Lyricist/Songwriter - and music aficionado.Band/artist history
You are seeing it, unfold.Have you performed in front of an audience?Initially, I did some performing in public (bars, community events, praise bands, and street fairs).
Followed by a period of.. re-interpreting songs made famous by popular artists. - A process that I started to find rather intriguing for a while.
Now, It's primarily about writing new music & enjoying the creative process.
Your musical influences
Anything and everything that I have ever heard has influenced me... in one way, or another.What equipment do you use?
Bass, guitar and keyboards... mostly.
And, using DAW's for recording & producing projects to flesh out musical ideas.Anything else?
I have always believed that the job of an artist has never been to merely reflect the status quo.
I feel the artist is also obligated to entertain, amuse, & educate... and, also to shock, appall, stimulate, irritate, and shatter old perceptions... while pushing the public in new directions they had never imagined.
As an artist, I don't want audiences to feel comfortable and familiar with my work.
If someone experiences my art (in whatever form) and doesn't... feel love, hate, admiration, disdain, anger, sadness, or repulsion, then I would view that as a monumental failure.
