New Tracks and More Coming…
So I’ve been busy over the last month or so, writing and recording.
As you know, I’m drumming in a band again. I was going to leave it at that after my last band experience where I was writing everything. But I got the bug again and wrote four epic tracks in a week. We’ve been working on these tracks over the last three weeks and put some vocals down on a track called “Blissfully Unaware”. I’d recorded the whole track myself and sent it over to Victoria to create the lyrics and vocal lines. Once she’d done that, I arranged the backing vocals and got Jessica to record the backing vocals.
If you like heavy alt-rock like Paramore, you’ll love the track.
I also completed a track called “Travellin’” for a sing/songwriter Amanda Shaw. Again, recorded it all myself and got Amanda in to record her vocals. It’s a very epic song with a full, massive, soaring strings arrangement and twiddly guitar solo (ONE TAKE WONDER!)
We’re releasing the track on iTunes, HMV, Amazon etc. as a single on the 10th of August and I’ll be posting all the links on here so you can all go and buy it and get it in the charts!
You can hear both the tracks on my own MySpace: http://myspace.com/forbescoleman

So yeah; that’s what I’ve been up to recently. I have another job on for Julian Gabriah with a song called “Fly”. I started this today, just getting a rough drum and acoustic guitar track down. Will be working on pianos, keys and other guitars tomorrow. Should have the first review copy sent to Julian by the end of the week.
