We have some news on the making of our record! First of all, we have an official release date, it's Sept 28th, 2010!
Not too long ago we started "mastering" with John Bailey. Which started with a bunch of listening, and then "Hey, do you think we can bring in some room mics to play with against the mixes", then one thing led to another and all of the sudden we were remixing the whole thing! Although this was a fairly stressful move due to the extremely tight deadlines we are on to get this to our label, it was definitely the right move because we are all really enjoying how it is turning out. We have our last mix tweak day this wednesday, then we are sending it off to be master with a fantastic engineer named George Seara (very excited to be working with George again - he actually helped us out a bit on our EP).
Now, the good news is that doing all of this will improve the record as a whole, the bad news is that it does push back our schedule just a little bit, and with WAMBO in Wallaceburg (my home town) coming up in less than two weeks we are all scrambling to get it together. However, I can't guarantee anything at this point, but I do have a plan which will put CD in hand for WAMBO. Everyone keep your fingers crossed for us - trust me, we'll doing everything we can (even if it means packing cases on the way there!).
All of this is very exciting! What a crazy couple of months and the few to come are looking equally as fun! Can't wait to show everyone!!
