This is the band's eighth record of original music to be released and the fourth to include drummer Chris Williams & singer multi-instrumentalist Karen Shealy. Karen co-wrote the song The 45 and also played bass, electric guitar/slide guitar and sang on several tunes. Chris played acoustic drums and acoustic percussion. VJ Jones sang lead and played guitars and bass along with various keyboards & melodica. The photo of the rabbit on the album cover was taken right outside of the room the band used for recording. As the sun was going down on a beautiful Sunday afternoon the animal stayed right on the grass as if he was waiting for his photo to be taken. After a few snaps he hung around for another 5 minutes and then hopped away towards some trees. He was very large and stayed calm while chewing on something. Altogether very Zen-like. All the songs are streaming on this site and the record download will be available at all the usual spots: iTunes, Amazon, Google Play and about 25 other sites. Download the album for $5.00 </span><a href="http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/cautioncat8" data-imported="1"><span style="color:#3366ff">http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/cautioncat8</span></a> </p>

Some musical, some not: Caution Cat were chosen for the GMP with a song titled "Avalon" but were not required to record it. The founders of the GMP chose "Just Give Me Your Good Times' after we submitted about 10 other demos for consideration. The Pacific Coast Highway is a nice thing to travel on. We found everyone on the West Coast to be very friendly and helpful in all our travels and dealings. Low humidity is great. Coconut water is good for vocal chords. Its relaxing to stare at Llamas & Alpacas. We saw the silver haired actor from Mad Men at LAX as we were leaving for Santa Barbara. "No worries" is a better way to say "no problem" Hot sauce as a morning breakfast condiment somehow works. One of the camera operators filming us recording at Star Hill Studio works with Zane Lamprey of the Three Sheets & Drinking Made Easy tv shows. The song California Dreamin' takes on a new meaning. At a boardwalk café we viewed a few dolphins playing in shallow water near the beach and some screenwriters working on a script at a nearby table. Christopher Tyng went way above the call of duty to get us to California & back safely. Its cool to have Vocorder on a song and make it work.

<p><span style="color:#3366ff">Sunday April 6th: Ryan Andersen the assistant engineer & fellow musician takes the band into a scenic little town for a 9am Sunday breakfast at The Longhorn Coffee Shop. The view of this area on the drive to town includes Vineyards, horse farms and stunning winding road views. Somebody at lunch yesterday mentioned David Crosby from Crosby Still & Nash lives around here but we saw no David sightings on the drive in. We had the best breakfast burrito in the world and tried to explain the Richmond music scene to Ryan over coffee. Sessions resumed around 10am and feel a lot lighter and calm with less people in on the sessions. We tracked lead & back-up vocals but then discovered the music tempo (126 BPM) is a bit too fast by comparing it to the original demo (120 BPM) Some computer finagling is done and we are back in business. Ryan sings a much needed harmony back-up and runs the board while I'm doing some crazy falsettos on a few parts. We are on a roll but there is no way we will be done by 6pm so a taxi service is hired for midnight so we can get back to Los Angeles via Santa Barbara to catch our flight out on Monday. Guitar overdubs are next up until 10:30PM. The studio's guitars i played for dubs included an Airline electric with P-90s, a G & L Tele and a rare 1950's Silvertone hollow body guitar thru a vintage Silvertone amp head. Kristin Tyng arrives in the studio with packed sandwiches for the ride to LA and has a listen to the playback of "Just Give Me Your Good Times" Our work is done but Chris & Ryan will finish some overdubs and mixing on other days. We pack our bags and say goodbye to the Tyngs (many thanks!) and make the ride back to Santa Barbara with Ryan. We meet the friendly couple from the car service at a Starbucks, say thanks & goodbye to Ryan and then head out on the highway to LAX in a huge roomy van a few minutes after midnight.</span></p>

<p><span style="color:#3366ff">Saturday April 5th: Up early with free time before breakfast with sunny but cool weather. Hard not to take photos of the beautiful surroundings. Yesterday's playing live for 5 or 6 hours to shape the tune was a good workout so I hope my voice holds up today for tracking some vocals. We start around 10 am and record all the takes live until 2pm with Ryan recording each one first to analog tape on a Studer reel to reel and then into the digital world. We meet a new person helping out today for the Grow Music Project sessions named Andre', a college intern who also films footage of the sessions. We now have takes to form a foundation for the overdubs. Today's lunch with the film guys and musicians is outside on the stone patio with the mountains as a nice backdrop. We have an excellent lunch made by the producer of the GMP Kristin Tyng, who also played a key part in choosing the song we are recording. The meal includes an oriental chicken salad and lemonade with homemade cookies for dessert. I could have a separate blog for how well the Tyngs fed and spoiled us. Movies and film-making are the subject for most of the meal so we are all fat & happy. After a fun but also daunting filmed interview session with Chris & I about Caution Cat, the GMP and our musical journey we meet a special guest who is coming in to do harmony vocals. Her name is Alix Macmillan-Fiedel from the band Ghost Tiger and she says she feels our pain about doing interviews since she has the same anxiety. Being interviewed about music is much harder than making it. Discussion on the backing vocal tracks is done and Alix works hard to help build the song. By 9PM we are done so a huge party of people head up to the Tyng's house for Pizza and a local brewed beer 805. We make a toast to all the artists and production people who have helped make this all such a good and productive time. After a late dinner we all saunter back down to the studio so the folks leaving can pack up film equipment & musical instruments. We say our goodbyes full of pizza and a few beers. Thanks to PJ for nailing the bass part and hipping us to life in Belgium, his home country. Also thanks to Josh & Drew who not only stuck cameras in our faces but made us laugh more than a few times. Thanks to Alix for her time & voice (on a Saturday night no less) Tomorrow will be a long day of tracking so caution cat crashes hard.</span></p>

