Most of you on here do not know me personally so I thought I would share something with you. My other passion, other than cars, is music. I am an acoustic/rock musician and have been doing it for a few years now. I thought I would share my site with you and get some feedback.
I didn’t go to HS in QBY, I went to Argyle haha. But I live in Queensbury on Glen Lake. I know a lot of people from QBY though, well a few anyway. Thanks.
I like your music Adam, I’d add you but once you have one musician a million more start to bombard you. I have a friend who plays a similar style music his site is http://www.mattkallish.com/index.cfm you can listen to his songs through the player on the bottom of the window. Another band I know that you should check out is Making April http://www.myspace.com/makingapril the bassist is one of my friends brothers, they have done a brilliant job of marketing themselves in an unorthodox fashion, and its working. Do you have a CD? Your sound is a mix of a lot of different musicians I like, a little like: Howie Day, Freddy Johnson, Pete Yorn, Wilco, John Mayer, Ben Harper; if you haven’t heard any of the listed artists you should check them out.
I’ve played a few instruments over the years, but never got into a rock band, I realized I didn’t have what it would take, but I am a huge music fan, over 2,500 CD’s and way over 10,000 songs on my computer.
Thank you. It’s great that your into music as much as you are. Yea, I have heard of Making April. They were a big inspiration for me when I first started writing. I would like to add a few more songs with Piano, like they have. It makes for a really great sound when accompanied by acoustics. Today is the first time I listened to Matt Kallish, he sounds good. Kind of a 90’s era feel to it. I like it.
Making April is coming to Troy in the next few months if you want to meet them I’m sure it would be no problem, Greg(the bassist) is one of my good friends brothers, let me know.
I have some news! There are some minor indy labels interested in my music! I have auditions and all that coming up this year so i’m really excited. When I mean minor, its a BIG deal becuase you get your songs played on TV shows, Movie soundtracks, and if it gets enough attention then the major labels will pick you up.
But to help along I would like to sell 10,000 CD’s by December, which will also get the labels attention. I usually sell them for $10, but if anyone is interested I am selling them for $5 for the next 10 days. If you are interested in helping out or showing your support please go to my site, Adam Valastro Music and purchase options are available there. Thanks for your time.
