Why this name?
Everything good was taken.
Do you play live?
Not going to happen.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
The internet has leveled the playing field. Ten years ago, the biggest challenge for Sibling Records was getting good distribution. Now, every artist has access to the worlds largest music retailer (iTunes), and a myriad of other great outlets. It is truly possible to reach everyone now.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Not going to happen
Your influences?
My influences are widely varied. I love all kinds of music, and have been influenced by just about everything I listen to.
Favorite spot?
The Pacific Northwest. God's creative handiwork on display.
Equipment used:
New and Vintage, Digital and Analog, Clean and Dirty. I use ProTools for recording, mixing and mastering, Garage Band for quick creation. Mac computers, Hampton mics, Fender, Alvarez, Takamine guitars and bases, Line 6 Pod, a great Crate 15 watt amp that I got in a little shop in Whichita Falls, Texas, and tons of other cool toys.
Anything else...?
Share, Share alike.
