2024 Album Release Party January 25 at Mancos Brewing Company
Excitement is in the air about Mixed in Mancos. The 2024 albums are in production on both vinyl and CD. There is an album release party scheduled for Saturday, January 25 at Mancos Brewing. Stay tuned for details, including the procedure for receiving pre-ordered albums.
We appreciate your patience as we work to release the first Mixed in Mancos recording. It takes time and teamwork to produce a high quality album. It was great to see the collaboration between the bands and Jeff Jones, who mixed and mastered the audio. Jody Chapel created brilliant album artwork using the Mancos Common Press. We’re very thankful for Shannon Rierson, of Flak Records, who helped coordinate the production of the records and CDs.
