December 14, 2006 Hello all in the Dreaming universe. :)
We have been in a little hibernation as of late because we are currently in the studio recording our fourth CD. As of this writing we are almost
completed and will have the disk out into the world, hopefully, by Spring. Archive Dreaming On the Telly . . . A few years
ago the Dreaming paid a visit to television's Off Beat Cinema at our local ABC affiliate. Well, it seems it will rear it's head again on November 25th, Channel 7 1:45am
. . . . that's pretty late but luckly it is an early Saturday morning, or a super late Friday, so we can all sleep in.
So, if we weren't 'axed' from the show, we will be playing a cut from the ancient 2002's.
There will also be a short interview if my memory serves me so listen up to a flash from the Dreaming past.
The movie will be Robot Monster. Such a super bad movie that it is good. Perhaps the worst movie ever
made. So kick up your popcorn and enjoy. Check back soon concerning the new Dreaming CD project currently self titled "The Dreaming"
We will be recording this summer and have been previewing the songs at all our shows.
New Buffalo News Interview Gusto, page 2, 11/12/2004 The Dreaming's sound lives up to its band name: gorgeous melodies, rich textures, lush vocals and an often ethereal soundscape. The
quintet is a collaboration of some of the most talented veteran musicians on our scene: vocalist-keyboardist Ann Janish-Schieder, guitarist-bassist Ray Lorigo, keyboardist-guitarist Daniel Haskin, vocalist Leah
Pinnavaia and drummer Pat O'Connell. The Dreaming performs an acoustic set, opening for the Strawbs at 8 tonight in the Tralf and then celebrates the release of its third disc, "Shadow Days," 8 p.m. Nov. 27 in
O Restaurant & Lounge, 3047 Sheridan Drive, Amherst. For info: www.dreamsuite.com. Musicians Haskin and Lorigo took time to answer some questions. How has your music evolved over the course of three discs? Haskin: It's been a steady progression
from strictly acoustic on upward. Lately we've been writing songs using richer orchestrations, "Piglet and the Black Fox" and "My Resurrection," to name two.
Why the move in a "heavier" direction, relatively speaking, for the band? Haskin: I think we opened up our music to more instrumentation than the previous two CDs. Ray has a lot to do with that edgier
feel. He's a very percussive guitarist. On the other hand, I tend to work with sound textures and melody, so together it makes a nice fit. Also, Pat had more input this time around and it shows in some of the more
exotic drum work.
