Recording at Busted Barn

This musical fellow, Pete Morse, is a bit of a miracle worker behind the mixing console.

As the producer and engineer of the new recording project, he's been wildly successful at keeping my primitively circular mind in check. What was supposed to be a two week project has stretched on, though happily so.

The rough mixes are in, but it's already clear that it wouldn't be what it is without his talents.

Check out his studio, Busted Barn, for more info.

And Now You Know...

I'm happy you're here. Thank you. If you want to say hello or send us a tweet, I'll explain everything.

Here is the latest on the upcoming CD:

Recording starts on Aug 12th at Busted Barn in Portland, Maine. It will feature 10 or 11 new songs.
Cover art is by the wonderful French photographer, Christophe Garnier.
The disc will be available sometime in 2011 on iTunes and retail CD. No plans for vinyl yet...though I have been asked. Indie stores will have it available as a special order item. Not sure about other online music outlets.
The songs were all written but the recording with feature collaborations with several other artists to be named. It's very impromptu and the roughness of the first disc will be carried over.
There will be two new videos out for the first singles. The dates for these aren't finalized yet.
Two release shows are scheduled. Looking at possibly Boston and NYc. Other dates and cities may be pending (sorry, this is not as useful info as I'd hoped). There are plans for a European tour last 2011.
The title of the CD is still up in the air. Again with the vagueness. Oh well...

Thanks for listening. I'll have some practical info soon.

And Here We Go.

It's been a long time since I've had to turn to a studio for help. I like the late-night, guerrilla recording method for most of my stuff. Not this record though.

There were too many people and too many instruments to consider. On top of this, the mastering guru Mark seems to have vanished inside a film project. I can hear him but the sound is rather faint.

So where am I going to record this disc? I have no idea but I hope to have it lined up for next month. 🙂

New Record Details

Record #2 in July?

That's my goal. Maybe August. I'm hunting for studio space at the moment. The details are draped in fog, but there will be ten tracks or so and guest appearances by people that we trust and love. Other than a few shows in September, I no useful live information yet.

This will not be a happy CD. I'm sorry to those who wished for a breath of lovely air after the first trip to Floor 6. More soon and thanks to everyone for listening. 🙂
