Update: 6/8

Although the blog has been dormant for a few months, the members of Dancy have not been.  Here are some highlights from the past few months!

• We have played our first nursing home show, which was a great opportunity to play to a new set of people.  

• Dan has re-joined Labor of Giants (in which Nancy sings and plays guitar/percussion) on bass.

• Pre-production talks have begun on our debut album.  We are going to record with our good friend, Ed  Sabourin, in his new home studio.  We begin recording this Sunday (6/10), and are very excited!
  
• We are playing at The Outer Space in Hamden, CT this Sunday night (6/10) as part of the singer/songwriters' night.  Other acts playing include:  Jason Prince (of Eurisko) and Chris Crowley.
  
• Finally - we are playing with our good friends 41Prospect on Friday 6/15 at Hartford Road Cafe

We hope that all is well with everyone and look forward to seeing you soon.  Enjoy the late spring/early summer!

The Big Dance

Four more days until the dance with mJa, his crew of ruffians (TDT) and Sir. Andy Wakeman.  Shine your shoes and press your suits.

Give 'em what they want.

From the start, Dancy has been wanting to record, but the logistics of recording have stalled the process. First, Nancy's other band, Labor of Giants, took up a lot of her time while recording an EP, then Dan's other band, Johnny Mainstream, got busy recording their upcoming album...not to mention Dan's wife having a baby in the midst of it all.

There was also a lot of debate over how to record music...should Dancy pay for studio time or record everything themselves? How would the songs be arranged? Would other musicians be involved?

So many questions...

With Michael James Anderson's album release show right around the corner, we decided to just jump head first and start recording. Nancy has a cheap interface and Audacity on her computer, and a vague idea how to operate it all. We will have at least one song available for free download by the big show, and will continue to record and share as we go.

Perhaps in the future will allow us to get into a fancy studio and record a full-length album. Until then, we're giving the fans what they've been asking for. Hope you all like it!

oh, the morning

Good morning Dancy Blog viewers, 

We are eleven days away from our full band show at the Main Pub (Manchester, CT).  We are going to be back by the Labor of Giants and are very excited about the whole night.  Andy Wakeman, a Connecticut singer-songwriter is opening the night with a full-band line-up.  michael James anderson, backed by The Dirty Twang, is up next celebrating the official release of his "Left of the Dial" album.  Dancy will close out the night with our styling.  Hope to see ALL four of you there.  


There is capacity for 200 at the bar, so please feel free to share this with your friends and do not feel the need to keep this show a secret.  The night is shaping up to be full of friends, family, fancy things, fun food and friendly faces.

Here you are, happy Tuesday.

Wow, we did it! It took years of work and a team of specialists, but we've got ourselves a blog!

Now, what to write...

Oh! You should like us on Facebook! Duh...
