I got to go up to Colfax on Tuesday to record another song with Sherri Youngward and Danny Donnelly in Danny’s rad barn studio. It was super cool! Sherri’s Bible verse album is shaping up well and this was the last song to get added to the pile. I’d heard a lot about the amazing Danny Donnelly and his barn and it was all true! Great guy, amazing guitar player, great ear, all that. Plus, he has the most crazy/awesome 4 year old daughter you’ve ever seen, a really mellow little boy and a wife that can seriously cook. (Pear pie… freaking amazing) Cred to Sherri for all the photos with me in them.

And, of course, since I flew into oakland for the night, I squeezed in a little pizza and dairy ice cream run with my mom and sister!

This dairy place has been around FOREVER… I think people used to come here for their groceries. I mainly know it as a great place for ice cream in old town Pleasanton.

The dulcimer didn’t make it on the song, but it sure looked amazing.

cred to sherri on this one too. This was the passage we were making the song to

Bible + grandma’s reed organ =  ideas for an album cover at 1:30am.
