We start all of our pre-productions for our CD by coming into a studio and play around with any and all ideas that the band members might have. This CD was something that we really put a lot of work into. We have done two CDs together and really like the chemistry we have in the studio and on tour.Ĭould you tell me a bit about the recording process?
