Hawp begins recording tracks for the new CD this week, which is tentatively scheduled for release in the Fall. No firm title yet, but probably something to do with storms.
The material is mostly original and there will be a nice balance of tune sets and song tracks. The arrangements are shaping up to be nice and full with a wide range of moods. Upbeat reels, bouncy jigs, exotic, odd-time signature tunes, songs about lost fisher folk, hauntings, love… its all going to be there.
We’ll be working in a beautiful old farm house while we record the bulk of the instrumental tracks, thanks to the generosity of two wonderful friends, Paul and Teresa.
So its off to sequester for the next few days. More to come when there’s time to breathe!
