Not that anyone is really reading my blogs(I should probably talk to people but whatever), but if you havent noticed I pretty much have 2 things going for me right now, my family/girlfriend and my band. If you haven't checked out my band, please do. You might like what you hear. Anywho, I figured that if you listen to the songs and wanted to know what they were about I would be more than happy to explain them.
We're incredibly influenced by 3 very different genres of music. I am a huge fan of Blues/Classic Rock/Pop Punk(ie Muddy Waters, AC/DC and Say Anything), my drummer is a fan of Prog Rock/Metal(ie Dream Theatre and Night Wish) and my bassist is a Jazz man, plain and simple(ie John Coltrain and Miles Davis). We actually started out with just me and my drummer and we convinced our now bassist to come and jam with us and it sort of stuck that way. The majority of our songs came out of jams that would last 20-40mins and we would pick parts that we liked and the flowed well together and would condense them for the studio to 5-6mins songs. The fun part is that I dont always play guitar and my bassist doesnt always play bass and my drummer doesnt always play drums. Andrew(drummer) plays the keys as well and is going to be learning the bass. Christian(bassist) plays guitar and a little bit of drums and keys. I play bass and really want to learn keys and drums.
Our current cd is called "...Is Here" and is basically our foot in the door, if you will. the track listing is as follows:
1. Thom Jungle Harmony
2. One Way Road
3. For The Better
4. Take Me By The Hand
5. Juno
6. Midnight Blues
7. Carson City Train Robbery
Tracks 1 & 7 are instrumentals
Tracks 2 & 6 are blues tunes
Tracks 3 & 5 are acoustic songs(we're redoing Juno for our second album)
Track 4 is a piano ballad cuz who doesnt like a sappy piano ballad
there's a brief overview of Carson but if you want to know more please drop me a comment or whatever you want, i would love to talk your ear off about the band or music/movies/stories in general
