Elder Roche Looking For Musicians

Elder Roche

Hi,
I have spent the past 3 months in Northern California learning new styles, writing and touring for my 2nd Album. I am subsequently interested in working out ideas and seeing how things go from there.

My ideas are broad and my mind is very open. I am currently looking to work with creative and versatile musicians that are willing to join me before the pre-production stage of recording. I'll be touring the ass off the songs afterwards. Any instrument welcome at this stage.

Please find samples of my 1st album on myspace.

I hope to hear back from you soon.

Regards,

Elder Roche

That's where it was recorded. Where abouts in Cork are you? Believe me, If I got the chance to set-up and make money around West Cork I would call it home. It's my creative refuge.

Thanks for the compliments. Much appreciated!

Hi,
If you need someone to fill in on piano, organ or guitar in Dublin when you're short I might be of some help. Possibly not as accomplished as what you're after full-time but in terms of inspiration we may have a bit in common (Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen, Nina Simone, Will Oldham, Iron & Wine).

Hi Elder,
Was just wondering are you looking for any drummer/percussionists also a strong backing vocalist. clicked onto your myspace page had a listen and am ashamed to say hadnt heard your stuff before. Was totally blown away by it.
I think id be really suited to your sound. Would have 100% commitement and would be willing to do whatever it takes to make second album a sucess. Have great gigging exp and a bit of studio exp. mind you it was stuff me and life long friends recorded in a self built studio. But willing to work hard.
Give me PM if interested and we can exchange contact details
Also play Guitar but sure thats not relevent because by no means up to the standard you play. Was told by the mates to stick to the Drums so took that as a compliment.

Cheers

Elder Roche

Thanks for getting back to me. I appreciate your interest. I just hope that everyone involved will have your dedication. Unfortunately I have found a drummer, but if anything changes I will be more than happy to meet you for a jam.

Regards,

Elder Roche

Suspicious Dave

What are you looking for Elder? I might know a couple of fellows that would be very suited to your style.

Songs sound great by the way.

Homer Sexual

By timewaster do you mean someone who shows up but is useless or someone who doesn't show up at all?

Hey Elder,

Did you get the group together? Can't wait to see it in action!

Hi Elder
I'm a piano/keyboard player looking for something interesting. If you're putting together a band and looking for a piano player drop me a line.

Mick

Elder Roche

Hey man,

Thanks for you interest, but I'm actually a piano player myself.


Thanks!

Hey Elder
No disrespect but you're not that good that you couldn't take some advice from an old fart. The piano is the weakest part of your sound. But hey, good music and I wish you the best.
Mick

Elder Roche

Ha. Perhaps you're right. Who am I to not take advice from someone who hears so clearly the piano in the songs on myspace.

You're a genius Mick, whatever age you may be.
