About Me

MUSIC is the voice of the soul. SINKING IN is the interpreter. Driven by a passion for writing and performing music, Sinking In is a collaboration of talented musicians and singers whose musical influences span multiple genres and decades. Combine that passion with a ridiculous amount of personal struggles, triumphs and tragedies, and you have an instrument to liberate the voice of the soul.Energetic, fun, entertaining, true to the record live performances showcase the love and respect each member has for music. Unafraid to sing up to four-part harmony, even accapella at times, the live vocals are impressive enough to stand on their own and are compared to artists such as Queen occasionally. The musicianship is unequaled and well thought out to complement/contrast the vocals and the changing moods songs.Collectively/individually Sinking In continually writes and records for other musicians as well. Artists such as: -Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler -Motley Crue’s John Corabi -Sebastian Bach of Skid Row -Stephen Percy of Ratt -Jani Lane of Warrant -Leif Garret… -Doug Pinnick of Kings X - and dozens of others. The song “Soldier” from Sinking Ins’ freshman release “Vengeance is Mine” has been licensed and re-sung by Mark Slaughter (Slaughter/Vinnie Vincent Invasion) and Kelly Keagy (Night Ranger) for a compilation CD. “The music is modern yet accessible.” KK.Sinking In understands the relevance of image/labeling/branding and does not shy away from comprehensive marketing strategies. Such things are embraced as part of the creative outlet that popular music brings.The sophomore effort is underway. Tentatively titled “Life is But a Dream”. Treading the line between the marketable songwriting of Nickelback and the musical integrity of Tool, this record will bring some listeners to tears. Nothing is being held back as the lyrics/music take shape. The past year has been incredibly tragic for some of the band members of Sinking In and the healing process of songwriting is producing a record with more feeling than can commonly be felt. Showing promise of memorable, first listen hooks, with an enigmatic depth to make you listen again and again. Strong melodic sensibilities over dramatic groove-laden rhythms provide the foundation for the challengingly honest lyrics that go beyond the obvious.Sinking In seeks to identify with the listener by capturing life-changing moments in time, daily feelings, or deeply shallow thoughts/emotions, and fusing them with mood altering music. In short, creating a bond with the listener that can be felt. This is the power of the song to speak from soul to soul.
