Mastering Better Days

Hello and Happy Holidays to all our wonderful friends and fans!

It’s been a while since our last update on the status of Better Days, so we’re excited to tell you that we’ve reached a major milestone in its production.

After countless long nights working on the mixes with Andrew Spindor at The Habitat Recording Studios, we finally signed off on the final versions of the songs a few weeks ago. Since then we have been looking for the perfect person to master Better Days, and we’re happy to announce that the extraordinary Scott Hull will be the guy! His credits include many Grammy-winning albums, and he's worked with many of the biggest names in music including Steely Dan, John Mayer, Sting, Herbie Hancock, and too many others to list here. Needless to say, we’re thrilled to have him working on our album! You can read more about Scott and his impressive list of credentials here: http://www.scotthullmastering.com/

Those unfamiliar with music production might be wondering, what exactly is this “mastering” thing Mr. Hull is putting our album through? Well, here’s the man himself explaining the process:



Getting the album to this point has been a long haul, and we appreciate the patience you’ve had as the production schedule has stretched beyond our initial estimates. We’re currently anticipating a spring 2015 release with shows in Vancouver and Powell River, and more shows to follow across Canada in the summer.

We thank you for your continued support and cannot wait for you to hear this!

Happy New Year!

Late Nights, Early Mornings

We've been spending some late nights this month with Andrew Spindor at Habitat Studios chiselling Better Days into its final form. Although this album has ended up taking more time than we first planned for, seeing the faint light ahead at the far end of the tunnel makes it clear that the extra effort has been well worth it.

If you're taking part in the Rock N Roll Vancouver Half-Marathon this weekend, keep your eyes and ears open for us playing next to the route near the aquarium!

Album Progress Update

Just a little note to let you know that we've been in the studio making adjustments to the sound of the album and getting all the details just the way we want them. We are bursting with excitement. Projected release date is currently sitting at early 2015.  Thanks for being patient with us. In the meantime, fulfillment of some Indiegogo perks will soon be underway.
