Bonjour to All! It's been quite a summer for Anna Fermin's Trigger Gospel. From the Street Festivals of Chicago to the fields of France, TG kept their sunblock on and the music rolling. As many of you know they were in the studio with producer Jay Bennett, former member of Wilco, recording the follow up to their extremely popular 1999 debut, "Things to Come." Then traveled to Oslo, Norway to mix and master the songs with Jan Erik Kongshaug at the storied Rainbow Studio. Acknowledged as one of Europe's top facilities, Rainbow Studio, and the expertise of Jan Erik, have been utilized by everyone from Chick Corea to a-ha, Bill Frisell to Gilberto Gil to Pat Metheny. The band, needless to say, is excited about their new release, scheduled to debut on October 14. The new CD, titled "Oh the Stories We Hold" will be available through this website and at undertowmusic.com. Then nationwide on November 2. Join Trigger Gospel as they celebrate their new release. Saturday, October 18, TG will celebrate the release of "Oh, the Stories We Hold" at their favorite FitzGerald's in Berwyn, IL. Buy your tickets early so you don't miss out.
