background / biography
Greetings ... This is my experimental/acoustic project. I write songs, i sing them...i gave it a name, called my friends to tell them i havent gone crazy i just had to go public with my idea... so i came out of hiding, grabbed my guitars, pulled it together and i booked some studio time with my friend and producer Trevor Huster on off days... i want to have the CD out soon. I booked some shows and they went well, i booked more- i am refining the concept as i go... i got alot of local support for this...odd - i never expected it to be more than an audio therapy session... But i like it doing it, and here I am. Just me and my acoustic. I want to build a band around this for the next CD but i am doing things solo to develop my street creds ... but I never said i was a great singer, heck i never played guitar (i have been a bass player for years) ... BUT the songs on here are stripped down, and recorded virtually live, and (at this time) not meant to be overlayered. Sure i can envision a band playing with me someday, and breathing life into whats already there...BUT i am WAITING to "add" instrumentation and give the songs some "big-time" production for now... Hence the title of the release "The Truth In Simplicity"------------------------------------------------------------ WHY DID I DO THIS? Well I have had it all and even lost it all before... sometimes life breaks you down. I have found when in doubt - "simplify" and rebuild...Sometimes we need an outlet to express our losses, loves, trials and tribulations. I am fortunate. I am wealthy in spirit now..I have my art (see my personal site:www.myspace.com/pipeyard), i got my band (I play bass in "pipeyard" (check out www.myspace.com/pipeyardmusic.com)- they are my friends, and bread & butter...i love them dearly.) i have my small family who dont see this side of me often... I have been doing the band thing for 18 years...done everything, traveled, recorded, had alot of laughs and tears...I have built and re-built mini-empires. ----------------------------------------------- So in the course of self discovery i wrote this (and a ****-ton more) music... i have a side i needed to express, i have songs that needed to get out, i have a voice i want to develop ... sooo hopefully you will like what i have created, and i will do my best to be real, have integrity, and be 100% HONEST IN MY APPROACH (no matter how venerable it appears or sounds)... This is Letters to the Dead, and i thank you for your time....enjoy !!! OH AND JUST TO MENTION... I AM A BASS PLAYER ...nominate me if your feeling like it...OR Nominate me in the "best muscian guy with an acoustic guitar, tattoos and a good song idea" Catagory
