Recording Has Officially Begun for Upcoming My Own Machine Release

Hey all!

We've officially begun tracking for our upcoming release "All Day Stare" and things are already coming together better than we could have imagined. Drummer Ryan Brown finished tracking on Thursday at Trace Ritter's Ritterhouse Music and Brent Hoffort and I laid down all the guitars (minus some acoustics) over the weekend at The Guesthouse with Doug Heffernan, who is co-producing with Brent.
