Jason McGerr of DCFC
Today IQ’s Kip Beelman and Michael Berlin rolled on up to North Seattle and paid a visit to old friend and client Jason McGerr, drummer for Death Cab for Cutie. Jason has a new studio of his own now called Two Sticks Recording that features a Pro Tools HD3 rig, Chris Walla’s Studer A-800, the old Quad 8 Ventura from John & Stu’s Place/Hall of Justice Recording and more outboard mic pre-amps than you can shake a stick at… Or two sticks for that matter. Also available are Jason’s 12 drum kits, 26 snares, couple hundred cymbals, guitar amps, piano and vintage organs.
Jason has played with numerous bands over the years, taught drums at the Seattle Drum School and seems to have found a happy place providing the beat of his own drum for Death Cab. It had been a while since Kip added his engineering prowess to “Soul Meets Body” for Death Cab’s latest and almost platinum record Plans, so they had a lot of catching up to do. Perhaps a little Jason McGerr on the next IQ Production library release?
