Chapter 17

Lyric

* * *

My eyes are closed, head bowed down, chest pressed against the edge of the mixer. My fingers aren’t moving yet. I want them to play through this song without any adjustments from me. Once I hear the song, the one that they insisted on adding to the album that’s about seventy percent produced, I’ll have a better idea what we need to do for it.

“It’s rough, Lyric.” That’s what Harry, the lead vocalist had said when he introduced it. We don’t have time for rough. We’ve been working on this album for nearly five months. Five. Typically, it doesn’t take that long. Typically, I get a band to finish recording in closer to two or three, and then it takes me another month or so to finish it up and get it out.

But these guys like to change shit. A lot. They’ve already scrapped two songs—two songs that were fully recorded—and replaced them with two others that needed a ton of work. Now this new song. Oh, and Harry has to take ‘quiet time’ to write and meditate or whatever the fuck he does, for like two hours a day.

I’m starting to understand why they had creative differences with their last producer. I feel like maybe I should have called him first to talk about what happened, because Cyber’s Law is very talented, but they’re also making this newbie very stressed out. Especially when Robert continues to remind me about the December first release date he has in mind. It’s freaking September. It’s so ambitious I can’t even think about it without wanting to vomit.

But they caught me on a good day. On a day where I’m probably willing to say yes to anything. That’s how happy and excited I am. Jameson is scheduled to land at ten-thirty p.m. LA time. I cannot freaking wait. It’s been so long since I’ve seen him. So. Goddamn. Long. And really, these last five months apart have been awful. So much worse than last summer.

My hours are a million times worse and I didn’t even know that was possible. Because while Harry takes his ‘mental kip’ as he calls it, I’ve been working with another artist on her solo album. She’s young. Seventeen. And has never made a solo album—she was part of some teenage girl group before branching out on her own. Her parents are great and very supportive, but this girl needs a lot of handholding.

So there’s that. That’s my baggage and it’s extensive. I won’t even lie and say it’s not.

Jameson’s baggage is not that different from mine. He works psychotic hours. His business with Cane and Travers is going well. They’re getting some clients and starting to get some cash flow coming in. But he’s also become a player in his dad’s financial company. I think his father is grooming him to take over. At least, that’s the impression Jameson has, even if his father hasn’t said as much. So that makes two full-time jobs for him.
