David Nolan is a singer songwriter in Edmonton
Canada(7 months of winter despite global warming)
David has written and recorded hundreds of songs.(this is due in part to the 7 months of winter)"some people like ice fishing , snowshoeing,skiing and snowmobiles" "NOT ME" "I prefer spending the cold winter months in the studio where I can create for the ears what I hear in my head"
David Nolan's latest Indy release is entitled
"ACOUSTADELIC RELICS". Just as the name suggests
the tunes are both acoustic and psychedelic. The lyrical content mostly looks at the world from the perspective of,[david]the starving artist,however a suicidal goldfish can have an interesting world view [most everyone has had a pet fish at one time], or an owl who's habitat is under is under siege by multinational developers.
Why this name?
its my name(that's my story and I am sticking to it )check the other bands I am with . Available on soundclick. THE WHACKOUTS - KOLE AND THE DEAD HANDS - TRIBAL GARAGE - THE BIOTICS - LAST RESISTANCE - PURPLE WALRUS
Do you play live?
Love to play live!!I will be hosting an open stage at MORANGO'S TEK CAFE during the month of APRIL 2007. These shows are all ages and go on saturday nights at 7 PM.
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It is the single most revolutionary development in the music business since the vynal record!!
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
yes! right away please!! It is nice to have label involvement in order to get the music to the masses.They have the promotion machine. Even though when you do the math the artist could make far more money selling 1000 cd's off the stage VRS selling 7000 to 10.000 with a label.Dispite thAT fact that I would consider selling 1000 units a huge success!(yay yay yay I'm gonna press another 1000) 10,000 units for a label would be considered a stiff .That said, I have starved for a long time and I find that I do good work when I'm hungry and cold(although I am open to the idea of creating and working on a full stomach)I can be happy if I can just keep writting ,recording ,releasing demo's and playing music.
Band History:
I played in lots of Punk and Deth Metal bands in the 90's including Disciples of Power, Tower Bridge, Deadmans Train, Angel-13,Eyes Only and The Biotics.I wanted to get my music out and found the acoustic vehicle to be the most economical and the most fun ,not to mention , easy stage set-up and teardown. I DO HOWEVER STILL PLAY LIVE WITH THE PROJECT BANDS THAT I AM INVOLVED WITH. NAMELY THE WHACK-OUTS.... LAST RESISTANCE.. KOLE AND THE DEAD HANDS .....TRIBAL GARAGE AND THE BIOTICS. In my role as a PRODUCER I have worked with some wonderful talent such as HEAVY METAL JAZZ CONCEPTS people as well F.N.I.T. , TRIPWIRE and EVENTRIP also on my list of producer credits are THE WHACK-OUTS.... LAST RESISTANCE.. KOLE AND THE DEAD HANDS .....TRIBAL GARAGE AND THE BIOTICS. and whole slew of singer / songwritter people ( I do not have the list handy).
