To all,

The holidays were great for all in Slipstream.  We had new additions to the family and many wonderful blessings all around.  What is new for this year?  Simple.  New material for a new Slipstream album.  We have several songs completed and several ideas being worked over.  I can speak for all of us on this when I say we are extremely excited for the new direction these songs are taking.  As a fan of music, I would always want to ask, 'What is in store for the upcoming album?'  Slipstream is now a four piece band.  Chad Alvarez has stepped down as the 2nd guitarist of Slipstream.  We wish him well and hope he accomplishes his goals in his new endeavor.  We have no plans in replacing him at this time.  We have been writing as a four piece and will continue for the rest of this album.

This brings up many tremendous possibilities for the band this year.  We still love music; We are still fans of music; We still enjoy creating music; We love performing music.  This is a great opportunity to branch out in new directions musically and performance wise as well.  There is a great deal of fire underneath us with musical growth on this album.  We feel the best has yet to come out of us musically.

Look for shows in the 2nd quarter of this year; Look for new material at those shows; Most importantly, look for a rejuvenated Slipstream in 2010!
