So to kick things off, here are some details about where we are so far.2 songs are pretty much written and drums tracks were recorded a few weeks ago with our producer, engineer, mixer, comedy genius Mitch.
Doug, as always did a steller job

 

 

The first track (“Old Hands”) we’ve played live a few times.
This started off life as an idea Dan had which Dave added slide guitar to. I had an idea for a chorus melody pretty much instantly and we built it up basically from there. The middle section came about from a cool drum pattern young Douglas had.
Dan went in to the studio last week and recorded some guitars which are sounding great.

Track 2 is a longer piece made up of a number of sections. This one started off life as a demo I sent round and in true Tin Spirits fashion was ripped to pieces and put back together by the 4 of us.
Just to give you an idea it started off at 9 minutes. We took about 3 minutes off it and then added 8 minutes. Prog innit!

So moving on there’s lots to be done but lots of great ideas floating around.
Currently working on 4 strong ideas including 2 great Dave compositions one of which may serve as an intro to something big.

More on those as they take shape!!!
