Harvey Stanley's album features many of our studio musicians. Harvey's folk-rock-style singing and song writing reminds us a lot of both Woody and Arlo Guthrie. He started this project with just his songs and his guitar. He had no band or other supporting musicians. Everything else was provided by Big Toe and Shortler Studios.
The album graphics were produced by the team at Big Toe Studio. There was also a short bonus video featured on this album, which was edited and mixed at Big Toe.
There are two songs from this album featured below. Happy Camper is a...well...happy little tune featuring some classic stride piano. The Desert Song is an old school country waltz with a twist.

This project was commissioned as a memorial piece for a deceased family member, Mr. Ralph Hughes.
Three inspirational songs were provided. The arrangement of these into a tableau-like medley was written here at Big Toe Studio. The entire suite was then recorded and mastered here as well.

Let Go - Christopher Marcus
Christopher Marcus is a singer/songwriter that wanted to produce something special for the first dance with his daughter at her wedding. He came to Big Toe with a simple piano part and a lyric sheet.
We assisted him with everything else necessary to bring his vision to life, and in time for the wedding as well!
