The Late Greats

So I decided more people should read this. In order for that to happen though, perhaps we should write more frequently. So this is my pre-new-year's resolution.

Jake Moran, our drummer which is no longer categorized as "new", has proven to be the best decision we've ever made. He's worked out wonderfully as far as learning the oldies and what we've written since his presence, is very exciting. I thought it would be a good time to let everyone in on our album/EP plans. We have 8 songs that we consider "old." They are:

Adios
Broad Street
Fisticuffs
Dirty Mouth
Insolvent
The King and I
The Cause
Taken

Then we have our "new" songs:

My Engine
Bonnie Parker
Jack Knife
country song
piano song
new song #1

So the last three don't have names, in case you can't tell. Now, we have battled and battled with different "studios" and recording persons and have come to the conclusion that unless someone wants to record us for free, we're taking this project into our own hands. Miraculously, we've done some sample recordings on Garage Band (Apple's standard FREE recording app that also happens to be the world's BEST app. Free or paid fo') and it sounds BETTER than our $25 - $50 per hour recordings. Infuriating. So we're going to start with a new 3-song demo and include the following songs:

Adios
My Engine
Fisticuffs

These songs will be re-recorded and re-mastered 100% by us in our practice space. They will have a much more live feel to them and will better represent how we really sound. What we'd like to do is record those first 8 songs and put them on an EP and release it on iTunes, etc. and then work on a full length album that will include the new songs and some of the old ones.
