young fools...?

So yesterday, I put down vocal tracks on the Young Fools Ep. At the risk of sounding cocky (nevermind, I always do) it's sounding pretty f'ing good. That leaves just a few back up vocals and some auxiliary tracks (shakers, tambos, maybe some keys) to lay down and then it's time for the mix! The next session is February 23rd, and a tentative mix session set for the first of March. We're fortunate enough to have one of Jerad and Ben's instructors on board to do a final mix on the cheap, so we might actually sound like a real band this time around! 

I don't mind telling you, I'm super pumped to get this Ep finished. Once it's finished we can start getting down to business. More practice, more songs and overall a better sense of direction. I feel like this could be the start of something good, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed.  

We've got a show on St. Patty's day at the Fat Cat. I've been looking forward to playing this venue for a few years, it's got a HUGE stage and pro sound. I'm hoping that a St. Patrick's day show will ensure a good turn out, but it is a tuesday night, so that remains to be seen. If you're in the Stockton/Lodi/Modesto/Tracy/Central California area, you should come out, it should be a pretty good show. I mean, we're playing, and we're awesome, so it's already got that going for it.

love,

Zachary D.
