    So what I’ve been thinking is maybe they spared us the “new album coming soon” bit because they’re gonna jump straight to the official album announcement with title, art and release date. Maybe the week tickets go on sale to the public?

    When is that? 2/25?

    Ok, hold onto your butts. Info dump coming momentarily, assuming there's no character limits and I haven't messed up any of the formatting.

    Or maybe they think they'll sell more tickets if they don't announce a new album, lol.

    Sessions
    2020-09-08: "Whiteboard" video from Rockbridge with Dave, John Alagia, and Brian Calhoun (Screenshot & attempted decoding from madhatter)

    2020-10-22: Dave mentions writing in Virginia, calling in Carter, then Buddy and Tim, then Stefan, then Rashawn and Jeff. Recording was done with Rob Evans.
    Writing has been free and unforced. Feels that a new song called “Walk Around the Moon” is one of the best songs he’s ever written, and Rob was the one to suggest bringing in Carter based on that song. More than 10 songs have been recorded. There’s a variety of songs, from raucous rocking, to sweet, to retro. (Source: Sirius Interview, anthonysoscia, paulg)

    2020-10-22: Dave mentioned just wrapping up sessions with Carter and had a "little transitional ceremony together." Asked if we would hear a new album, and Dave said “hopefully soon”. Songs are written, everyone seems happy, “Carter was jumping up and down yesterday” (Source: Dave Matthews Voting Power Hour)

    2020-10-26: Stefan promises to give details on studio sessions after the election (Source: Twitter)

    2020-10-28: Horns were in studio from roughly 10/11 to 10/17 (Source: SaxWhisperer, BruceW)

    2020-10-28: Timeline seems something like this -- July/August: Dave writing a lot of new stuff, Mid-September the latest: Dave working with Rob and recording stuff at HH, Late September: Call in Carter, Late September/Early October: Call in Buddy/Tim, Early/Mid October: Call in Stefan, 10/11-10/17 ish: Horns record, 10/22: Carter still recording some percussion (Source: SaxWhisperer)

    2020-10-30: Interview w/Dave on CNN shows he’s back in Seattle (presumably meaning recording in Charlottesville is done) (Source: Dannyyankou)

    2020-11-19: After PFWYG; “Thank you very much everybody for being here...me & Carter, getting to hang out. You know we have a surprise for you because Carter and I have been hanging out, everybody, on the side, making noises together. (Carter: HEY!) We're very excited to show you them, that's why we happen to be here today, socially distanced, big glass doors between us and whatnot.” (Source: Dave & Carter Warehouse Session (Mike Simmons Youtube))

    2020-11-20: Stefan says that in 2020, he "went to VA to record a new record safely with DMB." (Source: Twitter)

    2021-01-14: ElijahSoRight72 compiled some of the existing rumors. Mentions studio sessions in January 2020 with Mark Batson, and that Dave wanted to record an album in 2020. Plans were in place by Vegas show in February, but then the pandemic hit.
    (Source: ElijahSoRight72)

    2021-01-20: Stefan: "I sent a lot of demo bass for the tracks remotely after Carter put his tracks down before making my way out to the studio to lay them down properly. Working with only one or two band members at a time with tons of testing made the schedules a bit tricky, but it happened!" (Source: Twitter)

    2021-01-27: Some minor details of assumed timeframe are off (Source: scottpr)
    2021-01-27 Recording was done in Aug/Sept 2020. (Source: scottpr)

    2021-02-02: Word from a guy on DMB Family who was on a Zoom with Jeff. Jeff confirmed that they have been recording and that he and Rashawn worked together to come up with the horn parts. Rashawn came up with some arrangements that were difficult, but amazing. Jeff did not know any song titles. (Source: Hahninator)

    2021-02-10: Process is “further along” than early mixing/mastering stage. (Source: BruceW)

    2021-04-29: Big Update from Carson31
    In Sept 2019, Dave started talking about recording a new album
    Nov/Dec, Dave & Batson worked on songs (see Batson reddit comment)
    Song called Charlottesville, written in 2017, recorded around time of CT sessions, but not intended for that, political song about Unite the Right rally
    Intention to record in Vegas at A Studios
    August 2020, Dave was working with Alagia at The Village in LA – white board video came not long after, followed by Dave in Charlottesville working on songs w/some of the guys
    Tim was at Haunted Hollow in Aug/Sept 2020 recording his own solo stuff, including videos that he posted
    Band was rotating in & out of studio most of Sept/Oct
    After Oct 21st, recording was essentially done, but overdubs were being recorded
    More overdubs in Nov.
    January 2021, Rashawn at A Studios in LA recording overdubs, Jeff possibly recording overdubs for album at his home studio
    March 2021, management focused on new album
    Unnamed producer who has done mixing for band in past, usually comes in when album is done and mixing needed for a single (Note: later revealed to be Spike Stent)
    Waiting is likely due to album being remixed
    Expect album notes to include credits like Alagia & Evans, plus an unnamed producer (not Batson, Cavallo, or Lillywhite)
    (Source: Carson31)

    2021-05-10: Rashawn was tracking horns at Studio A in Vegas at end of Oct/early Nov 2020. Overdubs recorded in January (Source: Carson41)

    2021-05-28: Interview w/Tim Reynolds by Andre Mota, Youtube link
    About 11 tracks of just Dave & Carter when Tim got involved, sounded huge
    Buddy and Tim worked together over two weeks
    Hasn’t heard since then, but was expecting that he would have tracks to listen to at that time.
    Stefan did work remotely, horns came in after Tim & Buddy
    In terms of general process when recording albums, Tim often comes in and does pieces that are later stitched together by Dave & producer – Tim can be surprised when hearing final results b/c he doesn’t remember specific of what was done or how it fits together
    (Source: dmb41r, Youtube)

    2021-06-23: Dave & Alagia were working on songs before Dave went in studio with Rob Evans in 2020. Dave probably went into session w/Rob Evans more prepared than may have been implied. (Source: Carson41)

    Re: New Album Coming Soon?

    Great read. So it sounds like the album was indeed done, mixed, presented to the band before the 2021 tour, and someone somewhere for some reason wasn't happy with it so they revisited it. All the sources pointed towards that, including commentary from the band, etc. So now we look at a 2022 release.

    It's funny Stefan says he's looking forward to making another new album and this one isn't even out yet lol. But go ahead, there's plenty of time before the 2022 tour to go ahead and start recording stuff for another one. Why not?

    I had some good stuff in there! I'll try to find a link but there is Instagram evidence of Rashawn at Studio A in Vegas. And the note on Cavallo & Dave texting came from a chat on an app called Clubhouse. I don't have their phones tapped

    I didn't say it at the time but I vouch for BZSlick's source. I also vouch for Doby's source.

    Sounds similar to the AFTW story, when supposedly someone (the record company?) messed up Lillywhite's work that Dave liked?

    So much so that I was wondering if "Stay Patient" and "Don't worry" might be song titles.

    2021-05-18: Rashawn video of orchestra, "darker tone", "Orchestra arrangements by the only and only #DavidCampbell #dmb #Album #music" (Source: saxman210, Dropbox mirror from Cscottrun,imgur mirror from the_stone)
    Video was taken in The Village in LA, most likely “very recently” (Source: Carson31)
    Reading too deeply into this, but these two next to each other with the white board picture make me think that this is A Dream So Real

    This was in response to the orchestra session Rashawn posted (obviously months later, after MME debuted).

    That said, I do think Rashawn said something along the lines of "shit's getting real" a few times.
