Rush the Growler

Our first recording session, October 15, 2010.

At the "BorB Studios" in Orchard Park with Dave Meyer recording and mixing for us.

The tracks we recorded with him were "Farewell to Nova Scotia," "Rolling Home", "Star of the County Down," and "Old Polina."  These tracks became our first sampler CD, "A Taste of the Growler."  The recordings were later remixed and became part of our first real CD, now available.

Hodfest- July 24, 2010

It was the 7th Annual Hodfest, in Sloan, NY and our first "Hodfest" as a group.  

The contest at this year's party was to come as a person from your favorite song.  Scott dressed as "Rody McCorley," with golden ringlets, and pike, and a noose.  He won a "major award" for the costume.
