We FINALLY finished our EP, one year after recording it! It was bittersweet since, Casa Borrega, our home of four years and the place where the band was born and thrived, recently had to close its doors. Sad to say, in spite of New Orleans’ magnificent music scene and rich history, the Powers That Be seem more interested in rolling out the red carpet for AirBnB and coddle mega corporations like Shell than supporting local music venues and the city’s vibrant music scene.
We recorded the EP live in the resonant cypress clad dining room of Casa Borrega, with Alex Levy on the controls. Overdubs and final mixing happened at Phil’s Snoball Studios. Margie Perez, now our full time singer, also overdubbed some wonderful backing vocals.
