BLACK STONE ANNOUNCES UPCOMING EP TO BE PRODUCED BY MIKE FRASER
Independent Canadian rockers Black Stone are hitting the studio later this fall with producer/engineer/mixer Mike Fraser. Mike Fraser has been instrumental in the creation of many classic recordings with albums by AC/DC, Aerosmith, and Metallica among his many credits. With over 35 years in the industry Mike Fraser will take the helm as producer, engineer, and mixer on Black Stone’s upcoming EP tentatively scheduled for a spring 2016 release. Recording sessions will take place at Armoury Studios in Vancouver, BC.
"At the end of the summer of 2014 we started writing for our next album. It was at that time we contacted Mike Fraser and started a working relationship. Mike agreed to work with us only if the songs were strong enough. After months of working on demos our goals were reached and we are proud to announce that Mike Fraser will produce, engineer, and mix our upcoming EP. To be working with Mike Fraser is an honour and we are looking forward to the experience.”
