Dear Friends,
We are writing to update you on the progress of the album and to let you know its official release date. While things are still a bit in the air at this point (including the dog!), we should have the albums in our hands by April 8th, and in yours by the 11th or 12th.
Recording, mixing, and mastering are now completely done, and the audio tracks and visual images (for the album cover, etc.) have all been sent to CD Baby for duplication. They should reach us by April 8 if all goes according to plan. We then slip them in the mail (we’ll get all the envelopes ready ahead of time), and you should receive them by the end of the week at the latest, Ap. 11 or Ap. 12. (If you live in Albuquerque, we may just drop yours off ourselves—but we will dress as mail carriers.) Posters will go in the mail at that point as well, and unless something strange happens, t-shirts and original pieces of art too. If your particular pledge prize will be delayed beyond this, we’ll let you know personally (again, dressed for the part).
The official CD release party will be on Saturday, April 12, at Sister Bar at 407 Central Ave. NE in Albuquerque. The show starts at 9 pm, with AJ Woods opening up and Wildewood playing second. They’ll each play for a little under an hour, and we’ll go on right at 11 pm. The cover charge is only $3, which is as low as Sister ever goes. We hope you’ll come and bring many friends!
Last but not least, thanks so much for believing in us and for helping us make this project a reality. We’re really happy with the product we have created, and we definitely could not have done it without you.
Your Cacti,
David, Christy, Stef, Samuel, Brandon, Paul, and Matthew
