Let me introduce you to Rachel. Rachel and me go b Let me introduce you to Rachel. Rachel and me go back a few years and ever since the day we met we’ve shared a beautiful connection and friendship. One of the first things we did when we started hanging out was sing and play songs together. Just for the fun of it. This, to this day, inspires me to sing more, which is something I didn’t always enjoy doing (not in public anyway).

For Rachel singing was something she used to do when growing up, but it got lost somewhere along the way and we found that doing this together sparked passion for it once again, for both of us. 

I thought it was time for us to record something the way we always did this together: While enjoying each other’s company and a glass of wine, in my living room.

So, here we go. We give you The Nearness of You, written in 1937 by Hoagy Carmichael with lyrics by Ned Washington.

I hope you enjoy this as much as we enjoyed playing it.

Vocals - Rachel van der Schaaf
Piano - Frank Montis

For the techies amongst us, I’m playing a Nord Electro 6D going (mono) into a Universal Audio Apollo 8 and Rachel sings through a Shure SM7b.

Video was recorded with an iPhone :).

One of my students mentioned that am becoming a wo One of my students mentioned that am becoming a world citizen as I have students at midnight now 🙈😆. Time zones for the win 😅. 

Anyway, I thought it would be a good time to mention that I am teaching on a Viscount Legend Soul 261 and I’m loving it. 

At first I had it connected to my 142 vintage Leslie. Now I use the internal sim and I have to say I’m pleasantly surprised even though I never leave home without my real Leslie. 

I’ll be making vids and demos after my vacation, which will last ‘till the end of August.
