And now for an update on the progress of the band, songs, recording, and other things

I am glad to report that we might be able to start recording soon!!!
Beth's uncle is going to be helping us out by letting us use some of his equipment and editing program. We are planning to do a bit of recording next weekend, the last in October. Be on the look out for a first official song!!

On another note, we have some new equipment, Bethlehem's  new amp! It is very exciting, because before we were borrowing an amp..... It has several hookups so we should be able to plug in the microphone, piano, electric guitar, and maybe the violin! Gail has a cord that she uses to tune her dulcimer; the cord clips onto her dulcimer and senses the vibrations of the strings. Because it senses the vibration, it can be clipped onto the bridge of the violin, instantly making an electric violin!!

No new songs have been written, but several drafts are almost done!

Also, what do you think of a short Christmas Album of about 5-7 songs? What songs would you like to see us do for a Christmas album?

Greetings, friends; 'tis I, Beth the Great (also known as the music writer for the phenomenal band that is IMP), and self-recognized narcissist (get it?). So naturally, all written topics will be pertaining to, or completely about.... me! (Then again, what else is a blog supposed to be about?)
Something new and exciting will be happening (hopefully) soon - IMP will be in the recording studio within about a month! So far, we have had only one experience with the process, thanks to my uncle Chris, a part-time music producer. With some of his technical help, a mini-studio will exist in my room - all digital at the moment, but that will eventually change. That is, when we have more, erm... resources.
