SANDY MCKNIGHT & FERNANDO PERDOMO – SAN FERNANDO BLITZ
After last January’s release of their successful first collaboration, Albany-area artist Sandy McKnight and Los Angeles’ ubiquitous multi-instrumentalist/producer Fernando Perdomo have released their latest work “San Fernando Blitz.” Sandy McKnight joined Big Blend Radio to discuss the project. Listen to his interview here in the YouTube player or download the podcast on Podbean or SoundCloud.
McKnight has been an in-demand bassist since the 70s, and has worked with many notables as a musician and producer. His large catalog of self-penned songs can be heard regularly on TV and in films. Perdomo has become one of the top session players and producers on the west coast. He’s been called the ‘Todd Rundgren of L.A.’, and was featured with Jacob Dylan in the recent documentary ‘Echo in the Canyon’, now playing on Netflix.
The new EP by the team features 6 power pop killers, with the first single being the dancy-hooky “Living on the Westside.” This new set highlights Perdomo on guitar, drums and keys. McKnight plays bass and sings leads and harmonies on all 6 tracks. Recording took place at Reseda Ranch Studio in L.A., and Systems Two in NYC. The EP is available for download on Bandcamp, and streaming on Spotify, YouTube, and Soundcloud. More: https://sandymcknight.bandcamp.com/album/san-fernando-blitz
