Goodbye, Carbon

Super friends of Goodbye, Carbon, Helen Hunt and Matthew Carnahan, generously welcomed us and others to their home on L.A.’s Westside a week and change ago (3/19/12) for a Monday night release party of our eponymous debut CD.

Carla came to L.A. last week for two house parties marking the release of our debut CD (now available on Bandcamp.com). The first gathering — and first ever performance by GC — was a wild-child-friendly Sunday afternoon affair at Pete’s pad. The trio was joined by violinist Daphne Chen, whose beautiful playing also graces the [...]

Bob has mastered the records of so many musical luminaries we are humbled by his generosity in mastering our debut album. If you want to learn about a music pro at the top [...]
