Looking Ahead

Practice on Monday was amazing! We opened the blinds and practiced as we watched a massive thunderstorm roll in; it was pretty neat and the power stayed on, so that was a blessing! We worked through 7 of the 11 album tracks and it is coming along very well.

Yesterday Luke and I met with Joe Dunlap from The Bongo Tree recording studio and talked about scheduling etc. We are looking to be recording July 18th through the 26th and are excited beyond words.

Joe and I ended up talking until almost 2am and it is really refreshing and exciting to be able to work with someone who looks at music very much the same as I do.

This is going to be a summer that will not soon be forgotten.

Update

Time for an update on whats been going on in Canoes world. We are still gearing up for the recording of our first full length album at the end of July. It looks like it will be about 11 tracks and it is coming together rather nicely.

A big reason for this is after a few weeks of sorting through stuff, we now have our old drummer, Adam Simmons back on the drum throne. He will just be recording the record and possibly playing the CD release show. We are so excited to have him on board for both what he brings to the table on the kit and for the crafting of songs.

Tonight we have just our second practice with Adam, but things have went really well last week and we are excited to see what progress is made tonight.

Keep up to date with what we do by following us on Facebook, tumblr, and twitter!

We are so excited for what is to come. - Kile for Canoes

Alsoooo…..be sure to go check out our really good friend, Joe Plante, he just dropped a new record last week. He recorded at the same place that we are recording, The Bongo Tree, with Joe Dunlap. It is hot and will most likely be your new favorite record of the summer.
