The first session involved inviting O’Brien over to Lincoln to show us what kind of songs he was thinking of putting on the EP. He arrived with his acoustic guitar and we ran through some ideas of what we thought would be good tracks to record and set up the microphones in the studio to get a few rough ideas down. We all agreed after discussing certain ideas on five tracks that we would record by the deadline in December. We decided on three full band tracks and two live acoustic tracks, we also discussed a plan of other musicians we would need such as a drummer and a keyboard player. This meeting was very useful to the project as we got the planning stages down and sorted out which tracks we would produce for the project and also we looked at a timescale of what and would not be feasible over the next few months.
