Finally (for now)… the BAND OF OTHER BROTHERS with Will Lee, Jeff Coffin, Keith Carlock, Nir Felder and myself is finishing up overdubs, vocals, and mixes on our upcoming holiday album! And we’re PUMPED! It’s sounding really great. Half re-imagined holiday chestnuts and half new original songs, lots of fun vocals from Will (with a guest vocal from Lucy Woodward), this going to be a fun one. Chris Allen is handling the engineering on this one and doing a stellar job— this guy is a supreme wrangler of tones! So stay tuned and leave room in your stockings for this one…
That’s all for now!
