All the members of Montalban Quintet have remained busy this past month on separate band and touring projects but several days have been booked for drum tracking this February. We are chipping away at the new songs and should have some new material tracked by the end of Spring 2013. It’s a slow process but at least it won’t take 5 years to complete like our debut album did.
At least I hope it won’t…
Just kidding. It definitely will shape up soon and we are excited about how things are shaping up. With a year’s worth of live shows under our belt the individual personalities of the band are starting to shape the Montalban Quintet sound. In the spirit of the great Duke Ellington, we are striving to draw upon the unique strength of each of the players and write in a way that allows them to support the overall direction of the band. It’s been a very interesting evolution since the beginning.
Stay tuned.
Still plugging away…
