Today @lizcooperdotcom new album, New Day is out. A lot of life was woven in between our sessions together over the course of 2024 through 2025 until today! Making records can often take a really long time. Time to experience things, time to reflect, time to write, perform/record, mix, master, schedule and after ALLL that, then RELEASE. And man, when it still resonates with you after all that, I mean, that’s what it’s all about right?

This is the first record I made from start to finish in my humble garage studio. A place I love so much and where I pretty much spend everyday now.

A few shout outs!

I’m grateful for @pfred_ a beautiful bearded boy and a great person to make music with. So open, talented and always willing to listen. Knows when to speak up when help is needed and when to play along and follow someone else’s lead

My dear friend @jocieadams from @arcirismusic played some bass clarinets on baby steps. A small part but one of my favorite sonic imprints on the whole record. My boy @oliverhill___ the Swiss Family Robinson of string arrangers will likely be on every record I make from here till forever. @farawayjazz is secretly the best drummer and percussionist I know and he adds the sickest atmosphere to Better Than Ever. @grantprettyman plays some bass and also helped Liz with album design and artwork. What a G.

As always @emilylazarlodge and the team @lodgemastering make things POP POP POP

My dog Hakeem probably deserves a shout out as well. I didn’t mean to put him in every video. He just is. Best studio dog in the biz, I will fight you on that.

@lizcooperdotcom is an effortless artist. Her songs feel like every one of them were written on a paper napkin in a diner or dive bar. So poignant and accessible. Plus, she shreds. Plus, she is the nicest loveliest person to be around, plus hard working plus always down to literally clown. I love you Liz. I love this album. Go give Liz money now for her music or merch which is also sick. #nice #sick #icecold

Go listen yall! Liz is the real deal and deserves to make a living making her art! by @chimneyisme

Shortly after the release of their debut album in October of 2021, the band Coco would begin work on its follow-up. In Episode 61, Maia Friedman, Oliver Hill, and Dan Molad discuss the making of their 2024 sophomore effort 2. Written and recorded during significant transitions within their personal lives, the members of Coco touch on the catalysts that would result in the album’s creation including their shared and unshared histories, formation, and experiences recording in both Virginia and Yucca Valley. Listen on our website or wherever you get your podcasts. You’re the best. @songofcoco @oliverhil___ @chimneyisme @maiafffff @firstcityartists @adrianolsen.mp3 @montroserecording #richmondva #yuccavalley #joshuatree #independentmusic #indierock #independentartists by @chimneyisme
