This is particularly great news for this talented band.   As much as we adored their last release, the mix was rough technically, and every time a song of theirs got airplay this year, my sound guy husband would give a long suffering sigh and say, "I wish someone who had a clue would mix for them."    Sometimes wishes do come true....at least going forward.
