Joy!
Martin from Attrition asked me to submit a song for his cover album project.
He's having different musicians record interpretations of his band's songs and will be selecting the ones he likes for an upcoming CD.
This is unusual in that an artist or band doesn't normally cast for cover versions of their own material - it is not only unorthodox, but egoless - and way cool, if you ask me!
When I was with this one band a decade ago, we opened for them while on tour, and more recently I gave Martin a copy of my Protea Holiday CD. He tried to get in touch with me after hearing it but my email didn't work. Fortunately, I found his profile on Myspace and posted a comment letting him know he was indirectly thanked in my book. He came to my page to reply, saw the blog about my Protea album, put together that Protea=me and "propositioned" me.
Any Attrition fans out there? I originally thought I'd do Dreamsleep or Into the waves but it looks like he already has a few Dreamsleeps and believes my voice is well suited to Into the waves. He also needs a Two Gods.
