Iowa Scores

The Daily Palette is pleased to present "Iowa Scores," a new feature spotlighting Iowa's musical artists. From classical string-quartets to electronic noise bands, Iowa's musical community is creatively rich and diverse.

A VAGUE SOUND
I Got What I Wanted (From You)

A Vague Sound is the solo project of University of Iowa student and Iowa native Corey Gingerich.  After failing to recognize his musical aspirations with other bands, Corey began making his own music using tapeloops, white noise, a 1984 casiotone keyboard, and a PowerMac. What has come since have been four critically acclaimed and scorned albums, 3 national tours, and a song featured on a commercial for German television.
A Vague Sound is now preparing to release two more albums this spring and summer, and will be touring from coast to coast during May - July. More track and updates on live shows can be found at www.myspace.com/avaguesound.

Of his music, Gingerich says, "Music has the ability to evoke every emotion across the human palette. Like colors, combinations of emotions can create new feelings, thoughts, ideas, and when music is added into the mix, what you have a project and concept that is distinctly yourself."
