Recording

These are some of the people that make up the bands for our church services named Illuminate & Resonate. They have been recording last week and all this week so they can make a CD for our church. There has been so much hard work put into this by everyone.

I am so proud of my husband. This is his love, making music and allowing others to experience lyrics that are biblical and encouraging.
I am so thankful to God that He allows my husband to express himself musically this way. There will be 6 songs. Drew wrote 4 of the songs just this last year.

Drew and Tim Bechtel have been in the "recording studio" non-stop. They have taken each part & dedicated many hours/ days to each part. Tim has been awesome directing the sound board and knows so much about how that massive thing all works together. Emily (Tim's wife) and I have been taking meals to them. They built a room up just for this recording in the church, and it's filled with sound breakers and all kinds of things I don't know the names of.

The usual scene when I come to see Drew is this: the sound board, Drew and Tim, and whoever else wants to listen in, headphones on, heads bobbing, heads shaking or nodding, thumbs up and downs, LOUD guitar with the amps up, coffee cups all around, guitar cases, pieces of microphones strewn over the floor, and the leftover meal of the day burning in a crockpot.

It already sounds SO GOOD and it hasn't been mastered or EQ'd at all!!! SO EXCITED to hear the finished product!!
So be looking for the music on Itunes come this summer tentatively!!!!!
