Track us tracking!

Hey guys,

It's been a few days, so studio updates!!

We have finished our first single, called Catch Your Breath! It will air on 98Rock (!!!) on August 8th, around 11pm. We'll be doing a quick interview, premiering the song, and pusing our show at The Quarter on August 9th- it would be so good to get your feedback if you can tune in and come out on the 9th!

Matt spent pretty much all day yesterday tracking the drums for Trouble and Low... for those of you with an EP, you'll be in for a few changes on Low! And Trouble is one of my favorite songs of ours... stoked about this track.

We'll be back in the studio on Monday working on more drum tracks.

We want you to be as much a part of the process as we are- so we will be live feeding most of the recording process!!
http://www.livestream.com/ttrstudio1 will give you upfront access into the studio!

And, we are at 75% funded on kickstarter!! Thank you guys so very much. We are deeply moved by your generosity. We have about 3 weeks to finish funding it- and the more $$ that comes in, the better final mix we'll be able to afford for the final. Spam your friends!! :)

Alright. Hope everyone has a good weekend, see you at Artscape?!

peace.

Kickstarter and the new album

Hey guys,

We have been in the studio the last few weeks, are aiming to have the album done being recorded by the end of August.

After paying for the recording process, it leaves us broke with no money to mix, master, or print the album.

This is where we need you. Visit our Kickstarter donation site (run through Amazon) to back our album. We have some cool rewards for backers!!

This site, if we reach our goal, will take a HUGE chunk of time off the release date. We're talking, 8-12 months.

As we wrote and started the recording process, we have found this album to be about finding our worth. It's about life and living and hurt and sorrow. It's about going back for the brokenhearted. 
It's about stirring hope where hope has long been forgotten.

As always, we need you guys. If you can, we would be deeply grateful for your financial backing.
We are humbled by your continuous support of us.

Much love,
TTR

NEWS!!!

SO HERE IT IS!!!

We have been back in the studio working on our full length album... after much back and forth as to how we should go about this process, we have decided to release a BRAND NEW track to kick off the album!!

AND!!! this track, as of now called "catch your breath", WILL BE AIRING ON 98 ROCK ON AUGUST 8TH!!!!!

We will be doing an on air interview to promote the new song, as well as promoting our first show at the Quarter at Bourbon Street in Baltimore the next night (August 9th)!!

AND?!?! TSHIRTS!!!! WE WILL FINALLY HAVE TSHIRTS AVAILABLE AT THE SHOW!!
They will be a limited number, limited print... so make sure you're there!!

MOST IMPORTANTLY: as always, 20% of what we bring in goes right back out to The Mentoring Project. This is not to "toot our own horns" (or, play our own guitars...) this just to say that we believe deeply in what they are doing and are incredibly excited about the opportunity to share with them, and now you, in their fight against neglect.

Thanks guys. YOU are the reason why we're able to do any of this.
Thank you.

Studio Day #2

We are officially making headway our new album!

Drums and rhythm guitars were tracked last week for our newest song- today, we tracked bass and lead guitar. Luke was ON POINT and sounded rad... and Tom has something special saved up for everyone on this song. We cannot wait for you to hear his leads here... a (somewhat) new direction for TTR!

So far, we are pretty stoked about the tones coming out of the studio.

We really want our heart to come through on this new batch of songs... something we felt was missing on the EP.

Tomorrow we'll be releasing some big, exciting news... stick around for info on upcoming shows, new merch, and something else that we are INCREDIBLY EXCITED to tell you!!

tomorrow.

much love.
