* WANTED: FEMALE VOCALIST/LYRICIST FOR MINIMALIST SLOWCORE PROJECT *
WHO I AM: I am a 48-year-old guitarist who is deeply in love with music that moves my heart. I have a day job, so music is not how I make my living. However, music is what makes me live. I have been involved in numerous music projects spanning the gamut of genres during the past three decades, but my desire from here on out is to commit myself to one project with the express intention of creating beautiful music that is serene, spacious, sentimental, and able to provide a perfect canvas for vivid vocal harmonizing. This is where you come in.
WHO YOU ARE: I am looking for a dedicated and passionate partner with whom to launch this project and collaborate frequently here in the Gravesend section of Brooklyn. What is required is that you sing in tune, are comfortable crafting vocal harmony parts, and are willing to be an active participant in the songwriting process. I am seeking someone who sincerely wishes to be an integral component in an ongoing artistic partnership. Should you also happen to play an instrument, that could potentially complement my own playing and add layered texture and dimension to our sound.
WHO WE ARE: Our primary objective will be to make music, not money. Our sound will be characterized by slow tempos, atmospheric ambience, minimalist arrangements, and aural explorations anchored by interwoven male/female vocal harmonies. Our sound will hopefully also be haunting or haunted. (I'd happily take either.) Although this project will commence as a duo, I remain open to the idea of expanding our roster to incorporate additional personnel based on our sonic needs as we move ahead.
WHO THEY ARE: While I obviously cannot offer sound samples of a project that does not yet exist, I can instead offer some comparable points of reference. There are quite a few established recording artists who have acted as catalysts in cultivating my interest in music of this nature over the years and have transformed the trajectory of my own original music's course. Among the most influential of them are Low, Red House Painters, October Project, Heligoland, Rosewater Elizabeth, Spokane, Bluetile Lounge, Ethel Cain, The American Analog Set, Phoebe Bridgers, and Carissa's Wierd.
WHAT TO DO: Contact me if you are interested and we can discuss the project in greater depth. If possible, please include samples of your vocal work as well as any relevant information pertaining to your musical background. Should you happen to feel that you are lacking in experience, rest assured that having the right heart and introspective vision will more than make up for that. Finding a proper partner for this project has not exactly proven to be the easiest of tasks thus far, but perhaps that alone has made the search all the more endearing to me.
