Cardboard sessions is pleased to announce Peter Yorn as the latest artist to showcase his talent on the cardboard instruments. Today, in the first part of a two-part episode, Pete presents “Really good love”, the second single from Pete’s latest album, The hard way. This is followed by “Calm down“ will be released next Wednesday, August 28th.

Yorn comments:

“Coming in and playing instruments I’ve never played before. And yes, they’re made of cardboard, but they have such a feeling. The song we did, ‘Real Good Love,’ just came about almost magically.”

It’s that feeling that makes Cardboard Sessions so special, and Pete’s episode is no exception. His music and this session are a vibe. It’s honest and organic and comes together, well, magically.

Pete is known for playing the majority of the instruments on his albums himself, and does the same for his Cardboard Session recording. He plays cardboard guitar, cardboard bass, cardboard drums, and cardboard keys. MichaelJacksonwho has worked with Pete in the past, acts as engineer and sits behind the keys during the session.

Yorn continues:

“Thank you for hosting these Cardboard Sessions and making them possible. I’m a musician and singer and they were awesome. Keep up the good work… they’re good and fun.”
