The future of music is in desperate need of a spark. There has always been a divide between the genres, and any time there has been an attempt to crossover, it is seen as "cheesy" or "lame." Enter the "Hood Orchestra: Live Tour." I was set to release an all instrumental hiphop album, when I visited the High School for the Performing and Visual Arts and had an impromptu jam session. I realized that my dream of very conducting an orchestra to "music I identified with" was right in front of me; within an arms reach. This album and tour is not for myself. It is for the sake of music. It is to break down the barriers between genres, races, and art itself. The vision is set in stone. The details have been flushed out. A tour involving masterclasses at schools, live chamber performances, and orchestral performances is in the works, with tour dates starting as soon as New Years. Up until now, most of my work has been done solo. It is time that I step back to focus on the creative, build a team, and make this dream become a reality. Your contribution, no matter the size, will go directly towards funding composition software, studio sessions, rehearsal space, transportation, and venue rentals to make the tour happen. As an independent artist, I could easily sign a deal and risk my art being stolen in order for a quick paycheck. However, I have built this vision organically and I am asking for the support of the people I plan to inspire. Thank you for your support, and I hope to see you soon in a city near you!
