A Contest of Wits!
Hey folks-
Recording this past weekend went well, with violin added to Call of the Waters and Raise a Glass, and bass added to a couple songs not yet posted. This Wednesday I'll be recording some viola for Raise a Glass and hopefully have all the tracking done ('cause my computer is running out of space and processing power to play this stuff.) I'll have more audio to post soon but for now I wanted folks to be aware of the new Piñataland contest. The rules are simple
1) Record a cover of a Piñataland song. Audio, video, whatever. Recording quality doesn't matter. It doesn't necessarily have to be from one of our albums. Could be you just heard it live. We'll provide chords/lyrics to any songs on request.
2) Send us a copy of your version by the end of May.
3) We'll post all the entries on our website and facebook page.
4) The maker of our favorite version of one of our songs gets to come into the studio with us to help produce a track on the upcoming album.
It's really that simple. So don't be shy. And don't be afraid to make the song your own. As people who regularly change chords and/or lyrics when we cover songs (in evidence here and here) we're all for hearing different takes on our stuff.
cheers,
dave

Hey Dave,
Question - I could swear that I read of a closing date for this competition, but now I can't find mention of one. Can you clarify if you're time-limiting this entertaining diversion?!
Ta!
Chris.
