So last Thursday, John Reilly met up with our Producer Andy Hunt in NYC.  Andy flew up from Nashville to sit in on the mastering session with Greg Calbi at Sterling Sound.  All the songs were mixed and just need the final mastering touches.  Here's some video from the day...

So the album is 99% completed!  So close, and the final 1% is the toughest. We're going to make a little changes here and there with the sounds and then send it off to get manufactured. All the artwork is completed by Mr. Matthew Bomberger.  The art is taking a slightly different twist that While I was on Earth, but it definitely fits the album conceptually. 

& by the way,

Last Saturday we played in the Autumn Blaze Battle of the Bands.  The winner got a slot opening for Toby Mac, Barlow Girl, Thousand Foot Krutch on the main stage at Autumn Blaze 2007, held at the Continental Airlines Arena (where the NJ Nets play).  There were 4 other AMAZING bands (Faith's Child, John the Raptist, Fleece and Just Passing Thru).  We had the 5th slot and played to a growing crowd on the beach.  It seemed like people were coming out of the water to check out what that crazy violin/electric guitar mix was....

At the end of the day, they announced the winners.  And we are happy and humbled to announce that we WON!  We were shocked and amazed and completely honored.  All the other bands were great.  GO CHECK EM OUT.  We are sooo excited to be playing at Autumn Blaze 2007.  God has definitely opened these doors for us to play in these great festivals.  We can't wait to share our music with the multitudes!
