Hey All!
I've been a musician for years and after a few year hiatus and a recent move to Providence, I'm back at it. I've always regretted not pursuing a career in music, and with my wife recently completing grad school and my recent unhappiness in my job, I've decided that at 35 it's not too late and want to begin the pursuit again. I'm still debating going back to school, and if so what I'll go back for. Either education or audio production. In the meantime I'm working on writing more, practicing more, recording more and performing again. It's not easy, especially when you move to an already active music scene and don't know anyone, and you're working a day job. But I've been meeting some great people at the local open mics around me and trying to support the local acts around town when they have shows. I know there's a musician forum, but let's face it, maybe 5 people check that section once a month. I see threads for new bands to check out and new albums to listen to, so I thought it would be cool for the other active musicians on the site to share what we "local musicians" have been working on and maybe gain a little exposure. I hope this thread is alright here in nDMBc and if not, my apologies. It's not my intention to grovel for new listeners, but just a chance to support some local talent that haven't "made it big" and are looking to get feedback on what's sounding good and maybe what we can work on.
Looking forward to hearing some of your music and maybe some of the music from your area. This is not a thread solely for music acts. If there's a local band in your area you want to share, please do!
Here are the links to my SoundCloud, YouTube and Facebook pages I hope you enjoy, and I'm always open to feedback.
