My Son Is An Infernal Hostage

My son, Wesley, is the bass player in a band called Infernal Hostage. Wes and his band mates are each 11 years old and are already far better at their age than I was when I first started at 18! Other members of the band are Jonathan Brown (guitar, vocals) and Quinten Oppong (drums).

I recorded the guys in my home studio using my ProTools Digi 001 and Apple Garageband. This is pretty much a live performance. We did overdubs on the guitars and the backing vocals. They didn’t play to a click track (Quinten has a great sense of time), and they did it in only a couple of takes. All in all – I was very impressed with their performance and effort.

Look out for these kids – they may be on MTV before you know it.
