IN A CABIN WITH



In A Cabin With (IACW) is an international recording project which invites various musicians for album recording sessions in a unique location anywhere in the world. Usually it is collaborations between local musicians and Dutch musicians. Many of which have never worked together before. The main goal of IACW is to create an ongoing collaboration with musicians all over the world and establish clusters to learn and play music together. Every two months our project takes place at a beautiful and inspiring spot somewhere in the world to write, produce and record an entire album. If possible we will present the written and recorded music in one or more live performances at suitable venues after the recordings have ended.

After mixing these recordings in the studio in The Netherlands, the albums are fully available (worldwide) as a FREE download on our website www.inacabinwith.com and several other internet platforms and websites. The actual CD’s will be released and distributed a week later by one of Netherlands biggest distribution companies V2. If the local musicians are signed by a label we try to arrange the actual album to be released in the particular country as well.
