Nothin’ Fancy putting wraps on gospel CD
Nothin’ Fancy continues to work on a new all-gospel CD, which is due for release in spring 2008. According to the band’s December newsletter, the CD is being recorded at Adventure Studios in Nashville, Tenn., with Rhonda and Darrin Vincent handling production chores.
Band members Mike Andes, Tony Shorter and Chris Sexton were in the studio in recent days to finish tracking the final six songs for the project.
“Special guests on the project include Cody Kilby of Ricky Skaggs and Kentucky Thunder on some incredible guitar work,” according to the newsletter. Photos of the latest studio outing are posted on the band’s Web site, www.NothinFancyBluegrass.com.
Speaking of Nothin’ Fancy, guitarist and vocalist Gary Faris recently underwent a second surgery on his shoulder and is recovering at home. Faris had surgery to repair damage to his shoulder in August, but doctors determined the repair didn’t heal well. Thus, a second surgery was required on Nov. 19. He will continue to recover at home until year’s end.
Nothin’ Fancy appearances slated through year’s end included Dec. 14 and 15 at Dixieland Music Park in Waldo, Fla., and New Year’s Eve for First Night Harrisonburg in Harrisonburg, Va.
