Ep. 103 - Kevin Tabisz

It takes a lot to go Uphill in Chicago, but this week’s guest has it all figured out. This episode the Gearbuds welcome our newest buddy Kevin Tabisz to the squad, a Chicago-based musician, studio-owner at Uphill Recording Services, and all around good dude. We get into his history, becoming a true gear nerd, acquiring celebrity owned vintage Gibsons, growing up with The Fireside as your dad, hanging up on Steve Albini phonecalls, carrying a Neotek console into an attic, and even some positive lockdown takeaways. Also discussed: Phoebe Bridgers turning bad into good, Metro Chicago selling an NFT, updated Craigslist drama, Talkbox talk, getting to work with Sonarworks and Earthworks (thanks Stinger), Izzy Stradlin, and trolling for strange. Play the drums (not the cymbals) and **** open hi-hats.
