Last night, I had the privilege of sitting in on the final tweaking of the first major album from FallOut Shelter Records (FOS). I sat in a Brooklyn studio with the lead man, D-Boards (Danny), Haylo, Kimbo, his man John Q, my partner Chris, and the sound engineer, Matt. They are in the midst of what has been an incredible 7 year journey.
As the final mixing was being applied before sending it off to an industry giant for mastering, I couldn’t help but smile. I have only known these guys for over a year, but I know their story well. They have been through one nightmare after another, yet have survived due to their incredible persistence, courage, and determination. They thought of giving up all the time. They struggled financially. They gave every ounce of everything they had to give toward this album, even when they had nothing at all.
