Wayne Krantz, renowned jazz guitarist (Donald Fagen, the Brecker Bros, Steely Dana), was in Dubway’s live room cutting tracks for his new album with compatriots Owen Biddle (The Roots), Nate Wood, and Henry Hey.

Mexican film/TV star, and Warner Bros. recording artist Ximena and songwriter Alex Wong were featured on an Episode of Dubway Days, wherein the artists meet at the studio with the aim to write, record, and produce a song from scratch – in a single day! With a film crew on hand, the entire process is documented, and it’s always startling how great a song can pop out of these spontaneous conditions. "Here We Are" is no exception.
Another Dubway Days production – this time featuring Kaleta and his 13 member band, Zozo Afrobeat, live. Inspired by Fela Kuti’s Nigerian music from the ‘70s and ‘80’s, the song that sprang out of this session’s cowrite with Ben Arthur, "O Be So," grooves unbelievably! The video documentation of the session is due out in April.
