I am my own band. Through the years, I have found that it is very hard to keep a band together very long. I can only depend on myself 100% of the time. Can't seem to find anyone with long term dedication.
Do you play live?
At this time I am not playing live any where, although, I love to entertain. I have my own mini studio in my basement where I perform and produce all my songs.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The internet is a powerful tool which lets someone communicate with the world. I hope that the music industry continues to monitor and protect all copyright and royalty issues for all artists.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Yes
Band History:
Since I was 10 years old, I have been writing and recording songs. I am a self taught guitar player and use a guitar synthisizer to create the sounds of many instruments in my recordings. It is very gratifying to develope a song from just an idea to a finished product. Like an artist painting a picture, it all begins on a blank canvas, and more and more color is added to what eventually becomes beautiful to the eyes. In music, you hope to capture the interst of someones ears with arrangentment of sounds and words that you build as you write and record.
Your influences?
Beatles, Bill Joel, 60's 70's music
Favorite spot?
New York, NY ! Much opportunity there.
Equipment used:
Roland GR-09 Synth with a Brian Moore guitar. Taylor accustic, Fender 185Pro amp, AKG condenser mike, Boss drum machine.
Anything else...?
I am now,seriously, more than ever, pursuing a musical career. I belong to Songwriters Guild of America and BMI, and beginning to make some good contacts. I've been getting alot of good feedback from the pro's and I have been instructed to get my music out to the public. Hopefully Soundclick will help me accomplish this. I need to hear from the public.
