Day 3 has been the most productive day so far.

We started off at 10:00 with rehearsing that one track that we never rehearsed at home but made it on the list for the album based on the demo Dan made at home. The song is called “Why, When & How”. We opened the curtains in Studio and had the beautiful northern morning sun in our faces while rehearsing. And we’re making good progress, the song is coming together really well. We’re actually gonna try to put down the basic tracks to that one tomorrow.

After that early rehearsing session we listened to the last recordings of last night together with Kalle before we then started working on the basic tracks for three more songs.

We did “Chain Reaction” first – this is one of the “older” “new” songs, so this one was pretty quick. After we nailed it, Kalle took us downtown for lunch in a really lovely old marketplace. We had a traditional swedish fish meal with mashed potatoes and lingonberries. It was really great to get out of the studio for a change. Don’t get us wrong, we’re having the time of our lives, working on our upcoming album, but being in the studio for 14 hours three days in a row makes a one hour lunchbreak in the city feel like vacation.

After lunch we recorded the basic tracks to “No Monkey on my Back”, which turned out to be a lot harder to nail than we thought. But in the end we did it. In the evening we worked out a groovy songs called “Falling right Down” – we nailed THE Take at around 22:15.

So, now, we’re all drinking a White Russian and enjoying the last hours of that day. Cheers!
