Having a creative and capable recording engineer working on your project can make the difference bewteen a decent recording and a remarkable one. While you can outfit your bedroom with a DAW and a few quality mics for under $1000, in an attempt to do it yourself, recording and mixing an album is a ton of work that requires an objective perspective that you can quickly lose when you are trying to do it all by yourself.
"Oh our last and final name is Nirvana." - Kurt Cobain
When Kurt Cobain scribbled that diary entry into one of his spiral spiral-bound notebooks, he had knowingly or unknowingly come up with one of...if not the best band name of all time. It's simple, powerful, without extreme connotations, and ultimately enhanced and was enhanced by the music the band made. And it turns out that in 2014, it's pretty hard to come up with a decent, if not good band name.
While the prospects of ever seeing any financial return on the incalculable time and monetary investment that musicians put into their music continues to dwindle, there are more bands and more bands creating music for the right reasons. And some of them really kick ass.
Below is a list of 5 emerging artists or "baby bands" that you need to hear. These are small acts that are only just beginning to make their mark, but have a ton of potential and have been creating some awesome new music. They are mostly from the Northeast (sorry it's just what I know), so be sure to leave a comment to tell me about your favorite local bands in your area.
I also need to preface this list by saying that I am not very good at describing music, nor do I particularly like to do it. But I like these bands, so if you want to skip reading my copy and just listen to these bands...that works too.
OK, here is the list in no particular order...
