this space ? 
and are these growing pains 

i was looking for someone to fine peace in
you were looking for someone to hate the world with 
so i’m sorry i didn’t quite make your list 
some things are given to us just to be missed 
you’re meant to be missed 

once i find something more 
or something that makes this house warm
into the night my limbs are sore 
can’t remember when this bed didn’t feel like cardboard 
i will always love the way 
your mouth shapes my name 
but you’ve been saying it with shame
i’ve been wondering as of late 
is this silence or is this space ? 
and are these growing pains 

when i hear about what you’ve been up to 
it’s through the mouths of those i refuse to give my time to 
so what? we’ve changed as people tend to do 
missing you will always be my greatest virtue 
but loving you will always end with solitude

When an artist slugs me right in the kisser I will ask them if i can capture a field recording of a live performance. The artist gets a free mixed single & 3EGC artists are encouraged to pool resources & lift each other up. 
Some songs end up getting developed in post production with additional tracking and some fine tuned mixing. All songs captured and produced by Aaron Yealdhall.
