Abe and I have been writing some new songs, as well as working on HV songs and some new covers … We hope to be gigging around the area within the next few weeks or so.

As far as the studio goes… We have been working on soundproofing the walls, because we really don’t want the cops showing up during our first recording session. So, once that is done, we’ll paint the walls and lay down the hardwood flooring, and we will be pretty close to finished with ‘er.

There’s a bit of a gospel feel in the Hungry Villagers’ folk-rock sound, too, in Abraham’s resonant vocals and the way his brothers blend their voices in harmony. The band’s single, “Tree Full of Ghosts,” has a propulsive backbeat framing strummed acoustic guitar, atmospheric electric guitar and chugging bass. Powerful stuff.

Abe and I are going to start playing shows in the area after we have some time to adapt.

We hope to help build and finish our Dad’s home recording studio as soon as we can, so we can get in and record some new material… We’ll also be working on HV stuff simultaneously as Jake and Ferrick will be doing the same in Houston.

I’m getting really excited about writing some fresh music.

Will keep you updated.

Half of the Villagers (being Dave and I) have relocated to the hills of Georgia, bordering
Tennessee, close to Chattanooga, where we will be setting up a recording studio with our father. The release date for the Villagers Debut has been slated for January 2010, with some of it to be recorded at Tierra Studios in Houston, and some of it in Georgia. We are all excited with what is happening, and inspiration is coming from all around us. We just have to be ready to catch it.

They’re also crafty with tempo, sending their songs into interesting directions.”
