In the Studio

Well, its not really a studio. Its my room but oh well close enough. I've got three new songs written for my new cd which won't be out for awhile. I'm going to do a better job on this album, since I know how to use the equipment alittle better. So far I have the drum track of one of the songs recorded, and am currently trying to get a good rhythm guitar track recorded. Since this is my first time playing with drums, its taking me alittle longer. Then later on after I add the vocals I'm going to try some lead guitar with my Tele, then see if I can add a harmonica in there somewhere. My main goal is to try to make my music sound different from each other, and get some different instruments in there. I plan on learning the mandolin next year, and then maybe the piano. Lol, I've got a long list of stuff I'd like to get done, but first I have to get my real life issues out of the way. I am in the process of switching careers, buying a house, and getting married on July 19, 2010!

Updated!

As you can see I added some cool new things to my blog! I added a few links, and put some of my youtube videos on there for you all to see! I'm not too sure about the banner, I might have to do alittle work on that, or just change the layout.

Its Done

Its done..No this is not an April Fools joke the cd is done! I am finished recording and as soon as I come up with the money, its going off for copyright. So look for a summer release.. things aren't going too well at work. I'm going job searching tomorrow. I got laid off again! But the cd is done, and as soon as it is copyrighted, I will be sending some off to cd baby for sales. I'll update you all on the progress. For now, take care!

Its March...

Actually its the end of March but oh well. I've been recording, and re-recording, and jamming, and working. Also, I've been actually writing again. I got a great idea for a song, but I refuse to finish it until I'm done with the cd. I have 12 songs recorded out of 12 songs. I need to re-record 3 of them.
Thats about it for this month! Damn time flies fast doesn't it? I expect the cd to be released this summer, so be looking for it! I wanted a summer release anyways!

Hello

Wow, this is the first news post of the year..where has the time gone! I've been very busy this past month, haven't really had time to do anything. I did manage however in my busy schedule to play with my new digital recorder I got for Christmas. So far I've finished two songs. I'm really into music this month, I don't know if its because I'm broke and I need to sing the blues, or the fact the spring is on its way. I'm really into it and you can expect more news really soon! I will keep you updated as always, take care.

Jammin

Howdy, how have you all been? I'm just sitting here listing to indie music on cdbaby.com. This music speaks to me. Its all from the heart of the singers, because most of them wrote it. That is the most important connection, singers that are also songwriters. Everything they sing they have experience something in that song in someway. They have a way of connecting with an audience, because they speak from there hearts.
What about the music you hear on the radio today? Ya, some of its pretty good stuff, and yet some of it is just written so the singer could cash in some more checks. What rather you listen too? Would you rather listen to a song that was written by a group of six or more people crowed around an office thinking of ways to write a song that will make them a million bucks? Or would you rather listen to a song written by a singer, who writes his/her songs on there front porch, about their life, not worrying about money? Money is an evil thing and you have to be careful with it. Stay true to yourself and don't worry how much money you make. Be happy with what you have, and learn to use it.
