“In Session” Making of The Rain Song [Video]

I released my version of Led Zeppelin’s “The Rain Song” and offered the recording as a FREE download.

The response was inspiring! All over the world came these lovely notes of appreciation for the track. They still come through now and again. Everyone seems to dig the reharmonization towards the end. It’s been really cool. There is even another video that Mike Conaty made the very first day of the song’s release here!

During one day of the recording sessions, I filmed some of the guitar and bass takes just to give a glimpse into the process. This was an overdub affair as I played everything on the tune except the drums which were beautifully performed by my first-call drummer Joe Shotwell.

I’ve also decided to make the song available via the Atmos Trio Store. As usual, the song can be streamed, embedded or downloaded at a “Pay What You Want (even nothing) price.

    Thanks Darin!

    So often the process of making music seems to be shrouded in mystery. I like to try to shed a little light on the subject.
