There's been a change in scenery this week as we have decided to stay local and record violin and vocals with our good friends at Southern Ground Studios just outside of Atlanta.
Tom drove up on Friday and has settled into living out of a hotel. He has also found and bought all Left Hand Milk Stout Nitro in the surrounding area. As a side note, congratulations to Tom Drummond and Better Than Ezra for their new record deal and upcoming album and tour. Article in the Hollywood Reporter here. Tour dates on Better Than Ezra's website here.
Richard has been putting in seriously long days tracking violin. The good news is that he has wrapped up his parts. The bad news is that he is completely strung out from three 12+ hour days and nobody has heard from him since... Our guess is he has gone into hibernation and will reappear as soon as the album is released. But that is only a theory.
Shawn has been steadily knocking out vocal tracks during the day today while Colin and Steve will come in this afternoon to start putting the final touches on the tracks with vocal harmonies. Things couldn't be sounding better. We've still got a little ways to go before we can share what we've been working on, but trust us... It's going to be awesome.
