It’s no secret I grew up listening to the Cure, Joy Division, Xymox, Cocteau Twins, and Depeche Mode; I had the hair and wardrobe to prove it. “Where’s the funeral?” Wouldn’t you like to know!
Chorus and Flange is something I worked on over the summer of 2016 with a singer – amazing talent with some notable international acclaim, but right before recording, they suddenly had to take time off from everything for a bit, as people sometimes need to do – which ended up being a few years.
So, it came down to just me: writing, performing all the instruments, recording, engineering, and now, singing. While it can be said, technically, that I am an internationally known vocalist (a couple dozen people across four continents are doing a lot of heavy lifting), I am aware my voice is, to put it mildly, limited. I tried to make it work. At least it’s a genre that can be forgiving.
