We’re working on releasing a CD and have some songs up on our myspace: http://www.myspace.com/bostrombrothers

What do you think?

hey, wow! those were amazing… relaxing.
how many tunes are you planning to put on the cd?
and btw, i like your version of the minstrel boy.

fantastic well done indeed :smiley:

And you’re only 14, Jordan? And up in the thumb of Michigan? Nice going, lads, that’s quite a talented family band. And your whistling is very musical. What’s your instrument?

To my ear, I could do with less drum in your mixes, or at least EQ out the treble “thwack” a bit. Otherwise, a nice blend overall.

:thumbsup:

Nice stuff! Very well engineered! I love the guitar sound on the first track. For my personal taste, there’s a bit much reverb and such on the minstrel boy. Other than that, I think it’s very nicely produced.

Wow. That was very nice. Keep up the good work.

You rock. Well done! :smiley:

Thanks! :slight_smile: We’re putting 15 songs on the CD. :slight_smile: Thanks!

Thanks! :slight_smile:

Yup! :slight_smile: Why thankye! Thanks. :slight_smile: Well, my instrument is the whistle, but we’ve got keyboard, guitar, violin, bohdran, and djembe as well. The bassist is a session bassist… although my little brother is highly considering learning it. :slight_smile:

Thanks for the critique! Unfortuantely at this point there’s nothing we can do about that… :stuck_out_tongue:

Thanks! Yup, our sound engineer is great… really fun to work with too. :smiley: Unfortunately there’s nothing that can be done about that as the CDs have already been sent out and our sound guy lives in Indiana, but your critique is appreciated anyway.

Why thanye!

Where are they available?

11

In around 2 weeks or so we’ll have them up on our website (which is in developement right now) and we’ll sell them at our gigs. We MAY sell Mp3s somewhere as well, but we’re not sure about that yet.

Beautiful music… keep it up! And let us know when those tunes become available!!

13

Very well done! I enjoyed it emensely! Thanks for sharing it with us.

Yes, that was very nice. I hope you know how special it is to make music with your brothers. You can’t please everyone all the time, so please yourselves first. Keep going.

15

Well, my instrument is the whistle…

Maybe he means what kind of whistle you’re playing??
Anyhow, nice tunes! Sounds like y’all are having a good time.
I agree that there’s a rich history of brothers making music in lots of musical traditions. Adds to the “group think” I think.

16

Yes, that is what I was really asking. :wink:

17

Thanks! OK! :slight_smile:

Thanks! No prob!

Thank you! I must admit that at times it seems that special isn’t exactly the word to describe it :laughing: , but yes, it has been fun. Thanks again! :slight_smile:

Ah! Probably! :smiley:

Thanks! :slight_smile: We have a good time with it all the time except for the times when we don’t… :stuck_out_tongue: :wink:

OK then! :slight_smile: The high whistle is a high D Clarke Sweetone, the best of the cheapies in my opinion, and the low whistle is a Kerry Chieftain Low D (the old version… I forget what exactly it’s called.) Those are the only ones I play on the CD.
