Larry Hibbit run us through the veteran Brit-rockers’ new album,
‘Glorious Sunset’
At this point,
Hundred Reasons count as legitimate scene legends. Back with their brand new album 'Glorious Sunset', we got Larry Hibbit to tell us a few things about it we absolutely
have to know.
→ We weren’t all in the same room, or even all in the same country, at any point during the making of the album
The album was made at the tail end of COVID, and with Andy Bews (drums) living in California, we had no choice but to record the drums remotely. The drums were recorded at a studio called The Ship in LA. We rigged up a system using a price of software called Audio Movers which allowed me to listen to Andy’s drums and also talk to him using the talk back button in my studio. It worked surprisingly well, and actually, a lot of the time just felt like he was in the next room.
Then the other two guys came to my studio in Brixton, and I finished the rest there. We finally all met up for a rehearsal in January of this year; it was the first time we’d all been together in the same room since 2012!
→ We wrote very quickly and dumped nearly as many song ideas as made the record
