Jeremy has driven a stake in his new album, and it will come out on May 8, 2007. It doesn’t have a name yet; he’s still working on it:
The album has 12 songs, a string section, woodwinds, brass and orchestral percussion. What started off last August as a fairly mid-tempo to slower collection of songs has morphed into a full-fledged folk-classical-electronica/experimental album with songs that move as fast as 145 beats per minute. (that’s very fast for an acoustic folkie like me.)
Folk music you can dance to. Or if you don’t dance…you can groove to it. Either way, there is energy on this project unlike any of my previous albums. I’m VERY EXCITED with what we’ve got and CAN’T WAIT for you to have it.
Bryan and I heard some in-process stuff back in October, and … well, I was excited by what I heard. Not only is Jeremy branching out musically, but he’s working on breaking new ground lyrically. I dunno about y’all, but … I’m excited.
And yes, if you’re counting, that means that you’ll get a new record from Derek and from Jeremy just a week apart.
