We were supposed to record yesterday (Sunday) afternoon but Coop cancelled our session on account of the weather being too beautiful to work inside. I'm pretty sure that wouldn't happen in Nashville! It was great having the afternoon off to hang out with the family and almost kill myself on our new trampoline...
Today we went "the distance" (6 hours - which is about all you can take) and finished up all of the background vocals. It's a big deal to me because it means that my vox are done! It was an interesting process as Coop's ear really helped me fine-tune the harmony parts and prevent them being too predictable or interfering with the melody. He's got an particularly great ear for vocal parts.
I would often only hear one harmony part to the melody and then, after recording that harmony part, would hear a 2nd or 3rd harmony part in relation to hat we had just recorded. We ended up recording 2 or 3 harmony parts for each track just to give us options as we head into the mixing stage of the project.
Tomorrow we should finish up all of the keyboard parts and then it's on to mixing!
