Hey Friends -

I just thought we would drop a line with a few updates. We are currently on the road as I am writing this from El Paso, TX as we speak. Since we got off of the Vans Warped Tour this past summer we have been writing like crazy in preparation to record a full-length record sometime next year. We recorded and shot a video for a cover song of Christopher Cross’ “Sailing” that is available for download and viewing here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kru2iF9tRFQ)

Going into the new year we will be keeping our website (http://www.windsordrivemusic.com) much more up to date, posting video blog updates regarding progress on the upcoming record and other news. We will also be announcing a hometown show in the upcoming months as well as other regional tour dates. Make sure to also watch the online store, as new merch designs will be available for purchase!

Please make sure to follow us on Twitter (@windsordrive) and Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/windsordrive). It is the absolute best way to get in touch with us and stay up to date with other Windsor happenings. Since I know none of you use MySpace anymore

If you have attended a Windsor Drive show in the past you know that we like to perform a cover song here or there during our set to spice things up a bit. Anyway, we decided to take it one step further this time and try something new. We present to you our very own recorded version of the 1980 number one hit Sailing by Christopher Cross. The music of Christopher Cross has been a huge influence on us as individuals and collectively as we write Windsor Drive songs. After tracking the song, we thought to further demonstrate the emotion of such a powerful song it would be cool to shoot a video for it. Daniel Cummings, a great friend of ours who has worked with fellow Wisconsinite Bon Iver as well as regional artists Tapes ‘n Tapes and Mason Jennings, was approached about the idea and shared a passion and creative vision for the song. To some of you we hope this brings back memories of those days many years ago, and for others we hope this opens the door to new music! Check it out… Sailing. — Kipp, Jon, Owen, & Dan
