Hey,
I'm looking for some nice people, who also play instruments, to create a good environment to help bring a project I have been working on for 15 years (I'm 30 now) - finally come to life!
So why has it taken so long?
Well, I've let this be a natural thing, happening organically. I haven't forced it, trying to sit down and write. But when it happens, it feel like something else takes over me, it all just comes to me, and then I end up finishing them quite quickly.
Last month I moved 2 hours away from where I was temporarily and now have my permanent base set up in Burton on Trent.
Who am I?
I am a singer-songwriter, I have a few instruments that I can play a little and I can compose. For the people that care for creds (I don't) - when I was growing up (17 & 18 ) - I performed in front of crowds of up to 5,000 people and also toured a couple of weeks in theatres in Germany as a main act frontman.
What is the project and what is the goal?
So far I have written all the songs for the project (but new ones I am sure will come up). I have organised them as: I have 3 singles (3 songs each), 1 EP & 3 Albums - I want to come to life eventually and I have a bunch of other songs sat on the side.
All these songs flow into one another to tell a story. But also by themselves tell a story and in their own releases (Singles, EP & Albums) tell a story and overall follow the stories of the narrator (the vocalist). I always see music as the singer being the narrator and the music behind conveys the feelings and emotions.
This project doesn't have a specific genre, I like to think of this as a sound. The project will touch every type of genre in some way with each of the releases.
I don't know where this project will lead. I hope I can meet some nice people and have some fun.
If you can play an instrument, are reliable and don't have an ego - send me a message on WhatsApp (07305349251) letting me know a bit about you and let's see where this goes.
