Tomorrow’s the day the new song comes out. I’ll talk about the song itself then, and how and why I think it answers SJ Tucker’s rallying call. But I wanted to throw out some thanks and acknowledgements here today.<\/p>\n

First, thanks to Kathryn Tewson for the guest vocals. She hasn’t worked close-mic before, or much really with this kind of music but I<\/eM> think she sounds good, and she said she thinks she’s “never sounded that cool ever in my whole life” and that’s good enough for me.<\/p>\n

Second, thanks to Alexander James Adams, for both chorus vocals and surprise fiddle! He surprised me with a recording when I was only asking for vox, and that fiddle track is all over the song now. That post I made a couple of days ago, “This seems unlikely<\/a>,” with a picture of my Surprise Fiddle Part? The line above<\/em> mine is labelled “AJA fiddle,” and that would be Alec. Lots goin’ on there.<\/p>\n

Third, thanks to Klopfenpop, for listening to roughmixes and being the only person who caught me being out of tune in one of the harmonies for a bit under 40ms underneath hard consonants which were keeping my attention distracted. Goddamn, Klop, you have good ears.<\/p>\n

And fourth, Anna, for joining that big thick chorus we have for this thing. This song needed a big group, and she helped it get there.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow. Or tonight, midnight Pacific time, if you want to stay up. Watch Bandcamp, ’cause the blog post will be later in the morning. But Bandcamp – that’ll be midnight. We’ve got a torch, and we’re gonna light it up.<\/p>\n
