Alright – so today we’ve got the honor of introducing you to Business Cashmere. We think you’ll enjoy our conversation, we’ve shared it below.
Business, appreciate you joining us today. Can you talk to us about a project that’s meant a lot to you?
Every song that we’ve produced is incredibly special to us. The really exciting thing is that there are many more to come, with 3 more singles being scheduled for the summer of 2023.
Each song expresses heartfelt experiences in our lives. As they come to life, they each also become an expression the camaraderie and friendship that we share as a band.
Our next round of single releases are probably the most important and meaningful to us. They represent a culmination of years of work and growth as artists and individuals.
Our next upcoming single, ‘Conversations’ has a positive and inspiring message that we feel is important to share.
‘Conversations’ addresses how the lowest of lows can sometimes bring on the highest of highs with the interconnections of experiences being impossible to predict. As the song says “I wouldn’t take back any conversation” despite the “red flags and complications.” It leads to a place of vibing on your own, and losing yourself on the dancefloor.
This is one of the most meaningful songs thus far, but there’s even more to show soon!!
Business, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
Business Cashmere is a Denver based band / performing artist that bridges a void in modern music between what would be considered mainstream in today’s day and age (think muse, kings of leon, and the strokes) and the indie feelings of current and classic artists such as Beach House, Depeche Mode, and The Cure.
We are proud to represent Denver as a group of (mostly) local born people each coming from a different background and demographic.
We believe diversity and representation in the music scene is incredibly important, so we want to do more than just take up space by providing opportunities for other local artists and fostering a sense of community with Denver musicians.
It’s a core value of ours to draw on our experiences with all aspects of life, even topics that some might find difficult to approach. Our message is simple at it’s center. No matter what you’re going through, music with always be there for you. Our music will always be there for you.
What’s the most rewarding aspect of being a creative in your experience?
The most rewarding aspect is the ability to express ourselves authentically and to connect with others through our art. It’s about taking the thoughts, emotions, and experiences swirling inside and turning them into something tangible, something that resonates with people on a deep level.
Creating art allows us to explore and understand ourselves better. It’s a form of self-discovery and self-expression that can be incredibly cathartic. Whether it’s writing lyrics, composing music, or painting a canvas, the act of creation brings a sense of fulfillment and meaning to our lives.
Moreover, the joy comes from the connections forged with those who appreciate and connect with my art. When someone listens to my music, views my artwork, or experiences my creativity in any form, and they feel something, that’s when we feel the true power of art. It becomes a bridge between souls, transcending language, culture, and differences. It’s a way to touch people’s hearts, to evoke emotions, to spark conversations, and to make a positive impact in their lives.
The ability to inspire, to provoke thought, or to simply provide solace to someone going through a difficult time is an incredible privilege. Knowing that our art has touched someone’s life, that it has resonated with them or helped them in some way, is immensely rewarding and reinforces my purpose as an artist.
Ultimately, being an artist or creative allows us to share a piece of ourselves with the world, to contribute something unique and meaningful, and to leave a lasting impact. It’s a journey of self-expression, connection, and leaving a creative footprint in the hearts of others, and that’s what makes it truly rewarding.
Is there mission driving your creative journey?
Our creative journey is driven by a multitude of factors, but if we had to pinpoint a particular goal or mission, it would be to create music that spoke to the disaffected and gave a voice to those who felt marginalized or misunderstood.
We want to express the raw emotions, frustrations, and contradictions that exist within us all. Through our music, we aim to capture the essence of pain, anger, and vulnerability, but also offer glimpses of hope, beauty, and connection amidst the chaos.
Our mission is to break down the barriers between artist and audience, to bridge the gap and create a sense of unity. We want people to feel understood, to find solace in our lyrics, and to realize that they aren’t alone in their struggles.
We also want to challenge the status quo, to question the conventions and expectations of the music industry and society at large. I didn’t want to conform to any particular mold or be boxed in by commercial success. Instead, we seek to inspire individuality, self-expression, and the pursuit of authenticity.
Our creative journey is about using our voice and our art to spark conversations, to provoke thought, and to ignite change.
