Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

The goal of this project is to record new songs with my band Coyote in August 2018 at Sacred Heart Recording Studio in Duluth. The music will be produced by Steve Garrington, the bass player from Low, and recorded by Jake Larson. The outcome of these professionally recorded songs will be to have a new product that I can sell to the public. It will also show that after ten years Coyote continues to define our unqiue harmony based songwriting through new material. I will know that I achieved my goal of creating a new Coyote album once I have recorded and released new music on compact disc and online digital services. I am a professional musician and this grant allows me the opportunity to spend more time pursuing and incorporating valued input from my composing partners in this group. Coyote is a collaborative songwriting endeavour which differentiates itself from my other projects. With their assistance and Mr. Garrington as producer I hope to create my highest quality work yet. I believe this new project will be a continuation of my songwriting evolution when I have a new product to sell.

Measurable Outcome(s)

With the grant received I was able to record and release a new CD entitled 'A Different Path' by my band Coyote.
