Whole Damn Nation nearly completed!

Hey everyone, it has been a while so hello!  I have been extremely busy recording but also working (any musician without a day job these days is a poor musician lol!)

After many all nighters and thousands of dollars, I am happy to say that “Whole Damn Nation” is nearly finished.  Right now we are in the mastering stage where all the levels and equalization get evened out.

The last recording session was an all night one, just me and my guitar in a studio somewhere in North Surrey from 10pm to 7am.  It was an awful night and here is why:

Making an independent rock CD - budgets.

Hey there.  Here I am on a cloudy Thursday morning in Vancouver.  I have been doing a lot of research lately on the budget for the new Fear Zero CD.  Well, technically it is not a fully “new” CD since we are only going to record 4 new tracks but as you will see, even this small of an amount of music costs big $$!

The first Fear Zero CD I made on money I had saved up teaching music for 4 years.  Throw in a credit line with a lot of favors and some lucky breaks as well as studio time late at night and voila, you have the first Fear Zero CD!
