California’s William Ryan Fritch has a driving passion for music. Since the age of 12, he taught himself to play over 40 instruments, finding enough time therein to develop his talent as a composer. Between 2007 and 2011, he eponymously issued Music For Honey and Bile as part of Asthmatic Kitty’s groundbreaking Library Catalog Music Series, contributed to several Sole and/or The Skyrider Band and Tokyo Bloodworm releases, and released two full-length albums under the name Vieo Abiungo.
Maintaining his momentum, he’s kickstarting 2012 with a, um, Kickstarter pledge drive, set up in the hopes of funding his latest Vieo Abiungo endeavor, a CD/DVD release titled Thunder May Have Ruined the Moment. If the video for “With Its Slow Decay” is any indication, this will be a mesmerizing mix of softly psychedelic visuals and Fritch’s tasteful brand of experimental orchestral music. If it does indeed get funded, the project will see release by Lost Tribe Sound sometime in March.
