recent
Savings from shows and CD sales helped buy a Metric Halo Mobile i/o, which allows us to record direct into the laptop through some decent preamps. We're still learning how to run the new device, but we'll soon be able to do some of the projects we're planning--remote/mobile recording sessions: Handwringers, a mix between Black Cab Sessions, DayTrotter, and lofi farm.

past
Recording using various bond/weight paper--tissue, wax paper, kleenex, copier paper, etc.--woven into and through the guitars strings. Layers of vibrations, tones.
Glad to hear JP Olsen (Beetkeepers, Burn Barrel, Tim Easton, etc.) is recording again, with Anton Fier (Feelies) producing and Tim Easton lending a hand. And Old 3C re-releasing their
music .
OtherAlso: Karin and I also had a chance to play with Shambie Singer a while back. Shambie was in
Palace of Oranges and before that, the Lonely Moans on SubPop . Really like the way he plays. Brings out and creates some unusual melodic tones in our music.
Karin has had a show this summer/fall at Williams College Museum of Art (WCMA)
