Dietrich Strause Continues To Build His Songwriting Puzzles & Brings Some Tunes To Life At Great North Sound Society

“It's a puzzle; the shapes of the puzzle keep changing based on my interests in the music that I like at a certain time. You sort of put it together, right? You feel like, okay, I've got that puzzle together. Then, a week later, the shapes change,” said Dietrich.

While viewing the behind the scenes of Dietrich's recording session at Great North Sound Society, which you may have seen in the preview video of this series, it was amazing to see the dynamic between Sam and Dietrich. They carefully listened to the instrumentals and voice build into a magical tune. The voice and individual instruments were recorded one at a time, in separate rooms. The process seems so fluid and just came naturally to both of them. I was excited to have Great North Sound be my first recording studio experience because it is like no other.

Dietrich started to play music at a very young age starting with the piano. In elementary school, he was given a trumpet and immediately got really into it and play all the way up until high school, even going to music school for trumpet performance after high school. He noticed that playing the trumpet can be very lonely and you have to be really, really good.
