Dec 2007
Signing off until '08!
I am heading off to the secure, undisclosed location to celebrate the holidays and ring in the new year. Thanks to everyone who visited The Workshop on 2007. It was a great year with alot of great music being made. I'm already looking forward to 2008, as I have some really cool projects coming in during the first quarter of '08, several of which have Nate Sabin's name attached to them!

As we sign off for '07, Downhere continues to climb the charts with "How Many Kings", which was into the top 20 the last time I checked. The Dynamites are still selling like hotcakes, and gearing up for another trip overseas. Sara Groves continues to amaze, and her new cd has been very well received. Andrew Peterson's cd will wrap up after the first of the year, and it is a monster!

Lots of other great projects came thru the door, so be sure to check them out; Joe Rogness, Sarah Bauer, Jordan Critz, Blake Bollinger, Mike Himes, Little Big Town, Rick Barron, Circleslide, Misty Edwards, Luke Wood, After The Chase, Lanae' Hale, Tara Graham, and probably several others I can't think of right now.

Merry Christmas to all and a Happy New Year! Come see me in '08 and bring some great music!!!

Cheers,

T
Wrapping it up...
Things are beginning to wind down for the year around here. I'm tying up a few loose ends before heading off to the secure, undisclosed location for a while - returning in time to kick off the new year with some mixes for Nate Sabin, and a few other cool things on the horizon.

In the new Esquire Magazine, the Dynamites are included in an article as having on the the best songs of 2007 that you have "probably not heard" - I'd have to agree! If you haven't heard them, check them out!

Downhere continues climb up the radio charts with "How Many Kings?". This is a song we recorded up in Washington State last year, and overdubbed and mixed at my studio. It's got a great, classic Christmas feel to it - listen for it. Or, better yet, call and request it!

Later,

Evel Knievel - R.I.P.
I used to run my Evel Knievel wind-up motorcycle all over the house when I was kid. That thing was heavy, destructive, and full of lead parts and lead paint - the way toys should be! We would also set-up jumps and ramps all over our neighborhood for Evel Knievel-type stunts on our bikes, and Evel Knievel-type wipeouts as well... And this was before we knew what a bicycle helmet was! Who would've thought that cancer would have killed him, and not that jump over the fountains at Caeser's Palace in Las Vegas!
