As promised, here are the names of the guys who played on the record: Chris Maresh, Rick Richards, Daran DeShazo, and Kevin Lovejoy.
I've gone back and added all their names to my previous posts, but I haven't yet filled in the blanks for the names of the songs on the album.
I know this has got to be frustrating, but I've got my reasons.
For one thing, there is a song in the list that doesn't have a name yet. Not kidding. Also, Billy and I want to feel free to change our minds about any or all of the songs on our list.
Also, there are some REALLY NEW songs on the list- songs that I wrote as recently as January. I don't want to let the cat out of the bag too soon. It's going to be nice to save some surprises for the album release. It wouldn't be a new CD if there wasn't something new on it.
I thought it was time to give you the names of the core band because we've tracked everything we're going to track for each of these guys. They all did amazing work. I can't believe how good this is sounding. We won't keep everything we got from them. Right now we're whittling down the tracks to just the essentials. We've got a ton to work with.
We're not done recording yet. There are a few more musicians coming in to add their magic next month and we haven't recorded harmonies yet. But what we've got so far is wonderful. And we're well on our way to an album I'm already so proud of.
Here are some more random photos from the Blue Rock sessions. Thanks for all your support in making this happen.
