It looks like before we even get our hands on the 4th Simple Plan studio album, we might have some new tunes from Sebastien Lefebvre’s solo project. Sebastien said so in the lasted post on his official website, in which he talks about his new demos that he has already recorded:
New music… Maybe… Soon???
As you all know, i’ve been writing. My first EP came out in October of ‘09 and just a few months ago I released a few song with my friend @KatieRoxMusic. I feel like it’s time for some new Seb stuff before the SP machine starts going 2875246524 Km/h. If you agree, message me!
Sebastien posted a new blog on his official website, in which he talks about how he’s currently getting ready for playing all the new Simple Plan songs live. Make sure to check out this quite interesting blog right here:
Pierre once said that there’s nothing to talk about really when everyday seems the same. Well, let me tell you what that is, for me at least.
We were writing and then recording for such a while, that i’ve never really played the new songs all the way through that many times. So, these days, i’ve been listening to the songs a lot, and trying to figure out how i’m gonna play my parts live. So basically, i turn on the stereo real loud, and jam in front of it with my guitar. It’s actually kind of funny to watch, but i do enjoy this.
I want to get to a point where they all become automatic, like every single other SP song because we’ve played them so many times.
We’ll get all together very soon, actually as soon as everyone has done the same thing. Chuck is also rehearsing real hard. He recorded drums first, so it’s been even longer for him without playing the songs.
That is all! Hope you are as excited as i am to see us out there!
Sebastien has decided that 140 character is not enough for him to express himself, so he decided it would be worth a try to start blogging again – this time around on his official website SebastienLefebvre.ca. Here is his today’s post, in which he wishes you all all the best in the upcoming year :)
The passing of this year into next
Well, here we are again. The time of year when we decide what’s gonna happen next year. Next year, i’ll be more this way, and try to think about bla bla bla… I want to think about all the awesome things that happened this year instead.
Wrote songs, recorded them, released them, have some fun on the radio, planned the next SP record, done with that… To name a few.
2010 was the best year i’ve had in a really long time. And even if i don’t know all of you, i’m glad you guys were there to share it with me. And i’m glad that, through the magic of the internet, i got a change to share some of the thing you guys did this year.
Still, i hope all yall had a great year, and i hope that next year will be even better!
Few months ago, Sebastien’s and Patrick’s radio show – Man Of The Hour has moved from Idobi Radio, where it had spent many years, to Virgin Radio Montreal. Ever since the show has started there, lots has changed – the show wasn’t like it used to be – it aired only once a week (with no re-runs) – and most importantly, there were no podcasts of the aired episodes available on iTunes (apparently because of unsuccessful negotiations with managements of those artists, who’s songs were played in the episodes, so that they would be available in a free-downloadable podcast).
Today, Sebastien announced via his MySpace that Man Of The Hour Hour is leaving Virgin Radio Montreal:
MOTH
Sorry to say that Pat and I have left Virgin Radio in Montreal.
We’ll keep you posted on the future of the show very soon kids! In the mean time, how about you let them know if you enjoyed the show while it was on. I’m sure they’d like to hear it.
Even though MySpace is not the most used social network anymore, for band members it’s still useful, when they need to express themselves in more than 140 characters (the limit for one message on Twitter). Sebastien decided to write something longer today, so he went to the good old MySpace, where he left us a new blog. Check it out:
A few days away
I had a longer rant to write… Sometimes 140 characters is just not enough.
We are just a few days away from bed tracks tracking. Chuck got done with his drums and we will start the rest next Monday, after the show in Levis QC. I’m not gonna lie to you, we’ve been writing for a little while now and we felt like the studio was gonna be next month, 6 months ago. But it’s here, we’ve started, and Jeff, David, Pierre and I are up next. Chuck killed it in Vancouver. That where the producer is from and he really wanted to do drums at his studio.
Anyhoo, i can tell you that now that we will all be together, there will be a lot more Vlog filmed by Seb and edited by Pierre. I have this nifty little camera… Not DVD quality, but pretty awesome. Remember that China Vlog? Yeah!
So, take care and keep on checking Twitter for fun facts.
Sebastien posted a new blog on his MySpace page explaining what’s currently going on in the guys’ lives, how is the new record going and what is Sebastien up to in the next couple of days. Check it out:
Some news from the north.
So, i guess what are wandering right about now what the hell we are doing these days. Well, the boys and i are still writing for the next SP record.
Fear not, studio time is soon on the horizon, and that will be filled with song clips and entertaining vlogs and possibly mlogs when we actually learn the songs. Like with every record, we try to bring you the best of the best, hence writing always takes a bit longer than we originally think. We are still missing a couple more songs to turn this into the record we will feel you will love.
SO WE KEEP AT IT! Hard work will pay off we think.
Also, there might be some new Seb song coming before all that. I’ve had time to finish a few here on my own, so stay tuned for that also.
This is where we are at. Now back to my muffins and hardware store!
