Want to put a recording/promo package togehter. Advice?

Hi all. Apologies if this thread has been done to death but.....

So a good while after getting together, myself and my band Manhattan have finally gotten to the point where we'd like to kick it into gear.

We'll be back on stage this week and early in the new year we'd like to put together a proper recording, not for sale, but for promotion purposes.


Does anyone have any advice for us? We'd like to put together a 3-4 song recording. If we're going to bother to do this, we'd like the best quality possible. Can anyone recommend somewhere we could get a really high quality recording done? (Please don't shill to us though, if you know of somewhere some examples would be nice )

Also, what kind of peripherals should we include with a recording? Bios? Photos? etc?

Any and all advice is appreciated. After taking so long to get off out feet, we'd like to get off on the right one


(sorry if this is frowned upon, but to get an idea of what we sound like we have some old low quality recordings up on You Tube of We Share.... and Hypnotise)
