weekly random report

1. SOULKISS completed our first three songs for our album on sunday. it has to be one of the greatest sessions i've ever been a part of. we completed vocals on three songs, leads and backgrounds, essentially in one take. we did two takes of most songs just so we'd have a backup if there were some pitchy spots, but it was like being back in the 70s. we were all miked and we did our vocals together so that you will actually be listening to a group sing TOGETHER, not sing everything perfectly so that all of the emotion is sucked out of it. we hope to release late spring...more to come.

2. working like crazy on our 2010 plan. we are looking at a tour to coincide with the release...and this time, it will include the UK and Europe. we are looking at venues now...so if you have any information on London, Northern England, Germany, Sweden, the Netherlands and Japan, please hit me up at tim@timdillinger.com!

3. very excited to have heard two rough mixes on elizabeth cunningham's 'maevensong' cd which i was a part of producing. it is absolutely riveting and probably the greatest music i have ever been a part of. be sure to check her out at http://elizabethandmaeve.blogspot.com and www.passionofmarymagdalen.com. her books are essential reading. you can purchase them at www.amazon.com.

4. very excited about my trip to Nashville next week. all of the details on the performance are on the prior post. it will be my first time performing in nashville since last september on my birthday! i'm looking forward to singing with my old musical companions there.

5. not as silly as some of the prior random emails. guess there's alot to talk about this week :) be encouraged everybody...and i'll write more soon...
