Warm, low off-hand vocals accompanied by an understated backup band, lots of slow songs, and sarcastic, depressing lyrics about alienation, failed relationships, melancholy memories, and dreams.
Bio / Background
NOTE: A big Thank You to all who have chosen The Quiet Party; it means a lot to know the songs are out there in the world. I am slowly working on a two new CD's: one of mostly upbeat material, and one of electronic/ambient groove material under the name Frequiem. I hope you enjoy the cd, drop a line sometime, and please check back for future discs. -- Alec James.
BIO:
The Quiet Party is the debut CD from Alec James, on Wanderlust Records.
Alec James presents himself as pop-folk singer/songwriter/guitarist with a warm, low voice, and melancholy lyrics spiked with sarcasm. The music maintains a relaxed feel throughout, with all ten songs in the slow-to-midtempo range. "I wanted to make a late-night type of record that never destroyed the mood with some upbeat number," James explains, "you know, a long drive record, or a makeout record. A record you can enjoy and ignore at the same time.
