Update #1 · Dec 30, 2011 · comment

Hey everyone!  Sorry it has been so quiet for a while, so many things have been going on!  A friend of mine from CalArts, Andrew Silagy, has been mixing furiously, and he's doing an incredible job.  I've been really getting stoked.  

I've also gotten a few free pictures from the wonderful photographer Gene Marcus, another CalArts grad from the 70's, who saw us at a show in June and wanted to take pictures.  

Finally, my longtime good friend from my early days in Baltimore Jennifer Sowinski, is doing the design for the CD cover.  

You can hear what will probably be the first track, Raga Shivrajani.  Raga Shivranjani is a romantic late night raga, and this composition is by the North Indian Dhrupad masters the Gundecha Brothers, the only cover on the album.  I hope you will like it, i think it is great music and Andrew is doing a great job of mixing!

I'll be posting more updates soon, so stay tuned!  Thanks again everyone for your support!

Yours,

Dave
