In this episode of the Tortoise & The Hare Experience, we’re talking with Jeff Buehner from The Loyal Order!!!
The Loyal Order first hatched as a studio project several years ago when Jeff Buehner was approached to write a theme song for a regional outdoor hunting reality show. After consulting with guitarist Brandon Cook for a heavy riff, the result was a song called Off the Grid (Superhuman). It aired regionally in the Pacific NW for two seasons.
A bass player by trade, singing is a new beginning for Jeff. The songs were originally written with a different singer in mind, but after laying scratch tracks for the first few songs, the producer convinced him to lay the final tracks himself.
From this songwriting partnership between Buehner and Cook, the songs began to flow. Originally, the recordings were produced and engineered by Kevin Hahn at Opal Studios in Portland. Off the Grid, Colorblind, and I Fall Silent. And most recently with Rob Daiker; The River, Sabachthani, Tears From Kelly, Half Life, and Ready for Dead.
Now that a solid core or songs have been tracked, our eyes are on live performance and touring, but not before everything is finished in the studio and the momentum continues to build.
