New Recording in Texas w The Moeller Brothers
Donation protected
Life sometimes gives one opportunities right out of the blue and it's our job to recognize it and act upon it. Or not. This recording is an example of stringing together that which has been given to me as a gift. Opportunities presented themselves and I jumped! That's just me
The first portion of this recording is complete. I went to Austin mid September and recorded for 2 days with my friends Johnny (guitar) and Jason (drums) Moeller and Drew Allain (bass) in a great studio called Alnico. I can't say enough wonderful things about the studio and the gentleman who owns it, Nico. Felt so at home there, efficient, cozy, great vibes and great results!
Next will be the job of recording the vocal tracks, the keyboards (Bruce Bears) and some harmonica (Hash Brown). And then the whole delicious soup will have to be mixed and mastered.
Following that whole recording process will be a cover artwork concept, manufacturing, PR and radio promotions.
It's a lot of work, it's a big job. But it's not my first time doing it so I don't see it as insurmountable. It's a very exciting project and one that I welcome with my entire being! Because this is what artists do... We create art! No matter the odds
After completion, the recording will be released symbolically under Dallas Blues Society Records and dedicated to our friend, the late Chuck Nevitt.
I am preselling the recording in an effort to generate capital so as to complete it. Many people have contributed by sending an e-transfer or PayPal to [email redacted] ❤️ Others have contributed to this GoFundMe campaign, all of which has enabled me cover some of the costs of the initial stages of the recording. I'm so grateful and I'm further enlisting my soldiers to assist me in completing this recording, hopefully sometime in 2025. If you have an interest in pre-purchasing or contributing to the recording, here's the breakdown of rewards for your generosity and support:
First level of $25 will get you a copy of the recording, be it digital or physical.
At the $100 level you get the recording, plus a thank you in the liner notes.
At the $500 level you get the recording, a co-producer credit in the liner notes.
And at the $3,000 level I will assemble an all-star band and perform a concert for you and your friends! Geographical restraints may apply.
It's my great honour to be able to do this and I thank you all so much in advance for your friendship and love of music. Blues fans and my friends are the best!
