the james chamber- chemical girl

Back when we were on Astralwerks, we had a collaboration with the Chemical Brothers. They asked me, Becky and Fran to come up with some vocal ideas for one of their songs. As we came up with ideas, we sent them over to Tom Rowland in England. He would listen, then suggest alternative approaches. We did this for about 2 months. Eventually, they decided to use the song on their album as an instrumental. Here’s the vocal version that I thought worked best. Enjoy!

ps)Tom if you read this, don’t get mad. I tried to reach you but you’re email and number changed. Then Errol got fired.

the james chamber – coming up

We recorded this at our downtown rehearsal studio three years ago after our spring tour. I set up mics in about 10 minutes and off we went. This was a total improv. We never played this before or after as a group. Later, Q and I added some vocals. Mark:drums. Fran:bass. R.James:guitar,vocals, Nathan:keys. Q:vocals
