Abby Lyons is a recent graduate from the music school and she is currently attending CalArts. This year, her song, “Send Me Off To Sea,” was selected out of 120 entries to be recorded for the CalArts Jazz CD 2015 at Capitol Records. She had the privilege to record with four other CalArts musicians in Studio A, where artists such as The Beatles, The Beach Boys, and Foo Fighters have recorded! Amazingly enough, John Mayer was down the hall recording in Studio B right before their recording session. The final recording of the song can be heard here: https://soundcloud.com/abby-lyons/09-send-me-off-to-sea. And here is the link to the complete CalArts Jazz CD 2015: http://jazzarchive.calarts.edu/album/2015. Capitol Records generously records the entire album (12 groups) every year entirely free for CalArts. The entire history of the Jazz CD can be found here:http://jazzarchive.calarts.edu/history.
