New Found Road CD coming along

Tim Shelton in the studio with New Found RoadNew Found Road is also in the studio finishing up a new project.

Guitarist and lead vocalist Tim Shelton tells us that they have completed the instrument tracking and have started in on vocals. Jim VanCleve is producing.

“There are some really good songs on this record. I’m most excited about a Tim Stafford composition called Same Old Place that he sent a couple of years ago, and we just got around to recording. I’ve always liked the song, but I’ve really loved it lately…. it’s become my favorite on the album if I had to pick just one.

We’ve also got a song from one of my favorite songwriters and vocalists, Ronnie Bowman, which is very cool. Sonya Issacs sent us a good bluegrass song, I co-wrote one with Josh Schilling, and we’ve got a gorgeous song from Tim O’Brien that is very personal to me.

I’m extremely pleased with the album. Jim VanCleve and David Hall (engineer) have been awesome to work with.”

No word yet on when the CD will be released, but we’ll pass along what we find out as the time draws near.
