It's Great To Be Back

Thanks to everyone who came out to our show at Skully's last weekend.  The Whiles and Flotation Walls were fantastic and we were so happy to finally be playing out again.  Eric Bros came out and shot some pics.  Check them out here.

We have an album title!


So it's getting near crunch time for getting this album done.  We've been stirring over album titles for the last few weeks and have finally decided on "Length of Arms".  It'll also be the title of one of the songs on the album.  The search for album artwork has also begun.
Casey has started recording his vocal tracks, a process that can be extremely stressful (nothing a couple sips of red wine can't fix!).  After auditioning a handful of microphones, we decided on two different ones to group together, presenting both clarity and a rich vintage tone.  The sounds have been amazing.  Once the vocals are done we're left with just a few finishing touches.

Studio Update

Wanted to touch base and let everybody know we're right in the thick of recording our follow-up album.  We've been practically locked in the studio since mid-July and things couldn't be going any better.  We, along with our producer, Mike Landolt and engineer, Fred Blitzer have been working extremely hard in getting the most out of our performances and capturing the mood for each song.  It's been an amazing experience thus far and we should be wrapping things up in the next couple weeks.  We can't wait to share our new songs with everyone and finally play out again!  See everyone soon...

Welcome!

Welcome to The Receiver blog!  We've decided to start this blog to keep everyone updated as to what we've been up to.  We're gonna be working on content for days to come so keep checking back.  We're excited to finally be sharing our experiences with everyone!
