Hi Friends! thanks for your support! Here's a new video!
I'm reaching out to all those friends who have taken the time to subscribe to my N1M channel - thanks for showing you've enjoyed my music! I'm delighted we share the same musical "space" and sensibilities.
I've attached a new video of a song which I recently completed, featuring outstanding Byron Bay Kellie Knight in duo with myself, with Kellie taking the lead singing role on one of my original alt rock compositions - I hope you enjoy it!
I've received a great response on this platform for my music and have clocked up over 700,000 streams of my songs, and my tracks reached national #1 on the N1M charts in several categories - including jazz, blues, rockabilly, film score and latin jazz.
As a passionate songwriter, it's great to know that people are hearing my songs. It is of course very challenging, in the contemporary world of playlists and streaming, to get a fair return on the long and arduous process from idea, to creation of the finished piece/composition, to recording to promoting a song.
My tracks are available on all the main streaming platforms - so if you particularly like a song of mine and you belong to any of these big gun platforms - please add me to your playlist - or, even better - purchase my tracks. While the creator of the music gets very little financial return through these mainstream platforms like Spotify, Apple, Amazon Deezer etc - it can help with recognition and broadening the fan base.
If you REALLY want to make a difference, I urge you to visit my BandCamp page at drbaz.bandcamp.com where you can purchase and download my tracks direct. BandCamp gives a far more equitable share of the royalties the the original artist.
In conclusion I wish you all a happy, prosperous and fulfilling year, ...and I hope to release a new batch of songs in the next few months for your enjoyment.
Stay in touch - I love hearing your feedback on my songs and music through messages on N1M,
best wishes Barry Ferrier aka Dr. Baz
