Fake Gods - acoustic folk/rock

hi everyone, nice to be on Mudcat. Hope you're all well.

I am singer/songwriter with acoustic/folk-rock band Fake Gods from central Scotland. We recently recorded album of demos entitled 'Wine To Water' which can be streamed or downloaded for free in its entirety at www.fakegods.bandcamp.com 'Wine To Water' also features 3 of our own compositions along with covers from many other favourites such as The The, Son Volt, R.E.M, Richard Shindell, James Grant and the Tragically Hip.

Our website www.fakegods.com has a short biography explaining who we are, what we do, our influences, etc. We have begun to write for our first album proper, and we intend to book studio time and work with a producer on this project in due course (recording everything ourselves was just too much hassle and distraction). We are always on the lookout for gigs or other bands/artists to play with so if you know of any opportunities, we would be delighted to hear about them.

I would really appreciate any feedback whatsoever, good or bad as this is our first foray into the world of writing and recording. Bear in mind though that these are just demos!

Cheers,
Alex

Alex -- I like your songs a lot! Good songwriting. The full-fledged CD will allow you to flesh out different arrangements so you get some variety of sound between the songs. Being a guitarist, I found myself humming leads while listening.

Best of luck with your project!

Cheers,
Michael

Hi, Alex -
I listened to most of the music on your Website, and I liked it quite a bit. I prefer more traditional stuff, but your music is very good.
