Hello Louisville!
In December 2013, teacher and sound designer Gabriel Walker resolved to get back into music, with the goal of forming a band and performing a six-song set by the end of 2014.
September Update:
I finally made it to Louisville! I am living at the OPEN Gallery — an artist live/work space, gallery, and performance venue. My new living situation is ideal in that I have rehearsal and performance space and access to many of Louisville’s creative artists. In the last week alone, I’ve met painters, photographers, burlesque performers, musicians, dancers, drag kings, and performance poets. Soooo good for my creative soul.
Jenroseand I have started working on a new piece and are refining the pieces we have already written. We have the material for the 6 song showcase— 4 original and 2 cover songs. We have secured a venue for the performance, and are now looking for musicians. A bass player and and drummer who is adept at brush work is critical.
