For those of you new to this channel, welcome. I am a 52-year-old American expat living in Italy and trying to survive financially and musically-not easy tasks by any means when you barely know the language, and the bureaucracy is intentionally set up for you to fail and go home.
I am a songwriter and band-whore who plays in two bands in the north of Italy in addition to my attempts to launch a solo project. I have a fairly large recording repertoire that I only began in late 2020.
I am self-produced, because I have no money, and am almost out of savings thanks to the lockdowns closing my business in the UK with no available government aid (not that I would take it, anyway). This means that my finished products are generally raw and not glitzy, something which I actually prefer, making me the only one in the world who does, apparently.
Since almost nobody listens to lyrics anymore and the algorithms are not interested in promoting unknowns who look like me and are my age, I get very few views, which is OK, because those that do view my stuff generally have positive things to say about it.
