Back in September I posted a Long Overdue Album Update! and now here I am with another.

I have made a series of demo mixes of the album and done additional tracking since then, including hiring some session musicians to add some horn and string parts.  I’ve also mocked up some cover art to use for the demo mixes although actual final cover art is still TBD.  As you can see, I’m naming the album Capistrano, which also happens to be the proper name of the Very Good Boy gracing the cover.  His nicknames are Cappy or Cap but his full name is Capistrano and he informs me that this is the first time anybody has ever named an album after him.  Go figure.

As of the most recent demo mix, the album consists of eleven tracks and runs about 40 minutes but there are a few things in flux and it could potentially (re)gain a twelfth track by the time I get it out the door.  I hope to have all the tracking done by next week and then it will be time to get into mixing and then mastering.  I’ve already started laying down songs for the next album.  Nothing makes me more excited to make music than making music.  🙂

I can’t wait to share this with the world.  It’s been a long time coming…
