Recording and studio updates from Lafayette, Indiana rock band June IND
Pandemic thwarts recording plans, June IND releases new music instead
Well, that escalated quickly. Remember this (June IND to return to The Bombshelter in March to record new music)? We’re supposed to be at the Bombshelter Recording Studio recording with Dan Precision right now…
Timeline update:
- Three weeks ago, we were still working on pre-production for the Vol. 3 tunes, planning how much food and bourbon to take to Chicago, etc.
- Two weeks ago, we decided to pump the brakes and hunker down.
- Last week we decided to release all of our Vol. 2 goodies.
- This week (like, now), that happens.
Stay safe, everyone. Sending the best of vibes to you, the folks out of work and the folks still out working. If it helps, here’s some boogie:
Music
Apple Music · Bandcamp · Spotify · YouTube
Video
Like Vol. 1, we collaborated with our artist friends Brandon Ahnert and Stacy Bogan to create new art and videos for the Vol. 2 tunes. The First Annual Meeting of Optimists Video Playlist has been updated HERE or you can check out the new videos below.
June IND to return to The Bombshelter in March to record new music
We’re returning to The Bombshelter in Chicago in March to record music for First Annual Meeting of Optimists Vol. 3 with Dan Precision!
To date, we’ve worked with Dan on #HillsterHipbilly (2015) and First Annual Meeting of Optimists Vol. 1 & Vol. 2 (2019).
June IND release is a ‘best albums of 2019’ pick in USA TODAY Network’s year-end music survey
We’re excited to work with Dan again and look forward to sharing the process and results.
Are you excited? Help us get there:
