Howdy howdy! What's going on? Well, quite a bit actually. We had a photo shoot on August 2nd, prior to the Railhead show. We posted some of the photos on our Facebook page www.facebook.com/sanddollarrodeo Fair warning though, we are not male models! By the way, if you follow the band and haven't "liked" the band's Facebook page, could you please do us a favor and give us a like? We would really appreciate it, and by doing that, you will have access to the latest news and happenings.
I would also like to give a special shout out to my dad, Phillip Frazier, for the awesome pics! He did a fantastic job, especially considering our limited modeling experience, ha ha!
This past Sunday, we had a planning meeting for the new album. The album will still sound like SDR, but I'm getting the feeling that it's going to have a much different vibe from the GPS album. That's a good thing though! For one, Josh, Ken, and Trey will be playing and contributing on it. The first album was just Roy and I. Our live sound is a little more raw and organic sounding. I see us being able to capture this a little easier, with the whole band participating.
The live show schedule will slow down through September and October. We all work full time jobs. As such, we do not have the luxury of recording during the week and playing shows on the weekends. Most of the recording sessions will have to take place on the weekends.
We currently have three songs, that are ready to be recorded. We plan to start sessions on these very soon. The name of the songs are Good Time, Population You and Me, and Old Aledo. Good Time made it's debut, in the live show, back in March of this year. Roy and I have played Old Aledo a few times acoustically, but it made its full band debut at the Railhead show on 8/2/14. Population You and Me also made it's debut at the Railhead show on 8/2/14. I'm really excited about all 3 songs. We will keep you updated on the album, as we progress, so follow us on Facebook for the latest blog posts and updates.
As you can see, I'm again posting on an odd day. I usually post on Thursdays, but the last few weeks have been a little different. Last week we had our two year anniversary. It fell on a Monday, and I wanted to mark the occasion. This week the schedule is again a little odd, as we have a show this Thursday out at the Lake Weatherford Marina. This is an acoustic show, not full band. Roy and I will be out there with our acoustic geetars, doing stripped down versions of the SDR catalog. Down strum is at 7pm. We played out there in May, and had a blast! They have plenty of ice cold beverages and some of the best burgers that I have ever had. It really is a great atmosphere, so come on out and kick off your weekend a day early! The marina is located at 210 W. Lake Drive, Weatherford, TX 76087. For more information, be sure and check out their website located here www.lakeweatherfordmarina.com
Ok folks time for me to fly, or drive that is. Roy has allowed me to take a little vacation, next week, to sunny Florida. I'll be doing the Clark Griswold thing and taking the family cross country. Thankfully, there will be no Aunt Edna or family truckster involved, but I'm sure some smelly feet will crop up from the back seat at some point. Thanks for reading and I'll talk to you in a couple of weeks.
