The past two weeks have been fun, exciting, and bursting with musical creativity and teamwork. At our new location at Echo Mountain Recording Studio in Asheville, NC we were proud to collaborate with two outstanding artists as they recorded separate projects. Chris Velan and Lora-Faye each spent a week at Echo Mountain recording exciting new material.

Lora-Faye was welcomed to Echo Mountain as the grand prize winner of the 2012 Mountain Stage NewSong Contest. She was selected from more than 2,000 entries from last year’s contest, and as a part of her prize she recorded a fully-funded album at Echo Mountain Recording Studios with hit producer, Iestyn Polson, who has worked with the likes of David Grey, Patti Smith, and David Bowie. The album will be released on the NewSong Recordings label in 2013.

Chris Velan also worked with producer Iestyn Polson during his time at Echo Mountain. As a part of a New Year’s resolution to put our more recorded material in 2013, Chris and Iestyn spent a few days in the studio recording Chris’ new album (“The Long Goodbye”) with the hopes of capturing lightning in a bottle. Tracking and mixing feverishly, friends and fellow musicians worked hard to bring out and record their best in the rising musical mecca of Asheville, NC. We look forward to bringing this new release to you soon.
