Sindu

During much of the time Leah and I lived on Kingsley, I was kind of floundering around for a coherent band or music project. This would have been between The Cactus Rats and Radio Dramamine I suppose. Anyway one thing I tried was putting something together with Shawn and Jason Nelson. I had Tyler Vincent’s drums and he didn’t seem interested in playing them so I thought it might be fun to have a go at being a drummer again. The three of us got together a few times at the Dental Studios basement (the Nelsons’ practice space for many years, in the basement of where they work) and started jamming and seeing if we could turn these drowsy post-rock jams into loose compositions with a lot of room for on-the-spot reinterpretation. We came up with the name Sindu, had a few songs, I made these rough recordings on a portable recorder, but we never quite made it to the point of playing shows. Don’t really know why. It was fun, though.
