On Thursday night Yon and I worked on what is shaping up to be the penultimate song on Matthew Lovelace's upcoming full length. At least for now. The song is called "Steel Guitar", and we hope to have a version posted to the Migrant Song of the Day soon. Just gotta get some vocals on it first.

Album Building
So over Christmas break Matthew Lovelace got to come visit for almost a week, and in that time we got to work on his album.

(Untitled)
