Leadville Cherokee Kickstarter Project

By Tyler Grimes

This project was a huge learning experience for me, especially about sound. I recorded with a small camera mic so the audio was static-filled, and during the crescendos of songs the audio fuzzed out entirely. Someone explained to me that there are so many sounds coming from the stage that one small mic can’t capture all of the different frequencies (the audio used in this video is from a live performance in Breck recorded by a ridiculous amount of mics). To me, that represents Leadville Cherokee – a diverse group of musicians, pulling from a wide scale of backgrounds, blasting a huge range of frequencies and genres, and- for the most part- channeling it all into one unified vibration.
