Glass Audrey- Former Band – a Recording Project– (Glass Audrey). Meganne Stepka & Mike Roberts co-founded Glass Audrey in 2008. Both being conceptual & creative artists they built a studio to record & produce their own albums.  As the technology to self-produce became more readily available, they began the adventure that is the album Little Waves 2011.  The earliest recordings go back to using 4-tracks, then old computers with slow processors (while plugging directly in to the sound card via only an  1/8  inch cable); then the world opened up with Cakewalk/Sonar, Logic, Final Cut, and now there is Garage Band (when on the road)!   Glass Audrey’s Little Waves continues to echo as an album to be revisited, as it is a truly artistic artifact, crafted fully by two individuals with very different strengths , sharing a vision.   Glass Audrey plans to release an EP from “the 1/8 inch days”. Someday Soon*
