Dear friends,
THIS CD WILL INCLUDE THE WORLD PREMIERE RECORDING OF "MISTERO" BY CHRISTOPHER CALIENDO, COMPOSED FOR US IN JULY 2011!!!!
Check out the new video posted on the right side of this page!
We are in the planning stage of our next recording and we'd like to involve you! Recording is an expensive venture and a very necessary one.
We would appreciate whatever contribution you might be able to make and even have some cool rewards to help sweeten the deal!
Our goal for this project is to raise $4000 CAD. If by chance we could raise more than that it would go toward the equally necessary advertising and promotion of the released disc. Recording costs include: the actual recording process, the engineer, manufacture, royalties, design, photography etc.
We plan to release a disc that we've been asked for many many times at all the shows we perform at. The latin slant is very popular and we will end up with a recording of touching ballads, latin dances and cool stuff in between.
Release is planned for late fall 2011, just in time for you to fulfill your Christmas gift needs with a CD for everyone on your list!!
