To The Marrow - New Album Details!
Alright, I’ve been hesitating to do this, but I think I’ve finally gotten up the guts.
Here are some details on the new record.
Title: TO THE MARROW
Why is it called that? Well, first off - a few years ago, I was supposed to release a record called “To The Marrow” - but for a variety of reasons, ended up releasing Avalanche EP instead. So the idea was born a long time ago. And it has finally come into fruition.
The timing and concept worked out nicely because this is my most intimate record to date. Lyrically and musically, I have never been this honest before. I want people to feel a lot closer to me after this record.
Release: October 2010
I’m an independent artist and I don’t do a ton of promotion for my record releases, so I could literally release this record the day it is finished - if I wanted to. I hope to be done recording/arranging in May - and after mixing/mastering, the record will probably be done mid-summer. This record is very seasonal… and I don’t want people to hear lyrics like “spring will teach my heart to grow” and “it’s new years eve…” in July!!! Plus, three months lead time is good for doing a little press. Thus, the record will be released in October.
If things aren’t too crazy, I’m hoping to release a little something in between now and then. We’ll see how things go…
Anyhow… that’s the latest. If you have more questions for me about the record or ANYTHING ELSE - I just created a formspring.
AH! Don’t ask me anything too weird please…
xo,
Emily
