Raising funds to purchase material to launch myself into a solo musical project, after several years of playing in bands, I am preparing to try solo, however, there is a lack of material. Due to several health problems, I do not currently have prices available. Since 1985 I have been playing in bands.

In 1991 I was lucky enough to join one of the best bands in my area. After 20 years, they chose to send me away. The funny thing is that I found out about my departure through Facebook where there was a post looking for a vocalist. I started to feel sick. There was a company that closed its doors in 2013. I lost everything, my assets were sold on the market, my savings were all buried in the company.

I started to be depressed and still today, 10 years later, I take ca. 7 tablets per day. I've tried to elevate myself over these years. I formed a band with very little visibility that ended due to the pandemic. Today I'm trying a solo project with a friend to accompany me from time to time. I made a simple presentation and people want me to appear. However, I am missing some material for which I do not have the resources, because in February of this year, 10 years after my company closed, the finance department chose to garnish my salary.

I also have a beautiful Christmas song that I would like to record.

 

 

 

About the author

Rui Rodrigues 55 years old I've been a musician in bands all my life. With personal financial and health problems, only music and the presence of an audience can give me a little peace of mind. I was in a band for 20 years and found out about my departure through Facebook where I saw a post from the band looking for a new singer. I had a company at the time, and everything fell apart. My assets went to waste, I was left with nothing, and today, 10 years later, my salary has been garnished. I became deeply depressed and I also have diabetes. My salary is barely enough for medicine, rent, food, etc. But people want to see me still singing because they know me. But for this I need some material for which I don't have the financial resources.
