Recording in Nashville Day 1

It’s finally here! Everything we’ve been working toward and saving is finally happening for reals y’all. This afternoon we packed the trustworthy (hardly) truck and started our trip to Nashville, TN to record an album.  

Welcome to TN

Jason, our tour guide/recording engineer, took us to the best BBQ Nashville has to offer at Jack’s.

Boots Store

Despite the rainy weather, we still took to the streets and dropped by the Buy 1 Get 2 Free boot store. No one had the walnuts to buy any. When we walked back outside, we decided the rain was too devastating to walk around any longer, and headed home to sit. 

Ryan and Tyler passing time  

Most of Friday night was spent waiting to head over to the studio to unload our gear. Time-passing-activities mostly included watching B and Jordan playing Oregon Trail or listening to Ryan play piano like he had wooden hands. 

Oh yeah, also, we left Andy behind, because he’s Asian. Actually he came down late because he had to work, but you’re not visiting the page because you want to hear about Andy…so back to the blog… 

Mindy is getting into town early Saturday morning from California. She’s currently running for best friend/fan ever by coming out to support us in the studio and documenting what we’re doing the whole weekend. 

Everyone is excited to get down to business Saturday and start tracking our first songs… and we want you to be there too.  Join us live via ustream.tv tomorrow and see and hear what we are up to.  Check back here at 11:00 AM EST to see the live feeds and leave a comment so we know you stopped by. 

The setlist for Saturday includes:

  • It’s Okay
  • Sound of Waves
  • So Cold Alone
  • More Than a Word
  • Chicago 

Check out the rest of our photos from the first day.

    [...] I managed to find a shower today…and we dominated our goal in the studio! If you remember correctly, I said our goal was to knock out 4-5 songs on Saturday. Not only did we do 4-5 songs, but we did 6 [...]
