Last night we recorded the basic tracks for the final three songs in this project. As always, we had great fun in the studio, and Ben the engineer was really good at getting the sounds. He’s easy to work with, a night owl like us – and it was just so nice not to have […]

Marmalade Moonlight
Tonight I re-did the vocals on Marmalade Moonlight (they’d had noise on the track the first time). It’s a fun song, based upon events that one sometimes stumbles into: a bacchanal gathering in an enchanted wood.
Between the Worlds
Between the Worlds I’m sure you’ve felt it too…the feeling as if you live “between the worlds”.

But now I’ve decided to jot down what’s going on with the music, new songs, the current recording, and other random stuff. Postings of shows, recordings, and musings and ramblings.
