A couple of months ago, Hum and I were playing a Christmas carol called, "Were You There On that Christmas Night?", ever heard of it? It's one of our favorites. We were working on it for a different project, but we had so much fun we thought, "Heck. We should record our own Christmas album!". And so we did.
Hum oversaw the production of the album. He recorded guitars in our tiny bathroom at home, layered effects, and made sure everything sounded extra groovy. I oversaw the album art and production, and it would be easy to argue that I had a little too much fun. I felt like I was in 3rd grade again. I built a little diorama-like set up with fabric, cardboard, and ugly little plastic glittery snowflakes. Here is a music video showing the in-process album artwork with the third track from the album, "Angels We Have Heard on High". Enjoy.
Our blog is a place where I can document our art and music, talk about the creative process, show off our dog, and post rediculous things. I like to use and abuse the privilage of being able to publish anything I want to on the world wide web. We'd love to have you follow along with us; just don't say I didn't warn you.
