The Discovery Series – Andy

So. Andy.
What is ‘The Discovery Series’?
It is, basically, a series of albums or EPs that showcase our individual artists. In some cases it’ll be their first recording experience in a studio, which makes it even more special. It’s a unique way of developing their talent, resulting in quite a raw sound, but it gives our artists a chance to experiment.
Who are the Discovery Artists?
They’re artists who are interested in pursuing music as a career, normally singing/songwriting, but they could have some other obscure musical talent, of course. Currently we’ve got three Discovery Artists working with us: Gus (who already has a digital EP ready for download), Michael, who has recently joined us at the tender age of 16, and Charlotte, who has only just discovered her passion for singing, lucky for us.
Why?
We’ve been working on this for quite a while, but by making the series official we allow the artists to go out, gig, create their own following and get real experience as solo artists, which, as well as studio time, is invaluable.
What Now?
So the plan is to continue recording two albums a year with the original Saturday Morning Canasta Club and keep ‘discovering’ new artists for the series…
