   About The Apprentice
The Apprentice entered the studio on May 6, 2008 to record their new Self-Titled full length with a new producer/engineer named Josh Antonuccio. Josh Antonuccio is the co-owner of 3 Elliot Studios nestled in the hills of the Appalachian Mountains located in the small college town of Athens, OH. Entering the studio for their fourth release on Future Destination Records, the band had the goal of creating an organic recording of songs that sonically expressed the lyrical content, a blend of songs about faith, murder, heartbreak and hope. Wrapped in a unique expression of modern Americana, the band achieved a beautiful treatise of the human condition, flawed and beautiful, broken but not hopeless.

A lady was picking through the frozen turkeys at the grocery store, but couldn't find one big enough for her family. She asked the stock boy, 'Do these turkeys get any bigger?'

The stock boy answered, 'No ma'am, they're dead.'
