I know I know, it's taking a long time! Final tweaks on the mixes are being done and the album will be out this month! Thanks everyone for the pre-orders, look for your copy in the mail soon!
I am jamming with the fellas at www.squaregrouper.net all month, check out www.mattfarr.com for exact dates.
A very special THANK YOU to everyone who braved the cold weather last night and came out to the promotional show for my new CD. It's never that cold here in SoFla! Regardless, we had an amazing time playing music for you, and showcasing the new music!
I need to say a special thank you to the Grouper for hosting the event as well as the band Craig Stevens, Craig Barnette, Eric Brigmond, and Pete Winders who were amazing as usual. Also I want to say thank you to Chris Mason and Vic Russo for their amazing job with the sound system, you guys made it sound great out front as well as on stage.
Stay tuned everyone for the official release of the new album, those of you who bought the advanced purchase last night can expect your copy in the mail before the music hits the streets. Thanks again for everyone's support!
Hello, hello everyone out there, I hope you have come back to check in with the blog update. Phase one of recording the new solo album is in the books. We had a great time laying down the tracks, not only was it musically sounding great but everyone involved was super cool and digging it! The ten tracks need some finishing touches and mixing, then hopefully we will have a release sometime in Dec. Otherwise fall is here, the surf is picking up, the weather is cooling down, the BBQ griller is built, enjoy your days and be sure to check back again soon for more info on the upcoming album.
October will be an exciting month everybody, I will be going into the studio to begin recording my self-titled solo album. As you can see from the site, the album artwork by Matt Bross is already being put into motion, the site is getting geared up, and I am really looking forward to working on this new music. I am going to try and document the process each step of the way and throw up some video on the blog. Thanks for everyone's support and keep coming out to see Vanilla Monk at the Square Grouper! More to come soon!
What's up everyone, I have started a new blog section on my site to post news regarding shows, recordings, everyday nonsense, and more! I hope to also have special features on new songs I am working on, gear that I am using or that the band is using, picture updates, useless information, random stories, and more.
Alright, so this is page one, entry one, of the new MattFarr.Com blog. I hope you will visit frequently. Feel free to comment or share your thoughts, otherwise hope to see you at a show real soon.
