A2 COURSEWORK - MUSIC PROMO

SEARCHING FOR A BAND 

Over the summer, I began my search for a band or musician with original music to use in my A2 Project Music Promo. I did this through many means, from attending local open mic nights to asking my friends across social media platforms if they knew anyone with original music interested in having their track used in a music video and who would also like to star in it. 

Initially I went to Open Mic nights in the local Harris & Hoole to try and find unsigned artists with their own music that I actually liked although I wasn't too successful. 

Eventually after searching through SoundCloud, Facebook and Twitter for a musician to use, an old friend George who used to be in a band but since losing contact he has started as a solo artist and has his written his own music. 

I saw him over the summer and told him about the project and asked if I could use his music and if he would like to be in it, to which he said yes and to send him all of the details. 
I then reached out to him on Facebook and the conversation is posted below.
