Understanding Music Bloggers & Outreach
0savesSave Lately this blog has gained some popularity in the DC area and I’ve started receiving emails from fellow musicians in the area asking me to review an album or invite me to a show of theirs. Usually the email goes like this, “Hi, I/We am/are a band in DC. We just put our album [...]

0savesSave There was an event last night that was very different from any music event the DC area has seen before. Out at the Rock N’ Roll Hotel four DC area artists (Alexis George, Flo Anito, Practically Einstein and Modern Thieves with Marcus Johnson) premiered music videos.

0savesSave I’m back in after spending an evening out in Nashville. For a Monday night, it was not dead–at least compared to DC–music wise. People were out at bars, enjoying tunes, and the bands were enjoying playing. For my first night here, it was a mixed bag. After a nap, I got ready and headed [...]
