Mission 1
Here to get started on blogging and developing a strategy for my music as I try and build up enough material for a distribution release.
Who Dat?
OK so I'm a musician. Been in bands my whole life. As a bass player/vocalist for a lot of years. Exclusively as a vocalist for a while after that. I've recorded in professional studios and played a side stage at a major venue. Played live in bars for most of my musical existence. Now my journey brings me to developing my own music from the ground up! It's been a heck of a journey! 2 years ago I started trying to write, record, and produce my own music in a vacuum. Those early recordings were rough and should be killed... with FIRE! As time marches on and I've been committed to figuring this thing out I think the songs are getting to a state of listener palpability... which is nice!
One Foot in Front of the Other
So what are my next steps? Well I have to decide how and where I'm going to consolidate my musical efforts. On these boards I use a nick name someone gave me long ago. Scotto. Better than Scotty by a mile. I also use 6 Pack Guru for getting all of my reviews on the forums and such via Soundcloud and Soundclick. Song sketches can be rough and folks can be harsh so keeping my sketches and projects somewhat separate from a final release seemed like a good idea at the time. Now I wonder. Finally my live performance acoustic folk rock duo thing is called Soul Punch. I've been writing things that fit into this mold lately so I might steer all of my material that way. There's another song writer I work with for this effort. Strength in numbers potentially! Once all this is decided... well... I'll need a promotion plan. CD Baby, Reverbnation andTunecore Oh My! So many avenues and possibilities to decide on.
It's a major task to just get my shtick together!
