After a scary moment that landed everyone's favorite standup drummer in the hospital, we are extremely happy and thankful to have our best mate back in the studio with us. During Moder's "imprisonment" the three Brians tinkered around the studio with various instruments, amplifiers, bullhorns and beers, but things just weren't the same without the engine. He's back and making friends with the piano (we've hidden the drums from him for just a little bit longer). We feel sorry for that poor drum kit when they get reacquainted.
So the writing rolls on with remote recording in various parts of the city and in the studio with video crew in-tow. The entire writing and recording of this release is being filmed for a "making of..." film to accompany the cd release. There will be much more on the progression of things in the coming months so please stay tuned. We're hoping to have it all done early next year. For a sneak preview, we are working hard to have a few new songs for the mini-tour in September.
Beat Kitchen on Sat, Aug 16
For our Chicago-area friends, join us at Beat Kitchen as we perform a stripped down, trio set to open for our friends The Saps.
Moder will sit this one out.
