Reading Materials

So on my other blog I have started up a review of some of the books I have been reading about music and related items. Some of these books have great advice and very practical information any artist getting started can use. Some of the books are Made to stick, The complete singer-songwriter, 6 steps to songwriting success, the indie band bible and a hand full of others. I hope to share some of the ideas i have come up with from these and from other things I have read along the way as well as cover some of the ones that worked for me and some that didn't.

I will soon be sharing some of my ups and downs along the way.

One of the ups as of late was jumping in and recording a little bit with an old friend of mine. He was test running some new gear he had gotten and needed someone to be a test run. For a few hours we tinkered and recorded one of my songs. I was amazed at the sound we got out from that afternoon. Its not a complete recording as we did not get a drum track but, over all for both of us good practice.

Well for now have a great day, and I'll be back with a bit more soon. Open mic night tomorrow ... always a bit of fun,

What I am Doing

So I have been thinking hard on what I am going to do with this blog. Some days I'm not sure what socks to put on but I do have an idea. My plan for this is to let you follow along with what I have been up to with trying to get something going with my music. Things I will fill you in on are shows/gigs, recording, when I have a CD ready, and what ever else happens along the way. I might even start up a list of Fan Photos from shows, and many other ideas yet to be thought up.

So I am hoping you will follow me and join in on things as I roll along.

I'm sure it will be an exciting adventure I hope you will join and enjoy.

My otherblog with tips and ideas for promoting a band or artist will also be getting some new things added over the next little while. You can check it out here www.indiesoundpromoter.blogspot.com
