Gracer Provide Update

Posted in Bands on June 26, 2009

Gracer recently provided a lengthy update on the status of the band's follow-up to 2006's Voices Travel:

I know we've been saying that "we're building a studio at our house" for about a year now, and well, we can stop saying that. We are extremely happy to announce that it is finally finished. We spent all day yesterday loading every piece of gear we have up to the studio. After setting everything up, Paul and I just kinda looked at it, looked at each other, and had a "holy shit" moment. This is something that we've been talking about for well over a year, and something both of us have always dreamed of having; a fully functional recording studio a staircase away. Soooooo..after a few computer and wiring tweaks, we will be ready to record the 30+ songs we've written since I moved here two years ago, and finally make a brand new Gracer album. Aside from playing a few shows here and there this summer, we will be spending every waking minute in the studio. We will be documenting the whole process and will keep you guys very up to date on the progress we're making. So bare with us just a little longer, we're getting to work as we speak. We hope you enjoy the outcome.
