Have you ever wondered how to create your own album? Or maybe were just curious as to how a band goes from their garage to professional recording studio? Let Matt Jackfert take you through a 10-step process of creating your very own album by following Charleston-based group, The Company Stores, as they went from playing in basements and garages in 2013, to releasing a full album in 2014 called Rollin’ In.
The first step may be simplest and the most difficult: Get off the Couch and Start Playing Music. Once you start playing real music with a regular group and go about it in an active, passionate way, things can start to happen--like getting a phone call to headline the Bramwell Beer Festival as the Company Stores did in 2013.
Discover the other 9 steps and listen to the album by clicking the play button at the top of the page.
Band Members:
Casey Litz -- Lead Singer
Matt Marks -- Guitar
Joseph Cevallos -- Violin, Trumpet, Harmonica, and a whole bunch of other stuff
John Query -- Percussion
Grant Jacobs -- Bass
Joey Liegel -- Former Bassist
