Milkshake’s Having A Great Day!
I recently received a copy of the new Milkshake CD, Great Day. I have loved everything I’ve ever listened to from Milkshake in the past, so was excited to listen to this one.
Here’s what the band has to say about this fabulous disc:
In keeping with the Milkshake belief that one never stops evolving/growing, we present Great Day.
This is the first Milkshake album that is actually Milkshake the Band. It’s not just Lisa and Mikel and a bunch of studio musicians. Play! featured the guys singing, but we still used outside musicians, and we all played our parts at different times. On Great Day, it’s the band playing in one big room at the same time, except for vocal and guitar overdubs. And we have a few special guests — our friends Grammy-Award winners Cathy Fink, Marcy Marxer and Rodney Henry of the Glenmont Popes.
We tracked Great Day in six twelve-hour days, and it was a lot of fun. Lots of different musical styles here, as on past albums, but the subjects are a little deeper, the guys are singing a little sweeter and everyone was trying new things, thanks in part to Tor Hyams’ intense, encouraging production style, and in part to everyone really being…well…a band, which is a lot like a family. Enjoy…and have a great day!
Here’s what my kids have to say about it:
“Let’s put Milkshake in again, Mommy!”
Play that one again, Mommy! Let’s Shake It Up!”
Don’t forget to bring Milkshake in the van!”
And because, in the usual Milkshake style, it’s actually really good music that’s easily enjoyed by kids and parents alike, I always oblige.
Win it! One commenter will win a copy of Great Day. To enter, comment before noon mst on September 28th.
