FIRE DOG: BLOG

I recently sent out an email telling you of FIRE DOG's plans to make a recording with Jason Rook at Penny Studios. All the while I had been hearing several local musicians suggesting Jason McEntire and Sawhorse Studios in South City.

A week before we were scheduled to begin work on our project, I received a message from Jason Rook saying that the Penny Studios was closing : ( and that our session would be cancelled. We were seriously dissappointed as we were excited to work with Jason Rook in the unique setting of Penny Studios.

That same day, however, we played a show at The Off Broadway, and we were loading drums. Brandon Manitoba had two sawhorses in his car that he stored on the side of my house so that we could load the drums. SAWHORSE?

I took it as a sign and met with Jason McEntire at Sawhorse Studios the next week. We loved the vibe of the space and of our new producer.

Jason McEntire has worked with locals such as Ludo, The Feed, and Son Volt. He was also recently voted best recording studio engineer in St. Louis by RFT.

We will be tracking at Sawhorse October 25 and 26 for phase one of the project. We plan press a limited number of 12 inch vinyl records entitled "YOUR HEART IS A MUSCLE" to be released around Christmas time, en-sha-la! Continue to check in for UPDATES ...

Check out these awesome shows! The money is going toward a new studio project with the working title "Your Heart is a Muscle." We are very excited to start recording our new songs, so come out and roll with it! Stay tuned for more ...

A gigantic ARCH transmitter of LIGHT thoughts broadcasts to the galaxy's edge, where six peaceful creatures hear the Wizard's message. The planet is trembling from the loss of The Great Storygatherer. The people have forgotten how to lay their own stories to rest. And so the discontent builds, blocking people's hearts. Saint Louis artists expose their alter-egos and super POWERS so that these changes make us LIGHT.

We had a great time as the openning act for Nashville artist Garrison Starr at her STL CD Release! Thanks to all who came OUT!
