http://virb.com/spires CASTING CALL: I am currently seeking Cape Cod area musicians to perform the music I have written, along with some great NES covers. Currently, I'm in the process of building a triple-concept-album entitled Triptych of Moribund Flights. The trilogy's prime end is to recount the rise and account for the death of fantasy as way of life. Semi-autobiographically, the music serves as a illustrative narrative while grandeur becomes reality over the course of three indulgent musical dreamscapes -- where each of the three albums ultimately resolves with the victory of realized grandeur in three interconnected realms: the internal (self), the interpersonal (love), the external (politics & society). In each of the three albums, I use a castle as a conceptual anchor -- the castle takes on three different forms, functioning as a new point of reference with new significance, with regards to the realm involved. The 3 albums are 10 songs each, a full 70 minutes and linked conceptually. Intertwined therein, NES music arouses nostalgia and aids conceptual development where appropriate. In a live setting, the NES covers may take a more prominent role. Please contact me at spires1776@gmail.com if you wish to collaborate on this exciting project. As completed, Spires would be a large band consisting of: 2 bassists (one bassist would move between rhythm guitar and bass according to the song) 2 keyboardists a vocalist (probably me) a percussionist (experience on chimes is necessary) a lead guitarist a drummer All band members will probably contribute background vocals.]]> Virb 2.0 (@spires) en http://virb.com/spires/posts/status/5388838 Thu, 08 Oct 2009 20:13:21 -0700 http://virb.com/spires/posts/status/5388838 http://virb.com/spires/audio/447815 Thu, 08 Oct 2009 19:12:15 -0700 http://virb.com/spires/audio/447815 http://virb.com/spires/posts/status/2092632 Sun, 22 Feb 2009 22:24:02 -0800 http://virb.com/spires/posts/status/2092632 http://virb.com/spires/posts/status/2085360 Sun, 22 Feb 2009 06:08:37 -0800 http://virb.com/spires/posts/status/2085360 http://virb.com/spires/posts/status/2082700 Sat, 21 Feb 2009 20:00:28 -0800 http://virb.com/spires/posts/status/2082700 http://virb.com/spires/audio/90666 Mon, 28 May 2007 21:39:22 -0700 http://virb.com/spires/audio/90666 http://virb.com/spires/audio/28062 Mon, 12 Mar 2007 02:32:05 -0700 http://virb.com/spires/audio/28062 http://virb.com/spires/audio/28057 Mon, 12 Mar 2007 02:25:13 -0700 http://virb.com/spires/audio/28057 http://virb.com/spires/audio/28053 Mon, 12 Mar 2007 02:20:53 -0700 http://virb.com/spires/audio/28053 http://virb.com/spires/audio/28050 Mon, 12 Mar 2007 02:12:20 -0700 http://virb.com/spires/audio/28050 http://virb.com/spires/audio/28041 Mon, 12 Mar 2007 02:00:26 -0700 http://virb.com/spires/audio/28041 http://virb.com/spires/audio/28038 Mon, 12 Mar 2007 01:56:02 -0700 http://virb.com/spires/audio/28038 http://virb.com/spires/audio/28007 Mon, 12 Mar 2007 01:05:22 -0700 http://virb.com/spires/audio/28007 http://virb.com/spires/audio/27975 Mon, 12 Mar 2007 00:17:59 -0700 http://virb.com/spires/audio/27975
