No.17: Wilderness Album Cover
So here it is. The finished album cover for my debut album Wilderness. The cover is by Australian artist Melanie Caple https://www.melaniecaple.com/ and is the first of three albums.
The record focuses on the first part of a journey for identity; the choice to leave everything known and start anew. The conceptual wilderness is the battle with ourselves and the grand delusion of the world we have created. The first record in the series explores the juxtaposition between this world we have created and the world we inhabit.
The album is out January 11th 2019 and features 10 songs. Additionally, the first short story, Wilderness is within the album notes. For now, I will leave you with the finished cover.
You can stream a couple of album tracks by following the links below.

Hello!
Many thanks for getting in contact. I would love to be on the show. Always up for a music chat and would love to discuss the record! I'm glad you liked the song, I hope the studio version does it justice! I will be sharing the whole album on January 11th and would love to do a live session on your show in the new year if that is of interest?
I love being part of a music community so I will for sure get myself over the Discord and join RED. Look forward to seeing you there!

Great! Then please click the discord link above and join RED so we can chat some more.
First of three is an awesome deal. Time and effort pays off.
Cover art is awesome!
I believe it does. This record really was an important experience to me. Took 4 years to write and it explores a lot of personal stuff. The next is happening as we speak. :) I hope you enjoy the album - please help yourself on January 11th - share it with friends and don't hesitate to tell me what you think!
As for the cover art - Melanie is a total art champion.
Thank you for taking the time to share your music and poetry with the community here on Steem. We see you didn't get much engagement since your introductory post, but we appreciate you nonetheless and hope you'll stay with us.
Thank-you very much! I'm really enjoying the platform and will be sharing the whole journey through 2019 on here. I appreciate your comment and even the smallest engagement means a lot - so thanks for your support. As an independent artist it's cool to know people are listening! I'm in for the duration! :)
@guiltyparties is a very good guy and told me about you. You will get a small boost (hope also of confidence) in the next 2 hours ;)
Thank-you! That certainly helped! :) Really much appreciated!
