The Floating Men... Celebrating 19 Years and the Release of Their 16th Album “No Clocks, No Calendars, Act I” - part sex farce, part love story, and part supernatural chiller, set on a sea island off the coast of South Carolina, where a liberated, enlightened hippie enclave interacts warmly with the local culture, dominated by the Afro-Caribbean descendants of slaves.

I start pre-production for Act II today

I'll be recording with my old buddy and Furman Singers colleague, engineer/songwriter Melissa Dupuy. I'll record relatively basic acoustic guitar-vocal version of the songs that are completely finished. Time permitting, I will add key composed parts for other instruments.

Then Melissa goes to Africa for two weeks. When she returns, I should have all re-writes complete so we'll record the rest of the songs and flesh out any outstanding arrangement elements of the songs we're recording today. Wish me luck! JH
