PLayed the Totnes Monster show today, love playing that show really fun and gives me great experience, just remembered need to check out there web page, think they will be adding some live MP3′s and video’s from the session, http://www.totnesmonster.org/ check it out, i felt a little rusty as I’ve been suffering from voice strain and it’s taking quiet a while to recover from it, So all i seem to be doing is focusing on resting the vocals, finding it hard since i have two young ones to look after, but with this my sound has become really chilled and works alot better with just me and the acoustic, stripping things down adding a more delicate sound and approach.
Good news on the Local music front, i’ve been doing some work for Devon Youth Service and they should be setting up a Devon Youth Label/Promotions company to help develop Young bands and singers, we recieved funding and are in the next stages of setting it up, so should help me get to grips with the local circuit and give me the opportunity to pass on my knowledge of the music industry, that i know so far,
so following up from my last blog i was in the process of sorting out a local gigging band a nearly got things moving until i realised my voice needed it’s well earnt break, i’ve only been playing slots and gigs that i feel have been worth while, and had a great time, The live and acoustic show was an ace gig and had a really warming response, it alos alway great to play on the local stations, like BBC Devon which i did last November and regularly slot on Sound Dart Radio,
Really looking forward to piecing together an 5 track EP of acoustic with a basic backing production outlook, also to have another push with the last demo,
Sweets and regards
