Hello Everyone,

We want to first wish you a Happy 2010 and hope that this year finds you Peaceful, Prosperous and Filled with all the Love your heart can hold. We have so many exciting things to tell you about including new gear project packages and an ever growing list of Award Winning and Critically Acclaimed artists coming out of MorningStar.

Congratulations to Melody Gardot, John Doyle and Stefanie Minatee for their 2009 Grammy Nominations! Lili Anel made the Top Ten list for both Jazz Times and the Philadelphia City Paper. Liz Longley had an amazing year as the 2009 Grand Prize Winner of the Rocky Mountain Folks Songwriters Showcase, 2009 Co-Winner of the Mountain Stage New Song Contest and 2009 Finalist at the Kerrville New Folk Showcase. Phil Roy was nominated for 2009 Independent Music Awards and Caleb Hawley was a 2009 New York Songwriter's Circle Finalist – just to mention a few!

On the gear end, we recently added a Weiss A/D converter so that now we can capture all the brilliance of our analog mix room. We've added Steinway hammers to our Yamaha C7 – oh so responsive and sweet! Oh, and some new plug-ins from Sound Toys and Isotope, and more . . . best to stop by and check out our rooms!

We also are very happy to announce some new package rates which can be tweaked to fit any budget – all you need to do is ask. As always, our consults and tours are free and MorningStar never hits you with set-up charges, piano tunings or any extra fees. So give us a call and see for yourself why we are still the "best kept secret in Philly"!
