We took out a wall, moved the doorway, and insulated under the stairs. We tested the our sound-proofing job with a snare drum. It was audible on the main floor, but in the upstairs bedrooms it was almost silent. Quiet enough I could sleep through it.
DAY 1




DAY 2


We’ll finish up next week, and have our first recording session, 2 songs with the City Sweethearts, booked for Tuesday, August 31st.
