Having been together a month we got ambitious and decided to record a demo CD so we could land a few of the elusive brewery gigs in and around Missoula. With just a handful of rehearsals (only 2 with our fiddler Annalisa)we went into "the studio" and recorded 6 songs in about 3 hours, all playing live, 2-3 takes on each song.  This was the first thing we played that night, a newer original of Marks called Tornado.

Tornado

The 2nd tune on our new CD - a Steeldrivers cover. This is not a "for sale" disc, merely a tool to get some gigs, so we weren't overly concerned about recording all originals, or getting everything perfect. We'll save that for the next recording.
