We’ve been getting lots of compliments on the sound quality of our new album. (Thank you!) Much of that credit goes to our amazing engineering team on the project (Scott Fish, recording engineer; Matt Werden, mixing; and Jessica Thompson, mastering). But of course it all starts with strings and vibrating wood, so we wanted to give a quick shout out to the fine instrument and accessory makers that make all the sounds on the album possible.
