This is a solo project by me, Rick Waters. I play all the instruments, which include guitars, bass, elec. and acoustic violins, keyboard, mandolin, dijembes, and sometimes vocals. I am currently doing this to work on a sort of "resume" so that I may one day become a record producer...
Please show your support. Nothing makes me happier than to hear a person comment on my music.Band/artist history
I just started doing this because I was bored. I have been playing violin since I was four, and got back into it 3 years ago after I quit it my senior year of high school. The guitar has been my love since I was sixteen. The other instruments just came naturally: the bass because it is similiar to a guitar, and the mandolin, because it has the same tuning as a violin.
I played an older version of one of my songs to my friends and they were all really impressed, so that is what keeps me going. The feeling you get when a suprised look appears on a new listener's face because they realize that you can actually do this, and are not pretending...Have you performed in front of an audience?No, this is a studio thing for me. But if you need me to serenade you, all you have to do is ask, and be a really hot woman...

and small and medium dijembes. (I better get some hook-ups for sponsoring this stuff..haha!)

The vocals on this one aren't mixed loud enough but I've noticed my material sounds different, usually better, on other PCs. So, the vocals may be blastin' on your mix. It's still mixed very well. Feel free to critique my material. Mack
