Greetings Everyone. How are you all doing a mere three weeks before Christmas? Wow, where did year 2011 go?
Once again KW has been busy with the almighty pen and paper along with DD and I setting the table for our latest piece of time and music.
We began this task almost a year and half ago and finally we are heading around the corner to completion. I hadn't listened to the demo's in probably six months myself- and actually that was a great thing to do- because now we can take a whole new prospective to the finished product.
The only other local talent on this album other then ourselves and our sound engineer Dean is Susie and Jake from the infamous Blue J's band. They missed appearances on the Full Circle' album so we wanted to include them on “Back to Basics”. Don't be surprised if smoke fills yours speakers when Jake fires up that strat along with some great background vocals by Ms. Susie.
We also have a few other folks helping us out with Banjo, Harmonica, pedal steel and piano from as far away as Corning, NY.
I am very excited about this project as we continue to round the final corner. Also with eleven cuts prepared we now have a need to include one more very special tune written by a friend of ours (Dave) titled "God's Angel".
Dave gave KW the lyrics to this beautiful tune with a ton of personal meaning associated with it and asked him to put music to it. What a fantastic job KW did achieving this goal. Now DD and I will put the final touch to it with full instrumentation. Do I sound excited or what? It’s the best material to date my friends, you will see.
Now on to business. Last Week we were at the Central Hotel. The show went over well but with so much going this last weekend in other local events, the crowd was a bit light. That was OK, by the second set we found the SCB groove and we put some fire to the show. It was our last Hotel show for 2011. We’ll see you back there in mid January.
This Saturday we head back to Damascus (Windsor area) at GORDY'S PLACE. The Show begins at 8pm.. We hope you can make it down for some good music, good friends and some great wings.
So as we wrap up another year in “Short Change-Ville” we want to thank all of you - THE FANS for your continued support in 2011. We never know how long the ride will go on for us, that is why we enjoy the Journey week after week year after year, It's all good.
If you see DD this week wish him a Happy Birthday. Veronica has a birthdaqy too and next week Pretty Patty P M squared.
Peace and love,
Mikee^^ Dee
