In Basements: In Isolation & Bandcamp goodies!
NEW PROJECT ALERT! As some of you may know, I’ve been spending a lot of my Sunday nights at Wenona Lodge, a bar here in Toronto. In the basement we’ve been putting on special performances, trying to foster a community of great musicians. Because of the COVID-19, we’ve had to postpone these shows. But I was hoping to keep this community together and creative, so I suggested the In Basements Mixtape: In Isolation. We sent a message to all the people who’ve been a part of our Sunday series, asking them to record a song at home, using only the instruments and gear they have available. This will be an ongoing project, with submissions coming in until the pandemic has passed. OH AND IT’S LAUNCHED! You can here the first few tracks, including my new low-fi tune “When No 1’s Around”, right here!
Bandcamp!
Do you know Bandcamp? Bandcamp is an online site for streaming or buying music. The difference between this and say, spotify, is that it actually pays a pretty good rate! And today (Friday March 20th), they’re waiving the fee they usually take! So 100% of all sales will go to the artists! How great is that? So below you’ll find linked my two main projects; Shawn William Clarke & Will Moor. If you were hoping to help support local music, now’s the time! Stay healthy my friends.
