I'm a songwriter looking for a singer for an originals project.
I'm looking for a different kind of voice - not genre-specific, not jazz/blues/X-factor/rock - just something that sounds a bit original and not too forced.
Before you reply please make sure:
- You have listened to my soundcloud which is found at soundcloud.com/mystringtheory
- You have some examples of your singing you can share online or send by email (or you are willing to record something quickly on your phone) I need to h ear something first please
- You are reliable and enthusiastic about getting involved in a project.
- You have read the rest of this ad.
I've got diverse influences and I'm finding it hard to write in strictly one genre, so I'm thinking maybe just do a bit of everything. I’m really interested in having a strong rhythmic section perhaps with electronic drums and deep bass, with lovely chords and some gorgeous vocals on top. Something which moves both your heart and body.
I have switched from piano to guitar for various reasons and I’m now trying to create a new sound looking in the first instance just to record some demos with my home recording equipment.
If things go well, I’d be looking at setting up a band and doing some gigs, maybe making a video or two. There's definitely the potential to co-write (or work on your material), but I’d also be looking for someone who was happy to play a bunch of my songs too.
Diverse influences randomly include: Radiohead, Massive Attack, Doves, Damon Albarn, Elliott Smith, Nick Drake, Kate Bush, Bat for Lashes. Etc ad infinitum.
Please reply only if you can provide an example of your singing - something recorded on your phone is fine. You can find my email address on my soundcloud page Write to me here for my email address if not. I’m 43 and live in central Cambridge.
