The end of summer always seems to be a a bit of a slow period for us. Time to rest, relax, regroup. September follows with lots o' mayhem that usually sneaks up on us. This year we are especially glad to get back into the swing of things. Jenn's unexpected surgery in July reminded us both what a blessing it is to have the ability to work and pursue our goals. It is easy to get caught up in the stresses, without realizing what a pleasure it is just to be in the race!

We have been working hard for the last month on the video footage that we shot in August at the Barnes amphitheatre. Last week I had a track from the performance mixed with John Keane in Athens. We'll be posting a video of this song and track soon. We weren't sure if we would release the video or not, but it has turned out so well that we'll be releasing it as a DVD as soon as it is finished. Hopefully sometime in November.

We have also been working on a series of performances that we will be doing in Russia next week. The final details have just come together and we will be performing in Moscow and St Petersburg. The performances will be in conjunction with Skoda Automobiles (division of Volkswagen) and the release of the "Superb". It's a sedan that converts from business sedan during the week to "pleasure vehicle" during the weekend. The promoters thought our music we go with this presentation as a fusion of classic and modern styles. We are super excited (and a little nervous) about this opportunity! We'll post pictures here from the trip.
