Autumn Time - A Time For Change
9 years ago
The green noodle speaks...
So, good news and bad news since my last journal.
Good news is that over the summer, my band and I made an EP, played a few shows, and had the time of our lives doing all of that :3. Bad news is that yesterday, we broke up.
Once we brought in our lead guitarist, the entire band had changed, and it was a good change. But, some of us became more focused on hitting the scene and making it big as soon as possible with music that would help do that right away (i.e. 80's hard rock), while some of us were ok with finding our sound first and experimenting a bit, even if that meant taking time to find our audience. In the end, these two mindsets weren't working together, and even though we made some good music out of it, we knew that things had to come to an end before we all hated each other.
Luckily, things ended peacefully and we were all mutual about it. We're all still good friends, and we wish each other well with our next music projects :3. For me, that'd be going back to doing my solo stuff I used to post on here years ago, except this time I'd take alot more time to work on the songs to make them the best they can be. Before, I just mass produced as many ideas I had as possible :P.
I'm hoping that by the end of this year, I'll have a 5 song EP done with all fresh songs I'll be writing for the rest of the month. I already have a few ideas, and I'll use one thing I already made that was gonna be for the band, but never truly got to be used uwu. Hopefully you'll like what will come out this upcoming winter. I'm so pumped to start working on it now :D.
Along with that, I'll be playing in my cover band that I formed earlier this summer still, just to have fun with some other friends and still do some performing on the side, and I'll be doing some producing and engineering for one of my former bandmates's project with a good friend of his :3. He's a really good guitarist and singer, and she's an incredibly beautiful singer. If you love jazzy/indie stuff, you'll love what they'll be releasing in the future o:
So yeah, good things are going to be happening for the rest of 2016. Another chapter in my life ended yesterday, and a new one begins today :3.
