LITTLE MS CUTTHROAT VIDEO WINS DRAKE AWARD

The Annual Video Awards put on by The Drake Magazine were held a few weeks back down in Denver, and the music video we made with cinematographer-extraordinaire Justin Lubke of Story Road Films made the Top 10, and then was the winner for Best Humor.

Check out the video at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DxqNLeBqFs

Thanks to Tom Bie at The Drake and to everyone who was a part of making the video.

FISHING MUSIC II, The Sweet Sound of The Reel...




Now that Fishing Music II has been released, Ben and I stole away to the Dillon area for some fishing. It turned out to be more than 'just fishing' and instead arguably the Best Day of Trout Fishing Ever. Private tiny spring creek, wild fish averaging a measured 19", all on hoppers, sight fishing. Wow is the most family-appropriate thing I can think to say.

It's true, almost a year in the making, Fishing Music II is finally released today. Thanks to everyone was a part of making this happen, and we're looking forward to hearing from our listening audience once it starts getting out on the air (ear?) waves.


Now, it's time to head out for a little fishing...

CD Days Away!


After almost of year of work, we're mere days away from the release of Fishing Music II. It's going to be available for sale approximately July 6, it's looking like, but don't quote me since I don't have cd's in hand yet. We're very excited to hear what people will have to say when they hear it -- looking forward to that.

Of course in the mean time there's some good fishing to be done, so we'll be out on the water until the cd shows up on the doorstep in just a matter of days...

Waiting for the CD, Fishing the Big Hole




Since the Fishing Music II cd is in print production and due out July 1, Ben and I decided to take a little trip over to the Big Hole. We went with Justin Lubke, friend and cinematographer who shot the Little Miss Cutthroat video with us (also out July 1).

We timed it out well to hit the salmonflies, and caught some really nice fish, and all thanks to our brand newest lucky fishing hats, pictured here. You'll be able to buy these and other cool FMII schwag when the cd is available. Can't help you with the catching, but they make the fishing that much more enjoyable...

Master Complete, Packaging Into Production



After months of work, the mastering down at Airshow in Colorado is done, and the packaging being sent off to the production house. This means we are pretty much set to have the new cd in hand on July 1! I think in the end we're very pleased with the songs, and all the hard work paid off -- but we'll have to wait for our listening audience to confirm that. In the mean time, we're making sure to get our radio station and reviewers lists together, and be ready for when they land on our doorstep. Doesn't mean we aren't going to get a bit of fishing in -- the annual trip to the Big Hole around father's day isn't far off at all...

Runoff is On, Mastering is Next

Warm weather finally hit the Northern Rockies with a bang, and the runoff is in full swing. That's good news, because we need some non-fishable time to do the last tweaks before Ben heads down to Colorado for mastering with master masterer, David Glasser, at Airshow.

Fortunately David was able to get in a day on the Big Hole and Ruby rivers before they blew out, and the fishing was terrific. Thanks to the folks at Ruby Springs Lodge http://www.rubyspringslodge.com/ for a fabulous stay and guides Joe and Jake for putting up with our crew!

Based on where we are now, looking like end of June cd release date -- hard to believe it's almost here...
