At the beginning of March, I reached out to a small boutique studio located in Burlington, VT about recording an EP, possibly an LP. I will be working with recording engineer, Ryan, at Robot Dog Studio located on Flynn Avenue. This is a big step for me for many reasons. I will finally be putting down tracks to songs new and old that have been sitting in my songwriting vault hidden away. I’m doing this project solo. In my past recording ventures, I’ve always had help from top notch musicians. I’m working in an unfamiliar environment, with a person I don’t personally know in a space that is foreign. Lastly, it’s a big commitment creatively, personally and financially. At times, I question myself – why am I putting all of this time, effort, money into recording my songs? Why is this so important to me? I second guess my ability to do this on my own, without the help from other musicians. I’m going to put the second guessing aside and keep moving ahead. I’m hoping that I will get the results I am looking for. There is so much to do in preparation for my first session scheduled on May 11th. I am still working out which songs I want to start with. Currently, the list is: Please Take Care; Thank You; Are We Safe; I’m Done; Tell Me It’s Over; I’m Truly Lucky
