You can stream it here for no cost: Sean Siegfried - Backwoods I guess the best way to describe it is to mention names like John Fahey, Dave Evans (the wonderful Welsh singer-songwriter) and Bert Jansch. My attempt at mimicking the mood and melody of a traditional is in the second song, "Apples In Winter" - a slower version of an Irish Jig. I'm also wondering about good places to submit, in order to reach people who might enjoy the music I've put on it. If anyone has any tips I'd be very grateful! Love, Sean |

Wesley, I used a Tanglewood "Masterdesign" TSM 2 for all tracks except the first one, "Sam's Brewery", which is the sound of a Guild GAD 30. I use medium gauge strings and compound nails, which helps define the tone a lot for me. Michael, I'll submit to Pandora and start working through all the suitable radio stations I can find. Thanks for the advice so far! |
