These Familiar Spirits demo release

To celebrate the spooky season, Julia and I are releasing a song a day from our newly completed demo for These Familiar Spirits! Follow along on our Instagram (@gordonandjuliamusicals) for daily videos.

(Many of the videos feature the artwork of Odilon Redon – including the cover image to the left… His spooky and beautifully otherworldly artwork is a big inspiration to us!)

Thanks to our phenomenal singers for their work bringing this brand new score to life over the past several months (and beyond!) – Shaleah Adkisson, Delaney Amatrudo, Kim Blanck, Ally Bonino, Carina Gravante, Victoria Huston-Elem, Amy Linden, MinJi Kim, Alllison Lian, Elexis Morton, Allison Posner, Hana Slevin, Gabrielle Stravelli & Tatiana Wechsler. And thanks, as always, to the wonderful music director Rich Silverstein and engineer Andrew Zinsmeister for making it all sound so good!

This past weekend we got to return to the world of REB+VoDKa+ME after far too long for a quick two day workshop in the Manhattan School of Music Musical Theatre Lab Series with a few new songs and brand new group of amazing actors!

The workshop featured Lucy Ames, Hallie August, Timothy Bevens, Cory Brooks, Maithili Ginde, Carina Gravante, Callie Anna Henrysen, Ayla Gittelman Ipek, Gigi Mechetti, Teyla McAdoo, Sammi Pillow, Kenneth Sweeney, and Yoyo Zhou, directed by the wonderful Madsie Flynn with music direction, as always, by Rich Silverstein.

Thanks to Aaron Riccardi and Liza Gennaro for this opportunity to revisit this project. I’m hopeful that we’ll be back in this world again soon!
