Band Of Horses

[corey]

These guys are in town to make a new album. A friend of mine works at one of the local guitar shops and he said he met them last week. They came in and were asking some questions , buying stuff, blah blah blah. So he asked why they were in town and who they were. He didn't realize what they look like.  :)

Anyway, they were apparently at one studio, but moved to another studio in town and another guy that I know is getting to be an assistant because he is the main engineer at the place. Pretty cool...

Where do you live? They're Charleston locals and I'm interested in seeing what they're up to...

[corey]

I live in the Shoals area of NW Alabama. I'm not sure if they are at the studio this week or not. I know they were spotted a few times last week.

[Ghosts_on_TV]

I read they were in Alabama to record....

[dragonboy]

Great news indeed, thanks for the heads-up Corey!

I absolutely adore Cease to Begin!!!

[easy way]

Ahhhh...hell yeah. I can't wait for this goodness. I'm sure they'll be busting out the new stuff in Atlanta.

[Love Dogg]

If they're in the studio now, then the album should be out.............................by March-ish?  I can't wait to see what it's like.  I loved those guys from the beginning.  They're not for everybody though.

[The Drake]

These guys are really starting to grow on me.

I'll be interested to see what happens with the recordings. Someone told me that they were basically just doing demos while they were here, but it seems weird to come all the way down here to try to capture the "essence" of a place like the Shoals just to get some demos.

These guys are SO down to earth and SO approachable very much like MMJ in those aspects. And as far as I'm concerned that is a great quality in an individual. So many popular people have their heads up their asses and forget who they once were. :-/

My friend at the music store said the same thing. He said that they came back by on their way out of town to thank all the employees for their hospitality while they were here.

[Kwabbernoot]

So, how about Grand Archives, the "new" band from Mat Brooke. I like it very much.

They're not coming anywhere close enough for me (like within 200 miles), but we'll see...

Do you know when the new album is coming out?  Couldn't find anything about it on their website.

I think I remember reading Spring/Summer 2009 but don't quote me...Rccola71? Corey?

[corey]

I haven't heard anything. The last thing that I heard was that most of the stuff that they recorded while they were at FAME in Muscle Shoals ended up being demo sessions instead of master sessions. I think they did more tracking at Echo Mountain, which will probably end up being the album material.

I could be wrong about all of that though.

[dragonboy]

Cheers for that Corey!  :)

Can you make it to any of the shows?
