Hey .. welcome to the world of Bootslam Music.
This is a project put together by myself in association with Gavin Fisher Music Productions .. my production company.
I have, over the past few years been working with various musicians in several studios in the UK, (and also online using file sharing), putting together templates & backing tracks of song ideas i have written. This has been a great experience & has enabled me to experiment with the the input of many talented artists & create some great music. I love to write new material & then allow people to be as creative as they feel .. rather than telling them what to play ! This gives the opportunity for musicians to add their own interpretation of the music & play what they hear. It also lets the tracks unfold in directions that i could never create by myself. A unique way for artists to bounce ideas amongst themselves & play comfortably .. thus bringing the best out of everyone.
I am currently looking for a soulful artist/vocalist to work on all 10 tracks alongside the fantastic vocalists that have already performed backing vocals for me. Many tracks are written already but there are several tracks ready for songwriters to write their own lyrics & melodies if they wish.
Artists that have performed for me so far include :
Vocals: Linda Lewis, Paul Lewis, Claire Martin, Valerie Etienne, Melanie Young & Rita Campbell.
Guitar: Mark Jaimes.
Bass: Franc O'Shea, Tim Walker & Sigurdor Gudmondssun.
Drums: Tristan Banks & Andy Gangadeen.
Programming: Kieron James & Steve Everitt.
Pre Production mixes are being posted as they evolve at: www.gavinfishermusic.bandcamp.com & www.facebook.com/Bootslam.Music
Details of musicians and my work are available at:
www.myspace.com/gavinfishermusic & www.myspace.com/gfmproductions
I am currently looking for some artwork for the album & website for this project.
I shall blog all progress as it happens & look forward to hearing from anyone who would like to be involved.
Peace .. Gavin.
