FAQ's

What exaclty is The Project Pittsburgh?

• Album/Live Show/Documentary

• The idea is to gather around 50 musicians for different bands/styles of music to come up with original material to record an album.

• Each group of 4 to 5 people come up with 10 minutes of material.

• Every group gets 1 month to come up with the ten minutes of music for the album (roughly three songs or two longer songs).
  

How are the bands assembled?

• We're having everyone meet on the 16th of September to meet and talk with eachother.

• After about an hour, everyone will fill out a form choosing who they want to work with.

What is the form for?

• The form will be broken down into categories by instrument/persons name/and a ranking.

• For instance, you talked to John Doe the bass player and think you would work well together. On the form you would write: BASS/JOHN DOE/#1.

• At the end of the night, we collect the forms and try to match everyone with their number one picks.

• Then after everyone is matched up, it's up to your group from there to come up with the music.

Will this be recorded in a studio?

• Yes. The entire project consists of volunteers. Many of which have voluteered their time and studio for the project.

Where will the live show take place?

• This will be determined after the album is recorded.

Will there be a DVD?

• Yes. This is also a being filmed as a documentary, and after the recording will be a live show. We have interview footage of around 15 participating musicians currently.
