Well, after a lot of talking, some gear swaps and a very fun period of tracking and recording, I've got an EP together. On Friday, I'm going to release it to the world, and see what happens. I've already decided that making it was fun enough to make me want to another.
I've put out 15 albums as a singer, but never believed in my playing enough to stand behind it as an instrumentalist and actually put something out that doesn't hide behind lyrics.
And, to top it off, last Friday I had the pleasure of launching my first single, a song called 'Refractive'. For anyone who wants to have a listen, it's here:
The EP will come out on Friday, and features my Jackson SL7, along with my Caparison TAT Special and my Helix, basically trying to recreate the 1980s with a seventh string. It's been really fun to create what I like, on my own, in my studio, and basically just do whatever comes to my mind.
I'd like to thank everyone here for the awesome gear discussions I've had along the years, all the way back in 2002 when I was deciding what guitar to buy, and onward. I'd like to say to anyone who is considering releasing their music, but holding back because you think that what you're doing isn't interesting, DO IT. Even if noone ever listens to it, you'll have so much fun along the way that the journey will be worth it. And who knows, someone might just give it a listen too!
