Classic metal influenced project in need of singer. Song writing can begin as soon as someone comes on board and it will be recorded at my home studio. I am re-recording some of my older music currently which will form the base to an album made digitally available/distributed. I did an EP a few years ago so spending sometime re-recording the songs with better drum tracks and using my new Soldano Clone amplifier.
I also built a new Digital Audio Workstation running Cubase with a low latency multi-channel sound card, 8GB RAM and a relatively fast CPU. I have good quality gear in terms of mics and my rooms sound quite good.
So as a qualified and experienced sound engineer, I am producing myself at the moment.
Willing to do some gigs imperative. Live we can either use this time to find people or play to a backing track – we would almost certainly have to play to a drum machine/package anyway due to availability.
Would like someone to commit to a 3-year plan. Of course, the main thing is to get gigging by the new year (after Christmas) and plenty of writing and recording in the meantime.
Would like singer to handle Social Media promotion and attend/contribute to any other reviews/exposure we receive. I have about 80 contacts to add to whatever platform(s) we use.
I am making new contacts all the time and have some guaranteed exposure in a Leicester paper and may be Lincolnshire too. I also have potential management interest from two people/companies. But if we self promote I have a big index of the East and West Midlands circuit venues to approach for gigs.
I entered a performing arts competition and stand to win some money so hopefully the project will not be too thirsty on the finances! I also get an industry recognized person giving a critical review of each of the 5 submitted songs.
When I released my EP I gained favorable Webzine reviews and exposure on three radio stations with a feature on each of them.
Check out my channel which has some of the music on it: https://youtu.be/BFtGeg9bsUc
Ability to harmonize in the studio beneficial.
If local to me might be able to share transport (but I have a 2 seater van) so ideally have own transport.
Male or female around my age preferred (30-45) but will audition anyone with talent.
