A few friends and I started The Arco Sessions a couple months ago. At its core it’s simply another in-studio video project, but we wanted it to be something more than that. Our composer, Davy Sumner, is creating unique arrangements for musicians who stop by to perform with young, student musicians, many of whom have never worked as a session musician in a studio before.
For us it’s more than the videos. It’s the experience we can give to everyone involved.
We’re coming to the last couple of days of our Kickstarter campaign, so if you think this idea is as cool as I do please help us out. Seriously. Do it for the children.
Missed the Kickstarter, but this is S. Carey performing “Leave” for The Arco Sessions. It’s killer.

OneRepublic - If I Lose Myself (Acoustic)
I remember loving OneRepublic’s first album when I was in high school. As mentioned in a few previous posts, if there are strings involved, I’m in. They released Native fairly recently and I decided to check it out. While I wasn’t the biggest fan of their second album, Waking Up, I couldn’t stop listening to Native.
The original version of If I Lose Myself has a healthy dose of extra synth in the background, which is something that I like. BUT I happen to like strings a lot more, so I picked the acoustic version. It has such great forward motion and I seriously can’t stop listening to it.
OneRepublic is from Colorado Springs, Colorado and they formed in 2002.
I hope you enjoy this as much as I do and have a great Saturday, everyone!
A fun acoustic jam from some of the decade’s biggest hitmakers.
Chloroform - Phoenix
I don't only think of you
Eyes can tell I'm insecure; chloroform
I would rather stand if you stay
Why would I lie to you?This song is such a jam.
Crushing to this right now.

One of my favorite songs from @DRH3. Really looking forward to the new record.
