Artist Bio
Influences: Captain Beefheart, Brian Eno, Syd Barrett, The Beatles, Neil Young, Groucho Marx, Buck Owens, King Crimson, Gentle Giant, BA Johnston, Frank Zappa, Robert Wyatt, Van der Graaf Generator, CAN, plus whoever else I can rip off without anyone noticing.
I live out in the woods of Southern Ontario, Canada, near Peterborough.
Some of my songs will be written and played on the ukulele, either acoustic or electric.
And Melodica. Probably lots of weirdo Melodica.
Also some piano as well as whatever other instruments I have lying around.
There will be a fair amount of strange noise and experimental-type stuff.
This is my tenth FAWM, believe it or not!
And finally, two great quotations that express my attitude toward FAWM and 50/90;
“Musical structure? Frankly, I don't see what you need all those sandbags for, just to keep your river in place.” - Captain Beefheart
"Earlier eras of pop music were characterized not by the search for perfection but by bizarre enthusiasms, small budgets, erratic technique, crummy equipment and wild abandon." - Brian Eno

OK, I'll work on something once FAWM starts & send you the results. And yeah, thanks for the comment on the pic. It's something I put together in a great little 3d fractal program I've got.

You still up for a collab? If I send you bed-tracks (WAV files) & you play with them, would that work? Or did you have something else in mind? Let me know.

Thanks for the welcome! I love your quote of Eno's... sums up part of why I love him - his insight is as important as his music.

Holy crap! We both joined FAWM at the same time!! 2011! I didn't realize that ... I don't recall you from FAWM 2011. Probably my terrible memory more than anything else. hehe
I'm touched that you remember me! Tentatively, I plan to write/record at least 1 or 2 new tunes in February, plus listen to the work of other FAWMers. It's been quite a while since I've created any new music. Should be fun! But we shall see what happens ....
Cheers, Mr. Fuzzy! -
