tOdd cOrcOran: "the eclectic guitarist" (where do i go now)

After graduate school I found myself caught in between three schools: One was my desire to write
and create popular music. A music that originally drew me to the guitar. A music that most people
can relate to; The second was my interest in the classic guitar. For its interesting harmonies, its
developing themes, use of dynamics and seemingly endless, musical obstacles to overcome,
classical music is truly a limitless art form; The third was my newest desire, to be able to improvise
like the prominent jazz players of the 20th century and beyond. To be able to possess the freedom
technically and intellectually to improvise “in the moment.” So, with that being said, the motivation
for doing this particular recording was my interest in experimenting with these influences
simultaneously.

For this recording, using my miscellaneous influences as a foundation, I self-imposed the following
restrictions: fingerstyle arrangements with various techniques, rhythms and harmonies, composed
in a popular style, with vocals. All determined from a desire to see what kind of results I could get
from just one guitar and a voice. The overall concept being that: any musical idea, so long as it is
repeated enough, will be perceived as popular music.

WHERE DO I GO NOW is the first recording in what will, hopefully, be many recordings developing all
of my influences into a popular style format.
