I came home to record some parts for the record that we are still working on as hard as ever, and found myself simply looking around and breathing in all things home.
The weather was incredible. The end of fall is almost as gorgeous as the late september peak. It is when the earth takes on the most subtle tones. The air is alive and the skies are moody. Snow is just covering firm ground. I just really like these times.
My house was so warm. It was great to see my family and my dog, catching up over books, and around a fireplace. My room was such a haven to my body worn of campus living. I was able to spend some very needed time alone with music, books, and boxes of summer memories.
I lived with my dearest friends and bandmates again. We caught up in small increments and shared stories, thoughts, worries and music.
We watched the world turn winter.
With all this said, we also spent time in the studio. We were able to track vocals on three of the tracks that we will be releasing which was a good feeling. We felt like the weekend set us up well for our recording plans for Christmas break. It was a good way to, in a sense, sink back into the studio after about a two month break.
I am still very excited about everything that we have been working on. And even though now it is hard for me to see how everything will all come together, I feel confident that we are producing something good.
We will be posting a demo on our myspace soon so check back often!
Talk to you soon,
Jacob
