Back to the Studio - NEVAH Mixin'

We are all quite excited to head back into the Main Street Music Studios to start the mix down and editing of our first CD.  As you can imagine with 8 people in the band ideas abound as to how this should sound, especially when considering the diverse musical genres we love and which vary greatly from one member to the next.  The two things we all agree on is that the vocals need to be out front and when someone is playing a solo there needs to be volume separation from the rest of the instruments, after that it truly becomes a matter of personal taste.

Here is where it gets really interesting as you have Ed, a big band lover, think Duke Ellington, Richard, a contra dance aficionado, Hal, a folk/Broadway Musical devotee, Larry, a gypsy/swing admirer, Dick, a rock ala Rolling Stones fan, Jack, a country rock/western swing proponent, Dr. Eric, a Grateful Dead jam band follower, and lastly Phil, a Do-Wop/R&B enthusiast, hence the possible dilemma becomes apparent, yet as NEVAH always does "we can work it out." or is it as the song continues
"gotta see it my way?"

However it ends up you know we will put our heart and soul into it, have a good time, and not take ourselves too seriously.  So until next time "Stayed Tuned"
