Still, Cynical, Folk


“You’ve made an amazing record. Now we need to promote it. And one thing to decide is what type of music it is. You know: classical, rock, pop, etc.”

“What’cha thinkin’?”

“Well… it’s a tough one. You’ve got still and peaceful bits…”

“Yup. Wind through the trees and all that.”

“… and that banjo bit. Totally folk…”

“Yeah. Could be.”

“… but we also need to factor in your look. The tattoos. The three foot high mohawk died red. This is not a folksy look.”

“Yeah.”

“A cynical person might dump your work into “rock”. I’m thinking we go with “world music”.
