I love local music. Hearing artists pour their hearts and souls out is an experience like no other.
I love performing my music live. It's great to be able to share my art with friends and strangers. The feelings of community and shared experience are wonderful.
One aspect of performing live I have come to look forward to at every show, is the performances of the other acts. The energy and music is awesome. I came home from a show recently and immediately picked up my guitar and wrote a new song.
I was thinking about this today after reflecting on the show we played last night. So I decided to make a playlist that is comprised of all local artists and put it on my MySpace page. I have performed with many of these artists and they are amazing live.
Please take a minute to listen to some of these tracks. Even if you just listen to the beginning of each one I'm sure you will find something you will enjoy. Just click on the word "playlist" at the bottom of the music player on my page.
If you haven't checked out a live local performance lately, go check your community rag and find out what's going on this weekend.
If you don't want to leave the house this Friday then be sure to watch
Essential Machine's online internet show. It starts at 9:00pm and it's
free!

I will be blogging again soon!
Peace and love,
