My music is influenced a lot by Radiohead, David Poe, Jeff Buckley, Duncan Sheik and many others, doesn't necessarily resemble them, but is definitely inspired by it. Czech it aut---
Why this name?
It kind of just came to me when I was at a David Bowie concert, all of a sudden in my mind the words Emerald Sun came up, and I liked the thought of it...a green light on life would look interesting to me at least.
Do you play live?
I have played live in other bands, but I am more of a recording artist/engineer. A lot of this stuff is just tentative demos, not the best in sonics, but gets the point across.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
People have access to music without worrying about wasting their money, and they get to find out what they like for free, and if they want to support the band they will. It gives more freedom to the choice that people have as far as selection, and for that I'm grateful
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I think I'd prefer something smaller scale if it ever happened, more Astralwerks than Capitol if ya know what I'm sayin
Your influences?
a lot of melodic acoustic type stuff, much influence from Chris Stills, David Poe, Jeff Buckley, Duncan Sheik, and Radiohead
Favorite spot?
Interlaken, Switzerland
Equipment used:
Jay Turser acoustic electric tuned to DADGAD, Washburn acoustic in EADGBE, Roland drums, Yamaha AW16G recorder, some nice condenser and dynamic mics...
