We just spent 5 days in NYC recording our record with Dan McLoughlin of
The Push Stars and are finally finished! We had already recorded the drum and
bass tracks locally but needed to add all of the guitars, vocals, keyboards etc.
down there with Dan. I left first last Thursday and Adam and Jesse showed up
early Saturday after Jesse spent a grueling 5 and a half hours having his ear
talked off by Adam. Apparently, Adam very strongly disagrees with the
current administration's policies in the Middle East and also prefers Burger
King to McDonald's (according to Jesse, this took Adam three hours to
explain). As soon as they got there, I had Dan break the news to Jesse and
Adam that they were no longer needed and that it was our band now. We had
grand plans to take over the world as the newly formed duo Burning Daylight,
but then Adam got us to change our minds by offering us some of his "Chicken
Fries" from Burger King...damn you irresistible deep-fried chicken strips!
After that tense drama, we got to work and Adam oohed and ahhed 'till he
couldn't ooh and ahh no more and Jesse did his fair share of oohing and ahhing
himself plus a whole bunch of percussion. Unfortunately, Adam had to work
Monday morning so he had to leave late Sunday night but Jesse stayed so he
could help out with more of the recording, as well as engineering:
Jesse also got REALLY excited when we told him we were considering keeping
his drum parts:
Then I took a break from recording to learn how to play the banjo:
After all of that, we managed to finish recording our record and even find our
way home. Check back soon for updates on our album's release as well as
previews of brand new tracks on our MySpace page.

New CD Review!
Check out this review of our record "Whiskey & Romances" at the
North Country Roots Music Report:
"Nick Young's songwriting has maturity that belies his relative youth. Although
his band Burning Daylight churns out plenty twang and jangle-rhythm, the 12
titles that make up their Youth Dew release "Whiskey and Romances" never force
the stylistic issue. In fact, for every alt-country bar-rocker such as "Sneaking
Suspicion", there is a power-pop gem in a song like "Louisville", or a hybrid
Buddy Holly meets punk shape-shifter like "Black Soul, Black Heart". This takes
musical maturity.
Each selection on this fine long player leverages a fully-baked song in its core. Mr.
Young and company choose to wrap their work in the way that is most
complimentary to the song within.
The beauty in Burning Daylight's work lies in its confidence and belief in, first and
foremost, the song. It takes guts to trust a song to any number of stylistic vehicles.
The result is a record that invites you into a number of musical environments and
atmospheres--one that is equally fun and engaging. Highly recommended summer
listening."