<p><span style="color:#3366ff">Friday April 4: Waking up after a good nights sleep at 7am gives us 2 hours to shower & check out the beautiful Santa Ynez mountain surroundings, talk music & fiddle on the studio instruments downstairs. A 3 string cigar box guitar, a ukulele, classical & acoustic guitars and even an old acoustic piano that Charlie Chaplin once played (but that's another story) Breakfast at 9am in the Tyng family house, right up the hill, after taking some photos of the studio & farmland. We chat about music among other things with Chris Tyng & studio engineer Ryan Andersen at a giant kitchen table with a nice mountain view. A friend of Ryan's named PJ will play bass on the track and is on his way from Los Angeles. After breakfast we head down to the studio and start setting up instruments in one room so we can play the song Good Times live first & work on an arrangement. PJ arrives and fits right in to the scene with a great attitude & talent. Chris Tyng plays keyboards, sings & creates a cool new bridge for our song. Ryan records the work from the control room and we make many takes with vocals before lunch about 4 hours later (excellent homemade deli sandwiches) After lunch two film crew guys named Josh & Drew arrive and unload their equipment and set up lights (pros with much TV & movie experience and a great sense of humor) We continue playing the song and tweeking it. The film crew starts to film for the Grow Music Project web show as we rock out. Zico Coconut water is the drink of choice while working although the studio fridge is stocked with about 10 different beverages. PJ has to leave by 6pm for a gig in LA (a 2 hour drive!) and will be back tomorrow. Sometime after 7PM we stop for dinner and go to a local Mexican restaurant as a party of eight. The food & conversation are both great fun combined with margaritas. Back to the studio for more drum sound tweaking until about 11PM.</span></p>

<p><span style="color:#3366ff">Thursday April 3rd: Last night's bar hop is felt this morning but there is a great bistro up the road a bit with fresh coffee & bagels we are told. Breakfast outside in the sun on the bistro's patio is perfect. Today is take it easy day and we discuss the song we think we might do at the studio (Room Elephants) and then later sit on the boardwalk looking out into the Pacific, people watching and enjoying a lunch of fish & chips from The East Beach Grill. Sailboats, hang gliders, bikinis, skateborders/bike riders, sand & surf. I now understand why people love California. Later tonight we will meet songwriter producer Chris Tyng from the Grow Music Project for the first time. He picks us up at the hotel and takes us to dinner at The Seven Bar & Kitchen around 6PM to meet his friend & studio engineer Ryan who already has a table for us. They both agree we should record a different song called "Just Give Me Your Good Times" After dinner we drive about 40 minutes to his home & studio to meet his wife and producer of the GMP, Kristen and 1 of 2 sons and the family dog Ella. We then get a tour of the studio and outdoor area just a few walks down a stone stepped hill. Its a bit like heaven on earth packed with great modern & vintage equipment. The homestead also include four Alpaca and a Llama on a picturesque farm. Its dark out so we cant see the mountains in the far off distance. We are beat and go to sleep in private rooms by 11 pm on the second floor of Chris' Studio. Tomorrow we will start working on our song at 10am after a 9am breakfast.</span></p>

<p><span style="color:#99ccff"><span style="color:#3366ff">Weds April 2cd: Chris and VJ arrived in Los Angeles from Richmond on Weds April the 2cd and after a nice LAX lunch made their way via a travel bus up the scenic Pacific Coast Highway and on to Santa Barbara with the Pacific Ocean on the left and mountains on the right. We traveled at a time the traffic was low so the bus moved right along. Checked in at the hotel just a stones throw from the Pacific Ocean; Mountains behind us. We like it. Took a nice walk to the more happening part of town that included a swanky guitar/uke store named Guitar Bar, The Figueroa Mountain Brewery, a pizza joint (Barbarians?) with good local beers on tap, a meat market type bar with lots of pretty people and a .99 cents store. We didn't make it into the other 300 places as we were jet lagged, full on dinner and had a long walk back to the hotel. Karen could not make this trip so we miss her. We will do a toast to her for morning coffee. Tomorrow we go to Star Hill Studio for the Grow Music Project.</span></span></p>

For a collection of demos these cuts are a bit fancy with lots of overdubs to flesh out the arrangements. Stuff used for recording: A yard sale Casio keyboard (40 bux) for piano/synth and drum beats. A twenty dollar electric guitar purchased via Craig's List made by First Act Musical Instruments. Shure mic with stand from Amazon (37 smackaroos) & a borrowed Ibanez bass (Thanks Justin) A used Guitar Works acoustic guitar since traded in for a Fender Tim Armstrong Hellcat acoustic half way through sessions. Cut all the tracks on a Korg D3200 and made mixdowns to a Teac CD burner. Overall a fairly affordable way to make some music not counting the coffee expense. Hope you find a song you like and stay tuned for more songs to be added as they are finished and mixed.</span></span></span></p>

<p><span style="color:#339966"><img src="http://cautioncat.com/images/thumbs/fridaynightlights.jpg" class="size_orig justify_inline border_" alt="friday night lights" height="100" width="100" /> Caution Cat have a song titled "Kim OK" on the fourth season of NBCs "Friday Night Lights" The ballad is from the album "Between Songs" released back in 2008. This version of the song is actually the original demo but the song has since been re-recorded at Mimimum Wage Recording and is as of yet unreleased. The second season of the show had a song from the Eighteen record called "Number Two" (Different Day) on it. This upbeat tune was all Loops & keyboards but no guitars; a precursor to Viva Bird maybe. The band celebrates its 5th anniversary this month working on a new album.</span></p>
