Free Milk Seminar

I think I'm going to lock in Free Milk Seminar as this album's official title. The title is self-evident within the convoluted context of this particular set of recordings.

The Maryland Trilogy


The deal here is three albums, three "records" (literal records of time and place) of my post Tripgrass time in the mid-Atlantic. The Maryland Trilogy is a compilation of the Kingdom of Leisure experience (rehearsal recordings, live recordings, etc.), the short Judge Brennan period, and new attempts at sound exploration.

There have been complaints of "republicans on my albums," but it's a reflection of the time. I try to represent personal headspace in time and place.

The Bren becomes more of a presence, obviously.

And, I begin to reach out to new instruments and technologies.

I've set the first two tracks (in terms of time and the majority of mixing):

  1. Butterflies 3:33
  2. Three Wise Men 8:00
Next week, I'll finish trimming and time-setting, as above. Then it's the rest of the world of post.
