Hello! We are bailar green, a producer/pianist and mixing engineer duo based in Seoul korea and albany ny!

We are currently affiliated with established K-Pop production houses, including 'Clef Company' and 'KSS Music Company.' Our professional background includes composing for Korean commercial campaigns, participating as live session pianists for Korean singer-songwriters, and directing elementary school music projects.
We have a definitive concept and musical direction mapped out for this new band, and we are looking for the final piece of the puzzle: a talented Male Vocalist.

🌟 What We Are Looking For:
Genre/Vibe: Folk / Chill-Pop male vocals.
Skills: Ability to write toplines (melodies) and play acoustic guitar is a huge plus!
Setup: Must have a home recording setup for smooth remote collaboration.
🤝 What We Offer (Partnership):
Credit: This is a true creative partnership, not a hiring contract. All songwriting/composing credits will be split 50:50.
Budget: Please note that there is no upfront payment at this stage. We are looking for a dedicated team member who genuinely loves music and wants to grow and succeed together as a long-term team.
If you are passionate about making great music and building something special from the ground up, we would love to connect with you.

I don’t mean it as a diss but it’s just so crazy how he’s blown up. I remember first discovering him back in like 2017/18 maybe while listening to Ben Howard. He was alright and I didn‘t really pay much attention until his song - View Between Villages. I had that song on repeat the first time hearing it back in 2023. I couldn’t get enough of it. I then met my ex who was so into him. And that’s how I got more into him and Zach Bryan around then.

I’ve seen Ben Howard, Novo Amor, Ocie Eliot, Leif Vollebekk and they only were able to sell out a 2-3,000 venue. Noah Kahan has been selling out 50,000 + arenas. I always assumed folk music to be very niche.

How was he able to break that mainstream barrier? And the crazy thing is I’ve never heard him on radio.

I think he’s absolutely amazing. But it’s just crazy that so many other similar artists have never blown up.
