Updates, Updates, Updates
If you did not know, Jessica, my wife is pregnant. She is due in about 1 month so we are really close. She and I are super exited.
Its been awhile since I posted and alot has happened. I have finally gotten the CD Mastered, the artwork completed, and both of those sent off to DiscMakers. They are a company that does CD duplication. So while the CD has been out, getting copied, I have been working hard to promote the CD release show.
I am really exited to announce the new band, Curtis (you know), John Luzzi on electrics, Frank Metting on Keys, and Ian Sheridan on Bass. I think you are going to be pretty exited about the sound. This is the most talented group of guys I have ever gotten to play with. Each of them is a pro and delivers 100%.
As I was thinking about it, I wanted to thank you, my friends and fans, for coming out to Willows, Vino, Wineries, and other shows over the past 3 years. It has been a crazy ride that I enjoy so much. Its all made possible by you. So THANK YOU!!!
There are also a couple of people that I wanted to thank. They also have thanks on the CD but the following people have made this CD and my musical journey possible. Curtis Ryker, always on time, with great gear, and a great attitude. I can’t say enough about Curtis. Bryce Francis, who took an chance on a singer-songwriter that wasn’t sure what he was doing. Bryce learned the parts for the last CD release show in about a month and played live with us at that show. He followed that performance up by stepping in and playing most of the shows since. From great wine gigs to empty spots that we weren’t sure we should even be playing. Bryce is also a great friend.
Dan Purser and Kyle Stevens. For being my friend, for offering advice when I needed it and help if that is what it took.
Tabitha Smoot, David Larring and Matt Erickson for helping me record this CD. They worked for almost nothing and delivered a product that is better than my wildest expectations.
And finally my wife…. She believed in this before I did. Whats to say, she’s the best.
Thanks again to my family, friends and fans. You have made this possible. Come out to the CD release show. It would be my pleasure to have you there.
