on my way

Hola, boys and girls!

I’m so excited to report that the album is almost finished. I met with Rhandy Simmons of Siesta Ranch Studios a few days ago to start the mastering process. We’re still doing overdubs and other little fixes on all the songs, but they are really starting to come together. I’m so ready to put this album out there and into your hands. It’s been a really tough process. I decided that I wanted to do most of the work on this album myself. I wrote/co-wrote all the songs with Sir Mateus. I played the drums and bass in addition to doing the vocals. (Thank God I had some help from Sir Mateus on the guitars. He’s a way better guitar player than I am.) I did all the engineering and mixing myself. It has really been a huge undertaking and I’m really glad to see it getting closer to the finish line. I really didn’t expect recording this album to take as long as it has. Professional musicians are so blessed, because their job is going to the studio and performing. Maybe one day I can say the same.

I have a lot of things planned for the new year. I can’t wait! I hope everyone had a great holiday. Here’s to a blessed 2012! Keep rockin, my friends. :)

Peace out!
