New Band Debut Performance: The Dave Anderson Project

[Matt R.]

Hey guys, here are a couple clips of a new band I'm in. The other night was our first performance, which got violently rained out a short time into our set.

It's mostly power pop type stuff, but I think the first clip is my favorite so far. It's sort of R&B flavored. Hope you like. Audio is ok, it's just shot on my GoPro.

Good stuff! Congrats on your debut!

[Matt R.]

Thank you Tim!

[paulo]

Nice!!!
I like the 3 songs!

[Matt R.]

Thank you as well Paulo

[tim]

I think my favorite part is how the position of the mic overemphasizes the bass part

[Matt R.]

Haha. Yeah it's good to be the camera operator.

[andrew]

Good stuff, congratulations on taking it to the stage!

[Matt R.]

Thanks Andrew! A little rough around the edges, but it's getting there.

[AzWhoFan]

very good indeed Matt!

[Matt R.]

Thank you so much!

Great stuff Matt! I'll be honest - Tight is alright, more of a groovy jam song, but needs a B-section maybe? Welcome is cool in a techno/Beatles sort of way, and I dig/am jealous of your light show and big screen!

I vote Ordinary Day your best band song - it's got a great feel in a Green Day sort of way, and is dance-able... as they used to say on the Dick Clark show, I'll give it a 99!

All great stuff, and fantastic musicians; what a fun band/project to be involved in!

[Matt R.]

Thanks man! I like Tight how it is, but you could be right. Hard to say right now, because it's a brand new one. I agree on the others. Ordinary Day is one that Dave and I played years ago in a band we had. I'm just psyched about the whole thing. I really appreciate you guys taking the time to listen and comment. Much, much love to all of you.

Awesome stuff and great tone! It's kinda funny how bass players have unique styles
that affect their sound. I like the subtlety of your popping style. (i.e. I don't pop, I push for that effect).

I dig getting to know each other like this. Thanks!

Great job! That's a nice greasy groove you've got goin' on there in the 1st song. And your tone's excellent.

I checked out some of your other videos. Cool stage effects and presentation too. What is that, a projection screen behind you guys?

[Matt R.]

Thanks man! Grease is the word, baby!

Great tunes Matt! I like "Ordinary Day" the most of the three you posted. I also dig "Seraphina" (found it on YouTube) - killer intro reminds me of The Cult or The Mission:

Cool, thanks man! Yeah, my GoPro actually cut out halfway through Seraphina. Glad you like!

Nice tunes! Is that an M900 on an 810 fridge? Nice rig!!
