It’s one of the songs Billy Corgan had me play on tour last year, performed live as Billy on acoustic guitar and voice, with Kevin Dippold on mandolin and me on acoustic violin. My violin lines have evolved for this final definitive recording, playing off the acoustic guitar’s melody lines to add a hook and counter melody to this beautifully produced song. Love it!

“A Stitch in Time” will be packaged with “A Song for a Son,” “Widow Wake My Mind” and an upcoming track to comprise the first limited edition EP from the Teargarden package. The first EP, Volume 1/Songs For a Sailor, will be released May 25th.

Here’s a blog entry from this week with photos of Billy Corgan and me in the studio.
