SEEKING
Background Singer, Bass Guitar, Drums, Keyboard, Lead Guitar, Piano.ABOUT
I have 12 original songs that are written and ready to record for a full length album.
Ideally, I would love to to be in a local band that makes original and distinct music but recording the album is my first priority.
I have attached a demo of the first track on the album called "Around and Around".
Yes, it is a tongue in cheek song about a guy who is in over his head with a girl who is into bondage and BDSM. Are are all of my songs like this? No, but I do tend to write with a bit of an absurdist angle from time to time. My material ranges from cartoony to emotive and I have done my best to strike a balance between serious and fun.
With that said, I feel like "Around and Around" is a good representation of the album. It's quirky, accessible, oddly catchy and in the vein of the 90's and 2000's bands that I enjoy listening to.
As far as what I am looking for: Bass guitarist, Drummer, Keyboard player / pianist, Lead Guitar (maybe).
The goal and dream is to get a backing band on board and then rehearse the material enough to be able to perform it. Not necessarily for a live audience but for a producer to see where we are coming from. If we feel like we are in good enough shape to practice the material locally then I am all for that but I ideally would like to record the album first then start playing around town.
Please let me know if you have any questions. I am an open book and have long been looking forward to fulfilling this dream of mine. I need help. I need people who are excited and passionate about doing something a little different.
