We are pleased to announce the arrival of our third CD together. Once more we recorded at home and took the rough tracks to our Master of Mixing, Recording Whiz and Superhuman, Jerry Brown , of the Rubber Room in Chapel Hill NC. Dittyville traveled around some this time. We started out at Carl's old farmhouse but the place was slated to be sold and we weren't able to finish recording before we had to pack it all up and leave. We are sad to see that wonderful old house go and hope it has a glorious future. Then we moved into a garage behind a house that Beverly was living in in Athens, Georgia, but, again, it was a race with the clock before she had to move into her farmhouse in Bogart. The house in Bogart is a wonderful old place (ya'll come visit!) with train tracks in the front yard and a freight train that comes by and rocks the china every so often. A bit of a challenge for recording! But here it is, our newest release, Glow, named for one of the songs we wrote together, complete with the sounds of crickets and rain. And a barking dog or two. You can't control everything. Fortunately. Peace to all of you.
