The Vanguard presents
A Star Pilot from Saturn (Solo // Piano) - Album Fundraiser
7:00pm, Tue 27 October, 2020
The Vanguard, NSW
With Special Guest Darby
---------------------
Let me catch my breath. Apologies.
I’ve spent the last two and a half years in a state of advanced inebriation thanks to writing, recording and producing my debut record.
Though let’s not lie to each other – who doesn’t enjoy being absolutely wasted on that which sustains us.
Though any independent artist will tell you that between mass elation, unbridled creation, having to not bargain with stability and landing gently upon the sounds that exist within the mind – Independency is more stifling than being dragged through the desert with a bag over your head.
What I’m trying to say is I can’t do this by myself anymore.
So I’ve put together two separate and relatively chaotic sets that I will perform entirely on piano.
Including songs I hardly play or did not quite make the record.
Not only has this been a borderline sexual desire of mine for years – I am doubling this show as a fundraiser to get my record over the line so I can finally release it.
Releasing music is difficult – and most of us are not clearing sweat from our foreheads with hundred dollar bills.
Mastering, printing, merchandise it all stacks up quicker than a share house sink.
There will be a target and various ways to contribute which I will illuminate during the sets.
Suffice to say I’ve been starved to near-death having not been on an empty stage since February.
Let's be each other's company - and if you can, help me thrust my last two years of creativity out into the world.
