About The Shimmering Carnelians

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. My dad used to DJ and had a big collection of records. The first albums I remember hearing were Four by Blues Traveler and Axel F from the Beverly Hills Cop soundtrack. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? The Smashing Pumpkins, Siamese Dream (Remastered) Type O Negative, October Rust my bloody valentine, Loveless I was really influenced by the songwriting and sound of these three albums. Siamese Dream is my blueprint for tone and guitar technique. October Rust showed me how to make metal accessible to pop audiences. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “The Doorway” The elements of this song came together well in an unexpected way. The verse has a spacey, dreamy quality that gives way to the hard rock of the chorus. I was also grateful to be able to discuss my creative process in a song. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? The first time I saw a single on iTunes. I could not believe it was even possible since I independently release music. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I want to continue to refine my sound, and hopefully reach the people who will benefit most from hearing the music.
