Update #18: State of the album address

Posted on September 13, 2009

Hey guys! I figured I should give you an update on what's been going down.

As of now, the record is in it's final stages of mixing. A couple weeks ago I left it in the hands of my friend and hero Dan Romer, who has been spending his spare time making it sound awesome. You might know him from the work he's done with Ingrid Michaelson and my good friends Jenny Owen Youngs and Bess Rogers. The man is a badass and is making me sound REALLY cool. Get ready!

I have spent the last 6 hours working on the first draft of the album artwork. If all goes according to plan, I could have this sent out for pressing in the next week! Right now I'm hoping for a November release, mostly 'cause I want to have some time to promote it after I get the physical discs in my hands. PLUS I have to have time to send out copies to all of you who are getting it early!

Anyway, stay tuned for more information.

OH! And thank you everyone who watched the Marathon live stream a couple weeks ago! It was fantastic. If you missed it you can still watch the recording over at http://allisonweiss.tv. Just click "Menu" and then "On Demand". I'm warning you though, it's 4.5 hours long.

And of course, everyone who donated is going to get a recording of the whole thing. I'll be posting it here when it's ready!

That's it for now. Talk to you soon!

XO

ALLISON
