My wife Kim is a very talented Irish musician. I recorded her playing some tunes with a guitarist and bodhran drummer a couple years ago. School prevented me from finishing the disk till now. We finished the album with an arrangement I wrote of “Will the Circle be Unbroken”, and a couple modern Irish vocal tunes.
Anyway, I’m cutting a few extra guitar parts with Scotty Reeves, as well as re-recording a couple fiddle parts. It should be finished and released by May.
In the meantime: I’ve been experimenting with some photography/graphic design ideas for the disk, which will be called “the Circle”.
This image is my favorite for the back cover.
It’s exactly what it looks like: a snail shell I shot with a long lens. I textured it with some old paper.
