 After two weeks of being on the road, we've just  returned from recording Carmen Townsends debut  record. Carmen and her band made their first appearance  at The Carriage House Studio's in Stamford, CT. The  band worked with producers Warren Bruleigh and  Gordon Gano who also produced The Tom Fun  Orchestra's debut album. The results of the recording are  amazing and keep your ears peeled for a sneak peek in  the weeks to come. Thanks again to Johnny and Brendan at The Carriage House and also to Meaghanne MacLean our chef while on the road. 

The Tom Fun Orchestra kicked of August with a short jaunt to Montreal to play The Osheaga Music Festival. On the way the band stopped through New Glasgow for the Riverfront Jubilee, then to The Capital in Fredericton. Thanks to everyone who made it to the shows! Stay tuned for the September show schedule.
