Boyd Bristow - Sioux Falls, South Dakota

Cloudless Sky After a wait that could be best termed "a while," Boyd Bristow has made his first solo recording on Maxine/Audiophile. It is a celebratory collection of folk, R&B, country, gospel, and rock and roll. Featured are some of Boyd's best songs, along with excellent works from fellow South Dakotans Tom Peterson, Bruce Preheim and Dennis Westphal. Cloudless Sky was produced by master musician and recordist Chris Gage at MoonHouse Studio in Austin, Texas. Chris and Boyd go back "a long while." With the help of a cast of great players, and especially aided by the beautiful backing vocals of Christine Albert, they have created a deeply satisfying recording. Produced by Chris Gage. Recorded and mixed by Chris Gage at MoonHouse Studio; Austin, TX. Additional engineering by Christine Albert at MoonHouse Studio; Austin, TX. Mastered by Jim Wilson at YES Mastering; Austin, TX. Additional tracks recorded by Brian Bonde at Maxine Recordings; Sioux Falls, SD, and by Boyd Bristow at Image Up, Creative Services; Rapid City, SD.

Album info Top	Comin' Right Up April, 2012 Some big news: A South Dakota Acoustic Christmas will return to the stage this December for a reunion tour. Our special guest will be Michael Johnson. Stay tuned for details, or visit A South Dakota Acoustic Christmas on facebook for further news. I've continued to be busy with playing and with recording. Gordy Pratt's excellent CD, "Rusty Old American Dream," (available at CD Baby) is now out. And I'm very excited about Layne Putnam's first CD, "Better Than Me." Layne and her musicians spent a week here at Maxine/Audiophile studios and turned out a beautiful recording. It can be previewed (and shall we say, obtained) at CD Baby, as well. Currently we are working on a new Vince Two Eagles CD and Tom Peterson has started recording a CD that features cowboy tunes written by Badger Clark and George B. German, among others. The East of Westreville recording sessions will be starting soon, as well. That CD will feature songs from South Dakota songwriters (including some we call South Dakota songwriters, whether they know it, or not). And I continue to play with East of Westreville, Mike Connor, Terry Pospisil and Kenny Putnam (that band's name "The Song Pilots;" well, we're not sure if that's our band name, or not) and with Vince Two Eagles and Otokahe. I've also been tranferring some of the old recordings, especially live Blueberry Buckle tapes. Dennis Westphal and I have been going through them and we are both amazed at how enjoyable they are to listen to, some 30 years later. We plan on making them available, perhaps on youtube. Finally, I'm very excited about an upcoming gig at the Whittemore Legion Hall, an all night jam session with some wonderful musicians, Dale Fraser, Carl Nord, Robert Nord and Daryl Hillburg. This event will take place in Whittemore,Iowa on Saturday night, July 14. These are old friends and we will get together and share what we've learned in the last several decades.
