It's been a little while since the last update, and things are going well for Art and Candy! Our recording session with George Shalda at Bear Dog Studios was an absolute blast--George gets unbelievably amazing sound from his equipment, and it made the entire process seem effortless! The tracks are amidst George's long queue of mixing and mastering projects, but we should have a projected date soon. More importantly, we'll be starting a Kickstarter campaign to raise the last bit of money we'll need to put the finishing touches on the CD. More on that soon--and there will be some great perks for any and all that can pitch in!
And last but certainly not least, our performance at San Antonio's 2015 Summer Art and Jazz Fest was a smashing success! Despite the sun, we had a great, energetic crowd cheering on myself and Candy, as well as our good friend Brandon Guerra (drums) and the phenomenal San Antonio local bass favorite Bob Storck. We also got to meet the awesome Chieli Manucci of Queens, NY, one of the festival's featured guitarists! I will openly admit to blushing pretty hard when he mentioned that he and his crew were watching my hands throughout our performance.
That's about everything for now! Our regular Friday shows continue, 6:00-8:30 at Austin's Brass House, and keep an eye on the AJCJazz calendar for updates on new shows. See you out there!
