Hi,
everybody,
As we prepare for our next chapter in the Drivers summer
tour adventure ,the temperature outside is in the triple
digits. Here in the Natural state of Arkansas, we topped
out at 104 yesterday! This tour will be our longest,
taking us first into Iowa, then up into Canada, back
down into Minnesota, then out west - Phoenix, Vegas,
Taos, Albuquerque, then on to numerous California dates.
We just finished the final tracking proceedure for a
new studio CD. Starting at Tony's Treasure's Studio
in Cadiz,Ohio and finishing here at Winterwood studios
here in Eureka Springs where we were blessed by a brilliant
performance on keys and vocals provided by the one and
only Ernie Cate of The Cate Bros. (He helped me write
this one and,of course, sang it beautifully).
Now, the project will make the trip to Memphis to be
mixed by my favorite engineer, Dawn Hopkins, who I have
worked with so many times with in the past.
You may have noticed a large, new FACEBOOK icon on the
page here, which will take you over to the FB fan page
where we can have a chat now and then, or post pictures,
videos or whatnot. Many thanks go out to the folks that
viewed the STUDIO CAM and made a donation to BLUES FOR
A CURE! We had fun making this new record and hope you
all had fun watching the process.
Gary Brinkley and I are still working along with the
folks at JOE BARDEN ENGINEERING to finish up the design
for a new signature series guitar and hope to make it
available to the public soon. Stay tuned and we will
let you know when this guitar, the new cd and other
things become available and, don't forget, if you haven't
already done so, please sign up for the news letter
below so YOU can have first hand knowledge of the release
dates of everything we have to provide you, our valued
fan!
Check the list of dates below and find the nearest gig(s)
to you and come join us on the Drivers HOT HOT HOT tour.
STAY COOL AND WE WILL SEE YOU SOON
JIMMY AND THE DRIVERS
