two days ago, i was handed a hard drive that contains a new 10-song octoberman record. it was co-produced by jim guthrie and features the regular toronto oct band (me, marshall, tavo, shaun, randy) plus lots of friendly guests including jimmy g, dave from fembots, andy and nace from the two-minute miracles, jeremy from the minotaurs and melissa from the wilderness of manitoba. we recorded the beds and vocals with andy magoffin at the house of miracles in london, ontario and did the rest of it in our toronto apartments. it was mixed by the man, howie beck. i’m not sure when it will be released yet.. hopefully sooner than later. to complicate matters we also just finished a 7 song ep so maybe you’ll even hear that first. either way, we hope you eventually enjoy these songs half as much as we enjoyed recording them. now the work begins.
love!
