The First Single!!

I started this blog on October 15th and I'm proud to say that in 24 days the guys and I produced and recorded our first single "All the Everything".  The song will be available for download soon.  Until then here is a simple video I posted on youtube where you can hear the track.


Thank you to everyone for all of your support and feed back, we look forward to what you have to say about the song.  I'm going to be out of town with Tyler for a week but as soon as I get home we are headed back into the studio to get started on our second song.  We will also be playing some live shows in the coming weeks and will get those details to you as soon as we can.  

Until next time here are some pics taken during the tracking of "All the Everything".    

Enjoy,
Luke

Finishing touches

Today is a big day for us, I believe that we are done tracking for "All the Everything"! That means I have some gear head work ahead of me for mixing the song but I'm just fine with that. Last Friday night on the 29th Cameron called me up and wanted to know if he could come over to record. I was really excited. We tracked the bass part and also did a lot of production work.


The last few days have been really productive. It all started on Monday the 1st, which also happens to be the 7 year anniversary of the Second Gravity show at Blue Ridge....what a great night. On Monday Tyler came over and I worked on the bass some more. Ty was able to lay down all of his vocals and some of his tambourine track. Then on Tuesday the 2nd I was working on a few things but found myself stuck. Cameron saved me that night by coming over for just an hour or so and recorded a new piano outro that sounds incredible and will make the final cut. Today Tyler made a last minute call to come over. He just bought a brand new Pearl snare drum and a new set of symbols. They sounded great and were very easy to record.

Before Tyler got here I was able to finish all of my vocals and did a lot of pre mix production.  I can't wait for everyone to hear the song.  The good news is you won't have long to wait  because the finished product should be ready by Saturday evening.

Here is a video of a few moments of this week's events in the studio.
