So we have about two weeks until we get back into recording mode for the spring EP. Honestly, it’s quite amazing that we’re already working on our fourth release in a year. Despite the hectic schedule, it has been such a great experience as we’ve refined our writing and recording process. It’s been said before but we’ll reiterate here that spring promises to be a much funkier jammier season compared to our darker winter, aggressive fall and lighthearted summer.
There’s about 8 or so (maybe 10 at this point?) ideas that could potentially make our cut of 5. We did some work on a couple songs this week. The one below uses the working title “Periwinkle” which we learned is the color for stomach cancer awareness after we played a benefit last Sunday.
Nevermind that it says winterEP up there, it’s just the name of an account we used to share new edits quickly. So anyway, we may put up another one tomorrow or Wednesday but for now we want to remind you what Andres looks like whenever he jams.
As some of you knew, we recently played at Triumph Brewing Co. in Princeton, NJ. We thank everyone who came out and made it a successful night. The manager, staff and booker got such great feedback that we’re officially booked there starting in early August and about every other month that follows up until May 2013. It just so happens the the May show next year falls on the 3rd year anniversary of our very first show.
Coming up much sooner, we’ll be at the Pattenburg House in Asbury, NJ on April 1st. We’re going on at 3pm and it’s part of their new band showcase that is basically a tryout for their weekend slots. That particular area may be a hard nut for us to crack but we’re hoping to build a fanbase out that ways with other shows at places like Ol’ West BBQ in Annandale.
That’s all for now. More rough jams that make me feel naked to come.
