so here are some new tunes....they're not quite done yet...but i figured id put tem up anyway.
The new album shoud be due out in late july/early august. I hope that you enjoy them and appreciate the new direction of the environment.
Yeah,
Low Stakes Environment is the product of a stifled jazz guitarist, AKA Grant King. This is his attempt at making a pop album.
The idea was to add some spice to the sh*t we hear constantly on the radio and music channels (may they Rest in Peace). The music has some different harmony...while hopefully, keeping the POP HOOKS as the # 1 priority. I know that the production is a little shabby...but i'm no producer (The whole thing was recorded with two mics and pro-tools)...so forgive me for that ( same for the singing). Jellyfish's Andy Sturmer calls the tunes cartoonishly weak, and Self/Matt Mahaffey calls them jazzylicious...What do you think? So this is my gift to the universe, I worked damn hard on this stuff so try to at least listen to the measly four tracks they allow here......there are many more, and i change them often...so check often.
Thanks,
-Grant King
