Overview
I’m incredibly excited to announce the release of my third, all instrumental album ‘A Tweak On Antique’ available December 21, 2018 This album has been in the works for some time and I’ve truly put my heart and soul into the record. I can’t express how thrilled I am to be finally sharing this with YOU and the rest of the world!

Concept For A Tweak On Antique. 

Going into this record my priority was to pay tribute to the forefathers of fingerstyle guitar, such as Merle Travis, Chet Atkins and Jerry Reed.

My next task was to ‘Tweak the Antique’ by recapturing the vintage vibes of their classic albums then modernising it with contemporary ideas. Incorporating my own personality into this created a sound that’s new, fresh and exciting to listen to!

 

Creation Of A Tweak On Antique.

The work began in Wales at Rockfield Studios. My brother Gethin Pearson produced the groundwork of the album by recording all the band arrangements and backing instrumentation. Gethin instinctively knew the direction I had for this project and I had complete trust in him to produce the strong foundation this album needed to build on.

From there, I traveled to Milwaukee to record with owner and founder of Candyrat Records, Rob Poland, using guitars that are featured on iconic Candyrat recordings and videos. 

I’ve recorded with Rob on my previous Candyrat releases (Urban Echoes Vol.1 + Urban Echoes Vol.2). It’s always a blast to record in his company and the laid back atmosphere he brings along to the sessions. 

Finally, I arrived in Montreal where I had Antoine Dufour do the final mixing and mastering on the record. Antoine is notorious for his sound engineering as well as being a world class guitar player. Having him complete the finishing touches on this album instilled in me all the confidence to know that the end result would be everything I had envisioned it to be.    

 

Featured Musicians.

The most exciting aspect I can share about this album is that it features collaborative works with some of the most incredible musicians in the world, along with some very dear friends of mine. 

These include; Tommy Emmanuel C.G.P,  Jeff Coffin (Bela Fleck & the Fleck Tones/ Dave Matthews Band), Daniel Pugsely (Skindred), Dave Newington (Boy Azooga), Dean (Beat Technique) Yhnell, Greg Coulson, and Pasha Lychagin.

Having these musicians sharing their gifts and talents not only took my music to a higher level, but they were able to help turn my vision into a reality. With everything that went into it I’m proud to say that this is my best work to date by far. 

 

Why Indigogo?

Indigogo campaigns are commonly announced before a project is brought to life, allowing the artist/band to create a hype, while at the same time taking the fanbase along the musical journey. 

I knew in my heart this album would have a few hurdles to face. I made the decision from the start to focus 100% of my efforts on the task at hand, moving to first complete the album prior to making my campaign announcement. 

And the great news is, the album is finally finished and ready to be released! 

But the work doesn’t stop here, and this is where I need your help and support.

The next step in my vision is to film high quality music videos that capture the true spirit of this album, A Tweak On Antique. This will not only help to promote the album, but also showcase a side of my music and personality that has never been seen before. 

With the funds raised I will not only be filming music videos for the entire album, but will be making a full length instructional course for ATOA. Incorporating multiple camera angles, this will allow you to study and learn these pieces from me, up close and personal

In addition to that, backed by popular demand, I will be creating instructional videos on songs from my previous albums! 

 

Contribution/Support/Rewards!!!

By contributing and showing your support to help create and promote this project, you will become very much apart of the soul and spirt of the album. 

To express my sincere gratitude for your contributions I have complied a selection of REWARDS to choose from!  

Thank you so much for all your love and support. I’m incredibly excited to take the next step in this journey with you! 

 

Much love to you all,

Gareth x
