Main Site  And MySpace Page Changes,  New Release Planned!
A lot of news:

First, we're  in the process of updating the main site , bringing it in line with some of the social networking and music apps we have. It will take some time to integrate it through all the sections of the site, but I'm making progress.

One of the main things that's happening is the consolidation of an email list, which until now has been done manually; I'll be sending out a final manual email to folks we've contacted in the past, but if you're a my space friend, PLEASE sign up on the Reverb Nation email list widget on our my space page


This is all ramping up to, finally, a projected release this fall. With the 'Travel Bug' CD release over 5 years old and not very representative at all of our current focus, it's high time to offer some definitive, well-recorded performances in a cohesive presentation.

There's a lot of great moments on the rehearsal tracks we've uploaded, to be sure. I've always had an 'open source' philosophy, to document and share the process as it goes along, so while the cuts you're hearing now may be representative, what more, what best is possible? Discovering and ultimately sharing that is a big part of what we're doing over the next few months (we don't want to shy away from live work either as we hone it).

Tentative plans are to record during August, select and edit in September, mastering/graphics/production in Sept/October, official release some time early November. We'll be doing a primarily digital only release with comprehensive distribution, with a very limited number of actual physical CDs.

Stay tuned, watch our Twitter for little daily updates, and sign up on our list....
