BTW: "Originally, I was just looking to get out of the band environment and simply write and record some songs on my acoustic guitar," Schroder tells P&P. "Over time, though, I began to build a solo career. In the end, I guess what I'm really trying to accomplish with this album is a sense of connection with an audience (through my songs and characters). At a basic level, I've always loved creating music and performing in front of audiences." Click here for a full interview with Schroder.
