Finished at Last!

The last six months we've been spending much, if not most, of our free time recording three songs, which we will release consecutively, in July, 2013, starting with "Tuesday Night".

Let me begin with a big "YAY!"  We were not sure at the beginning of this three song project how to go about it.  It was the first time Stephan and I recorded without our usual line up of musicians.  We opted, rather, to use some midi/plug-ins to fill in for a few players, (for those of you who are not recording savvy, we used a bit of technology) to keep our recording costs low.  The end result?  Better than we could have imagined! 

We really had a dream team working on these songs and much thanks goes out to Steve Avedis, our brilliant producer and engineer; Tom Capek, who is our midi and mastering genius (and "crazy good" at string and horn orchestration); Doug Wilmarth for his co-writing and incredible/magical guitar skills and Colorado Sound, for their generosity and wonderful staff...Thanks Tammy!              

I wish we would have tweeted and posted pics and thoughts as we were recording this project.  We had such fun!  I believe sharing this recording experience would have been entertaining!  Next time!
