Okay. You see, John. There are still LOADS of active singer songwriters that get support and notice from local communities, I think Alan said something about it in one of his posts not too long ago. It all depends on what the current trend in the local music scene is. I'm not quite sure what kind of music is played mostly in your area, but trust me, singer song writers can still bring the hype. I tend to find that it depends on which performing acts your stuck between. I find that softer singer songwriter stuff tends to be heard more when you're between two louder acts. But that's just how it goes with my experiences. Another thing is that when bands play loud it gets people excited!
Okay! With that being said, my contribution to this thread: How does one make something accessible as possible? My band is currently thinking on incorporating aspects of the genre of math rock (songs that are just in weird timings like 6/8 for instance) into our sound. However, as much as I love this genre, some of the music isn't very accessible to a wide audience. Any advice on how to take something strange and make it work?
