Dude! CD
When people drink Oceanside Ale Works' Dude Double IPA, that's what they say..."DUDE!" A beer this great deserves a song so I wrote one. From there this project has taken off and been a blast to create!
What Is the Dude! CD Gonna Sound Like?
I've been influenced by so many different types of music and musicians. Bee Gees to AC/DC, Van Halen to Segovia, Beethoven to the Beatles...rock, pop, flamenco, jazz, Latin, classical, modern, avant garde....
Molding these diverse influences into an exciting listening experience for music and guitar lovers, while time consuming and challenging has been extremely rewarding and I can't wait for you to hear the finished product! There will still be a Latin tinge to some of the songs but not the same focus as Reflections of San Diego.
What We Need...
Your contributions will be key in making this project shine its brightest! The creative perks we are offering, I believe, will in return equally compensate you for your support of this project! Special thanks to Mark Purciel, Brewmaster at Oceanside Ale Works for his generous support in offering perks to you the contributors!
Recording will take place at Track Star Studios in La Mesa, CA, just a few miles from where I grew up in San Diego. They are amazing and I am beyond excited to complete this project with their superhuman-musical & technical talents!
However, recording and releasing a CD does have associated costs.
100% of contributions received will go towards recording, artwork (Britnee Sapp Designs), CD production, as well as, associated costs. If we don't reach the goal, funds will still go to the project, although corners may have to be cut a bit on the production side(NOT THE MUSIC). Any amount over the goal will go towards making this project above and beyond its already above and beyondness!!
