Writing for other artists

Lately I have been working on some songs for a songwriter in LA that has connections to some big time producers there.  The hope is to get a demo into the hands of a certain female singer and have her record it for her next CD.  It is funny singing these early demos, especially when they are sung from the female perspective.  I think my testosterone is getting in the way of an inspired performance lol!  Got the fingers crossed…

Fear Zero and Microsoft offer you a FREE download and…

even though the song is free, Microsoft is kicking us 50 cents per download so it is a win win situation!  Please download the song at http://www.myspace.com/windows?homepage=fearzero and then let us know what you think.

If you like it, send the gift around to all your friends, it’ll help us pay back the bill for the studio time it took to record it lol!

We have a couple of shows coming up in the interior.  We are heading back to play Villager’s Pub in Fruitvale on July 10, and then we play an outdoor benefit concert called Cars, Concerts and Causes in Trail BC at Gyro park starting at 6 pm with guests BlackLightProphet.

Shooting rock videos

Hello again everyone!

Recently Fear Zero shot a couple of rock videos for release with our CD in the (hopefully) near future.  I just wanted to talk about the experience, maybe destroy a few myths and let you know what it is really like.

We have shot 4 videos now bearing the Fear Zero name.  If you are a fan you have only seen one of those so far and there is a reason.  Shooting a video is a bit of an art.  On top of trying to capture the essence of the song in the form of a storyline, you have to also capture the image that the band is trying to project.  If you are doing the videos independently like we do, that can be a real challenge considering the fact that most videos you see on VH1/Muchmusic cost tens of thousands of dollars.

T-shirt salesman – the new musician

Hi everyone, back for another round of blogging.  I have been doing a lot of thinking about how the music business has been affected by the internet, downloading and now of course the economy.

One friend recently said to me that a CD is like a business card.  I agree but damn those are expensive business cards!
