Fragile Thunder Trio update

The Fragile Thunder Trio is about halfway through our Indiegogo campaign! The record has been mixed, and now we’re looking for pre-orders etc so we can get it mastered, packaged, pressed, and on the market! Here’s a link to the campaign – click through, take a look at the video, and see what your options are for contributing. Here’s an audio montage of moments and textures from the record. Contributors of $50 or more can sign up for a two-set live recording of Stephen and David (with Marty Pell of On the Bus joining in on keyboards in set 2), from a house concert near DC in November of 2018. Here’s an excerpt: jam into Days Between The Fragile Thunder trio is: Anela Lauren – harp and vocals Stephen Inglis – guitar and vocals David Gans – guitar and vocals We appreciate your support!
