We’re almost finished mixing, and Paul and I nearly strangled each other today…mixing is FUN!  🙂  Actually, it’s a potent “mix” of emotions, moving things around, nitpicking, opinion-jousting, and crying together.  (We’re very in touch with our feminine side).  A few more songs to do but we should be mastering on Tuesday of this next […]

We’re finished recording – phew!  15 songs in the can.  I was very surprised and relieved to see how well (and quickly) “Whisper” got taken care of.  I had a scary feeling that that particular song would take nearly all day in the studio.  But after (3) emotional takes, I redid it with the lights […]

Got 7 songs done vocally – 8 to go!  I’m excited.  Friday was a pretty productive session.  This week will see me hopefully finalizing all vocals on Monday night, and then we’ll have some additional musicians coming in mid-week to record some parts for “Embrace” (which is turning out absolutely gorgeous!) and then if I […]

Unbelievable: that’s the word I would use to describe these incredible musicians I get to work with.  I don’t know what I did to deserve to work with such awesome musicianship but Marc Miller (bass), Carl Martin (drums) and Jeff Brumley (bass) and of course Paul Racey (guitars) are such a thrill to work with.  […]

Got a band rehearsal tonight with several of the key players to hammer out some arrangements and structuring on a few songs…then this next week we’re going into the studio!  I can’t believe we’re finally here!  I start recording vocals this next Thursday the 8th…can’t wait.  As of today, 49 days until CD Release…67 days […]

Incredible session today!  We really overhauled three of the songs with some killer effects and gave them a lot more “life.”  I’m truly excited and blessed to be able to have this material produced…it’s cleansing, therapeutic, and powerful.  Praise be to God! We’re 2 weeks away from studio recording, 57 days away from CD Release, […]

Paul got together with Marc Miller, an extremely accomplished bass player, and recorded parts for the songs that he’s playing on, and they sound great.  We’re getting together tomorrow to re-record a demo for “Snow”, and talk over all things administrative of course, and continue to line up everybody for the studio recording and concert.  Getting […]
