Hello All,

Hope everyone is keeping well and looking forward to some Halloween fun! We have just uploaded the latest video to our "Inside The Studio" Documentary on how the debut album is coming along. Click the link and have a gander.

We hope this is a good way to show the recording process and how things go in the studio. Maybe we might have a DVD of sorts with the album with scenes from the studio on it. Would that be a good idea?!

Peace&Love
TKO
