song 8

and so onto song # 8.  sorry for the delay since our last post – rehearsing for the recent show kept us from working on the next song but don’t worry, we’re about to get you caught up real fast.  t

this time a first – David Bos came to me with some guitar chords he’d written, which turned out to be the basis for our next song.  here’s the demo he recorded in his home studio, with just him on guitars and tambourine:

song 8 (1st demo)

from there, I rearranged things a little and overdubbed some bass and drums and wrote a new bridge and vocal melody.  the lyrics you’ll hear on the demo below were improvised stream-of-consciousness “placeholders” designed to hear how the melody sounded and nothing more.  what can I say, the lyrics suck but it’s how I work ;)

song 8 (2nd demo)

finally, we have a rough mix which uses the 2nd demo as a foundation.  there are new guitar overdubs by David (3-4 tracks) and a new bass overdub along with some acoustic guitar and mandolin by me.  all that’s missing now are the lyrics.  stay tuned . . .
