I just signed up for an artist profile on bandcamp and it’s actually a great site! I know I slammed the hell out of the site in the past but I’ll have a change of heart with it, I guess. My upcoming internet-only album will probably get exclusively released on bandcamp. That is probably the best site. I won’t make people pay for it, though so I’ll just leave the “free or more” option unchecked.
Why won’t I make people pay for my music even if I can if I wanted? It’s because I never did music for the money! I don’t care about money when playing music. I just love making the music and sharing it with people. That’s what it should really be about. That’s how local music used to be anyway but in this day and age local bands and musicians want people to buy your music when you don’t have to. There’s nothing wrong with giving out your music free.
When I’m ready to release the album, I’ll come up with a cover and title for it. As for the cover, it won’t be anything fancy. Probably will just be me holding the guitar on the front of it. There’s a professional photographer I know in Greenwich who I will probably work with for that, he could take me some really cool shots ’cause he’s one of the best photographers I’ve seen.
When I’m ready to release this album, I’ll announce a release date by posting a teaser video giving you a small clip of each song on it.
Can’t wait to get these songs out there. I think this is my best work yet, in my opinion and hopefully other people will agree.
