1. Do you sing, play an instrument or instruments?

 

 

I play guitar for 3 to 4 years now and I sing for 2 years now. Both I first tried to learn all by myself but then I changed my mind and learned from more experienced persons and found teachers for both.

 

2. Are you in a band or bands?

 

Currently I go solo but I had a band called "Black.Box"

 

3. Do you write songs?

 

Yes I write songs, both music and lyrics and I had a writing partner once but that didn't worked out.

 

4. Do you record your music?

 

Yes, I have a small home studio. I'm mainly using a Scarlett 2i2 audio interface and a RODE NT2-A microphone, as well as a SHURE SM58. My DAW of choice is Reaper.

You can listen to it here: https://www.youtube.com/user/JasonINero

7. What country do you live in?

8. What are your ambitions?

 

The moment when a person has tears in the eyes because of something I wrote, play and sang - that's what I'm living for!

I want to find my place in the music business complex, preferably as artist of course :)

 

9. Do you draw/paint/write stories/computer art/dance or other creative pursuit?

 

I started drawing a few weeks ago and I hope that will help me to discipline myself.

Also I dance when no one's watching, does that count? :D

 

10. What would you like to get out of Songstuff?

 

I'd like to improve myself in every given way, get feedback on songs/lyrics and become part of this great creative community :)

Also I'd like to discover some new great artists.

Do you sing, play an instrument or instruments?  

Singing is my main thing, but I play guitar and piano as well.  I started singing formally and playing guitar in 2000, and playing piano in 1992.  My mom taught me to play piano, but I took voice lessons from a teacher starting in 2002.

 

Are you in a band or bands?  

I’m not currently in a band, but I would like to start one in the future.

 

Do you write songs? 

 I write both music and lyrics.  I am writing a song with someone right now, but I don’t typically write with a partner, though co-writing with people is something I would like to do more.

 

Do you record your music?   I’m recording in a studio right now.  I’d like to get some recording equipment though.  What I have recorded right now can be found at www.sonicbids.com/teresamae.

 

What other roles do you perform in the music business?

For the moment I’m a performing artist.  I would like to eventually teach and record as well.

 

Are you a tech head? 

I wouldn’t consider myself one, but I’m learning more and more every day!

 

 What country do you live in?

 The US of A J

 

What are your ambitions?

 My goal is to inspire people with music, and tour nationally as a performer.

 

Do you draw/paint/write stories/computer art/dance or other creative pursuit?

I like to make fun meals, and have dance parties in my apartment J

 

What would you like to get out of Songstuff?

I want to learn about song exercises and things to spark creativity.  I’m excited to meet other artists and learn from each other J

1. Do you sing, play an instrument or instruments?

 

Yes. I consider voice to be the first instrument.

 

What instruments?

 

Drums/Percussion, Bass, Guitar (acoustic), mandolin, accordion, voice.

 

When did you start playing?

 

Drums/percussion - 1984

Guitar - 2008

Bass - 2014

Mandolin - 2010

Accordion - 2009

Voice - 2008

 

Did you teach yourself?

 

I would say I'm about 75% self-taught on most of the instruments I play. 

 

2. Are you in a band or bands?

 

I've been in and out of bands since age 17.

 

What is the name of the band?

 

Too many to list. My most recent band was "The Possums".

 

What do you play?

 

In my most recent band, "The Possums" I was the drummer.

 

What other instruments are in the band?

 

Vocals/Harmonica

Bass/vocals

Guitar/vocals

 

Do you have a band website?

 

No. I'm not even sure if that band is still together.

 

3. Do you write songs?

 

Yes.

 

Do you write lyrics, music or both?

 

Both.

 

Do you have a writing partner?

 

No.

 

4. Do you record your music?

 

Yes.

 

Do you use a home studio? If so what gear do you use?

 

At first I was recording with a Tascam DR1 (field recorder). Now I record with either my computer (through the built in mic), or on my phone. I do it this way so that I can get the song idea down quick before I lose it.

 

Do you use a recording studio?

 

I have gone into local studios in the past to get a few of my songs done. But, to do it right it can be costly.

 

Do you have music available on the web? if so where?

 

No. I don't believe in offering my music for free. If I ever get to the point where I can publish my music, I will.

 

5. What other roles do you perform in the music business?

 

In the past I've done many different things, such as; graphic design, social media, roadie (lol), audio technician, coffee fetcher, booking, driver, PR, payroll/finances... 

 

6. Are you a tech head?

 

I am a bit technologically inclined. I can do basic things, but I haven't yet grasped home recording, which is my next hurdle.

 

7. What country do you live in?

 

America

 

8. What are your ambitions?

 

I would enjoy recording my material. And, I think this is a necessity because I spend most days with one of my songs running through my head so that I don't forget it. If I could record my songs then I could move forward. 

 

9. Do you draw/paint/write stories/computer art/dance or other creative pursuit?

 

At one point in my life I wanted to be a graphic designer. I studied fine art from a very young age and I have always been a "doodler". 

 

What are your pastimes?

 

Outside of music, I spend time with my daughter (including homework help), and the occasional sightseeing or hiking trip.

 

10. What would you like to get out of Songstuff?

 

I would like to get some honest feedback from others who don't know me so that I can find out if I really have an ability for lyric writing.

Sure, why don't give this one a try?

 

Do you sing, play an instrument or instruments?

I play instruments, and my singing ability is absolutely abysmal. I play piano/keyboard, and I started that crap roughly four years ago. Yes, I taught myself.


2. Are you in a band or bands?

I am in a band called Seismosphere with my friend John. We're primarily a studio band, so we use our keyboards for all instrumentation. Our website is a makeshift Blogger thing that can be located at seismosphere.blogspot.com


3. Do you write songs?

I write all of my compositions, mostly on my own. I collaborate with John, and while we mostly write our stuff separately, we of course run each track by each other and contribute our own ideas to the final product.


4. Do you record your music?
At home, yes. I have a very informal studio. It consists of my Yamaha keyboard and a tambourine, and anything I record is done through the keyboard's drives and is transferred to Audacity on my computer via flashdrive. Seismosphere's music is available on Soundcloud and YouTube.


5. What other roles do you perform in the music business?

I mean, we're an independent band, so if that counts as publishing and labeling, I have more useless crap to put on my resume now!

 

6. Are you a tech head?

No, I'm a flesh and blood head, thanks. 


7. What country do you live in?

The States of United America.


8. What are your ambitions?

To have my own Real Housewives reality TV series.


9. Do you draw/paint/write stories/computer art/dance or other creative pursuit?

I design cover art for Seismosphere's endeavors except for the times when I don't. 


10. What would you like to get out of Songstuff?
I'd like to gain a following, some critique, musical insight, and a place to discuss music, 'cause I didn't have any of that before.

 

Am I one of the cool kids now?
