AlithiA began writing album number 2 in March 2015. For 18 months we have been in the rehearsal room 2-3 nights a week as well as recording demos across 3 studios over the past 10 months. We have been committed without any time off to create this record. In the meantime all members of the band working day jobs alongside this process.
AlithiA will record the new album in Greece, which is the country of origin of the band's lead singer's family, John Rousvanis. AlithiA recorded the first album 'To the Edge of Time' in Budapest, Hungary in 2012 and the experience of being in a foreign country and opportunity to connect with it's music scene and culture was an inspiring process for the band. We are going to continue this tradition so that we can be in an environment where we can be entirely focussed on the recording process without the distraction of our every day lives and jobs. We will be documenting the recording process and we hope to meet local musicians who may guest on this record as we had on our last record 'To the Edge of Time'.
This band is not a hobby for us, it's not something we do 'just for fun'. This band represents our aspirations, our dreams and hopes, our desire to create something that excites us and inspires others, a brotherhood amongst ourselves, and a sense to be comfortable to create something outside of the confines of the ordinary or the popular. We're not aiming for radio play... we are striving to make a record that gives you the sensation that you've never heard anything like this before. We all love being in this band... we love creating this music and playing it live and the 5 of us can clearly say that there is nothing else we'd rather be doing than supporting each other to push our own boundaries.
How The Funds Will Be Used
The target we are aiming to raise is only a fraction of the cost of the whole project. The funds raised from this record will go directly to the studio hire and paying our producer, london based, Daniel Sandor who also recorded and produced our last record 'To the Edge of Time'. Daniel Sandor is in fact doing this job at a very generous 'mates rates' fee as he personally wants to be part of the project and told us he didn't want the cost to be a barrier. We already have booked and paid for our international flights from money from our day jobs, we will be paying for our own accomodation and living expenses out of pocket. Any additional funds raised from this record will go towards paying for mixing the album, mastering, promotion and marketing, printing CDs, music videos... and the list goes on.
The Challenges
The members of AlithiA have been facing many challenges to create this record, personal, work commitments, financial struggle and emotional. It has been a process of major commitment required from all members and over this period when very little time for personal rest. The payment the band receives from live shows is minimal after expenses are paid. The band has also had a commitment to live touring both around Australia and Internationally which is a constant personal financial burden for the members of AlithiA.
