Be Alright

This song is not in a battle


A slow blues jam... with a little kick in the middle. This is a learning song for sure; first time I've recorded my own vocals in a while. Open to any suggestions, will make them, and will upload a new version.

Thats why I like Bandamp. I hope it doesn't go anywhere. I started uploading music when I was 17... I'm 25 now, and I may not be great, but I'm way better than I would have been sans Bandamp... its hard not to get nostalgic.

Anyway, comments welcome.

Also, in a couple hours, I'll have my first EP up on Bandcamp, I'll upload some songs from it!

Not bad - Vox sound  good.
The main thing I'd work on in the mix is the reverb (try different reverbs too - I think a live sounding one would sound nice), sounds too much making it muddy and  too distant.
Plus the Eq/panning on the Organ and guitars to create more separation.
The Bass tone is sweet.
Guitar licks a bit untidy, try less notes with more pull ups, sustaining the pull ups adding vibrato when you hit the note at the top of the bend - it takes a bit of practice to get the timing right - Less is more in the right places.

Has a good groove.  I'm wondering if a nice slap back delay on the drums would benefit this song.  The upbeat part fits in perfectly, and doesn't drag on too long.  Nice jorb.

Really pleasant blues tune, and a very enjoyable "kick" in the middle. I like it as it is, though if you want to mix it to perfection, there are some very minor timing issues here and there, causing some parts of the performance sound more "on edge" than "laidback" which one would expect from e blue tune. Also, I hear those bass notes being a little off as well, but I can't call that an issue. Maybe the overall mix could be somewhat "dramatized", if you're going to use effects, don't hold back, OR stay clean and use effects only very subtly (in particular, the reverb). On the other hand, it really does stand as it is, but you wanted suggestions, so here you have them

Really nice - smooth, sultry, then raucous, emotive. You have a great voice - pure, true, smooth. Fits the song really well. Nice work!
