I can't believe its been 2 years since my last posts. I haven't been writing much lately. I still don't completely understand what inspires songwriters to write every day, maybe there's only a few writers who can do that.
For the past year and a half, the Big Sky Gliders have been in and out of Rick Garvins studio working on our second CD. All songs are self- penned between Don, Brian, and myself. So the songwriting didn't stop, but it certainly slowed down. Maybe it's because we are concentrating more on playing and recording and the songwriting focus is in the background.
We are nearing the finish line for the CD. A couple of instrument tracks to finish and the do the final edits, mixing, and mastering. The duplicator is all lined up. Artwork needs to be done. Delivery of the CDs is probably in September.
We brought a few friends into the studio. Some backing vocals by Wanda and Izzy. Fiddle by Kyle. Electric guitar leads by Breezy. Drums by Yvonne. The CD has some interesting sounds and some variety in which there is likely to be something for everybody to like.
After getting through the first CD, I think we were more patient and took our time to get what we wanted and what is right for the songs. A couple of tune, we weren't happy with on the first take, so we went home, reworked them, then went back to record a second version.. It was a wise choice. This time, We put the songs first.
