But wait, there's more!
May. 23rd, 2013 08:43 amWe are going into the studio for single #2 tonight! Yes indeed, not one but two versions of Haunted! It's going to be pretty. It's going to be silly. It's going to be pretty silly! The straight up, lovely version and the "I can't believe we just did that" version.
Hmmm, maybe the next session will include the redneck blues version of Narrow Way.
Also, go take a look, we finally have a cover for the first single. I'm kinda proud of it.

This Thursday we go into the studio to record the second single. Later that evening I am going to finally get around to doing something I have been meaning to do for a couple of years now ...
I am finally going to record a version of Folsom Prison Nightmare. Be afraid. I want your opinion on this. It will be 5 verses, the first verse being the first verse from the original. I need 4 more. The list of what I have so far is below the cut. What do you think I should do to you?
( I've got a little list )

Please help spread the signal
May. 16th, 2013 02:03 pmWe have released the first part of Singles and Fiddly Bits and so far virtually no downloads. 4 as of last night and it's been out a week. So please help spread the signal. We intend to do 3 more of these before Susan moves away.
We want this music to get heard. It's pay what you want, so DL it for free. Just DL it and tell others about it.
Out Of The Light - Trio version. The CD version was a full band, so it was missing Susan's marvelous gamba part. This is how we do it live.
A Song About Fog - Maybe Lizzie's loveliest melody. Susan's viola playing is gorgeous (if I do say so myself, and I do say so myself).
Coming up in the weeks ahead ...
Haunted - two versions - Kind of like Daughter Of The Red, the serious, lovely version and the brain melter version.
Catnyp / Narrow Way - A brand new song, only played out a few times so far. And a song for Adam Selzer's sadly unfinished Prospero and The Tempest Tossed project which turned out to be too eerie to leave to that project.
Village By The Sea / Witch In Your Story - Two Susan songs, these versions are fueled by Scotty Moore and Richard Thompson (on the first) and Slade (on the 2nd). I think maybe to her slight dismay.
We need your help to get the music out there. Take a listen, tell your friends.

Just a reminder!
May. 13th, 2013 07:53 amSince we posted these late Friday. There are two new recordings up on Bandcamp
Out Of The Light - The trio version
A Song About Fog - A brand new song featuring Susan's lovely viola!
They are pay what you want. There will be 3 more of these releases in the next month or two.
We will start the planning for the 2nd full length CD toward the end of summer. If all goes well we may have it out by OVFF.

It is pay what you want. Please put a little money towards the recording cost! Take a listen to a new song. Take a listen to an old song the way we usually perform it!

Two songs, no waiting
May. 10th, 2013 08:17 amWe recorded Out Of The Light and A Song About Fog last night. The first of the summer singles. Donna did amazing things mixing these songs. It makes me really look forward to the next CD.
What started this was that we wanted the band version of Out Of The Light. The version on the CD is good, but doesn't really show what it is like live. Things expanded and now we are going to record songs that will appear on the next CD, but since Susan is moving, may not be recorded the way we do them now. We are making especially sure that the songs featuring the Gamba are recorded. The rest of the singles should be ...
Haunted (two versions)
Catnyp / Narrow Way
Village By The Sea / Witch In Your Story
We expect to be back in the studio in 2 weeks.

Recordings and stuff!
May. 7th, 2013 09:19 amCheshire Moon is going into the studio Thursday to record the trio version of Out Of The Light. The full band version on the CD is good and all, but we have wanted the live arrangement of it recorded for awhile. We're also going to record A Song About Fog. We need a recording with the Viola! Susan has been doing lovely things with it.
There is a larger plan. We intend, if all goes well, to record a few 2 track singles to upload onto Bandcamp. We want to capture our sound as a trio before Susan leaves later this summer. All of these songs will be re-recorded for the CD, but in very different versions. We may have the first two songs up as early as this weekend!
