Available for free download
I would describe the Strings EP as “Modern acoustic folk rock, with orchestra strings”. It’s a 5-song EP with four new songs that weren’t released on “13 Miles”. I recorded this myself and played all the instruments. I also wrote all the lyrics and music.
Release date: July 2009
Also available for purchase:
iTunes and Amazon: $4.95 (full EP) // $0.99 (individual tracks)
Hi Brian. I just discovered your music from your cover of Worlds Apart by Jars of Clay on Youtube. I like your music and would like to support your talents, so rather than just download your songs for free here, I thought I would buy them off iTunes, but I wanted to check to make sure you actually get a portion of that. Let me know…
Austin, you my friend are awesome – thank you so much! I do get some income from sales through iTunes, but not all my music is available there. It costs indie artists about $50 per album to put music up on iTunes. We get about 60% of sales – so about 60 cents for every $0.99 song download.
If you’d prefer, I do have a tip jar kind of thing set up here, but it’s not showing up on every page. You can leave a tip through paypal by clicking here. If that link doesn’t work, just let me know.
Also, I’ve got my latest album up on NoiseTrade, which allows tips as well. http://www.noisetrade.com/brianwahl
Either way – feel free to download as much of my music as you’d like for free, and thanks so much for the kind words and support!
Brain,
I just got the Strings EP. I think it is great that you play all of it yourself. I have tried that, and my beat deficiency always throws me off
I did have a question about what recording setup you use. Do you remember what mic/filters you were using on the Worlds Apart cover? The sound is really good on that cover. Also what software do you use?
Thanks, and keep up the good work!
