What's New
  • Tri-Fi is Making a New CD

    We're going into the studio on July 11th, 2010 and we need your help! We're taking pre-orders now through a Kickstarter project. We're doing this recording ourselves. It's a self-produced, self-funded project, and that usually means cutting back on living expenses until we sell enough CDs to pay off a few bills. No extra pepperoni on our pizza. Bud Light instead of Brooklyn Lager. Walking home in the rain instead of taking a taxi or a bus. You get the picture...

    Kickstarter Website

    We discoverd Kickstarter, a really cool project funding website that asks fans to pledge to support all kinds of projects. In our case, we're looking to pre-sell enough CDs to meet our recording budget of $6,000. We're not begging, we're just asking folks who like our music to pledge that yes, they will buy our CD. As a thank-you we've set up a bunch of other cool incentives you can take advantage of. It's easier if you just go to the website and check it out.

    Here's the catch - if we don't make our goal of $6,000 by July 10th, we get nothing! That's not far away, so time is of the essence! We hope you'll sign up for your copy of the new CD today. Here's the link - please feel free to share it with your friends! http://bit.ly/new-tri-fi-cd

pirastro strings AMT microphones Analysis-Plus Cables Pirastro Strings
I've used Obligatos on all of the recordings I'm on up until 2007. Recently I've made the switch to their Evah Pirazzi set, and I've recently switched to their new "Ultra Sensitive" electric bass strings. I also use Olivs on the G, D, and A strings of my back up bass (which has never sounded better).

AMT Bass Mic
A great acoustic bass mic that goes with me everywhere.

Nordstrand Basses
I have a beautiful custom made SC6 6 string that has, among other things, a chambered alder body. I can't say enough about how well this bass is made and how great it sounds.

Analysis-Plus Cables
There are cables, then there is Analysis-Plus. You will not believe what a difference their cable will make.
