Thought I’d interrupt an odd Wednesday with a couple of tidbits:
1) Joey Stuckey & I are almost done tracking MIXTURE – we’re discussing whether to write another tune for the album, or to let it be. We also have to add drums to one more tracks, and my wife Pam Rule will be coming in to add some tasty scat singing to one track…..then it’s on to the mixdowns!
2) I’ll be playing with the Cloud 9 Orchestra the weekend before Thanksgiving up at Camp Winshape (a.k.a The Chik-fil-a retreat center @ Berry College in Rome, GA). We are playing for the Doctrinal Studies Bible Church 2011 Marriage Conference. We’ll be giving a full concert on Saturday November 19th, plus playing for the sessions and other assorted things.
These are an incredible group of guys – headed up by Scooter Ward – who do Big Band style in a contemporary worship setting. It’s gonna be cool – especially since I’ll be playing a baby grand AND my Roland RD700sx keyboard at the same time. Lotsa fun!
If you’ve ever heard Denver and the Mile High Orchestra, you’ve got an idea of what Cloud 9 sounds like……in fact, at least one member of the MHO will be joining us in Rome.
