So a couple of days ago we had the some sort of showcase final.
And although we didn’t win it was still a great experience and we lost to an amazing band that definitely deserved to win.We also got noticed by a local record label called the honey label, they are interested in recording us and we are going to be meeting them soon to discuss further what will be happening.
So soon at Leicester College we have a singer songwriter named Newton Faulkner coming in. This will be a great opportunity to find out how he managed to get signed to a record label, whether he went out looking for them or if they came looking for him. How he chooses who he wants to play on his tracks and just generally what he does in his day-to-day normal life. This kind of thing is useful as it helps to give an insight into how there lives are.
Embedded is a song that I definitely like called clouds. I found it and just liked it straight away.
Over the weekend the band that I am part of (Ceaux Fly) took part in Dreaming in Colour Productions, Some Sort of Showcase. This is a battle of the bands style competition that offers an EP, a 7 day tour, merch and some other perks. We managed to get through the first heats with another band called Indra’s net on the , we were then in the same semi finals with them on saturday the 5th of march but unfortunately they didn’t get through, but we did so it was fine. We have got the finals on the 27th of March where we will be competing against 5 other bands for the prize.
As well as this we also have a lot of other gigs booked with Dreaming in COlour Productions. We are playing at the Brewdog music pub in leicester on the 26th of May, and at Natterjacks on the 26th of March, the 30th of April, the 19th and 28th of May, and the 25th of June.
The band has also recorded a few songs and will be recording more soon, these will be put on soundcloud and also put on facebook, I will link to these when they are published.
