DigiVegas 123 - Liquor Boxx

My guest this week is Chicago band Liquor Boxx. These guys play just straight up rock 'n roll, no chaser. What really impressed me about them is the decision they made to just "go for it". They hopped in their van one summer with only a single non-paying gig booked, and decided to stay on the road for several months. They booked as they went. That takes some serious stones if you ask me. Check them out on episode 123 of DigiVegas.

DigiVegas 122 - Femi

My guest this week has been performing in the Oakland, CA underground scene for years. Her music has been defined as neo-funk & soul but its roots go much deeper with an infusion of afro-latin/carribean rhythms, jazz, hip-hop, salsa and rock, blending perfectly to create a unique sound all her own. Her debut solo CD Sweet Water Soul is impressing music lovers and critics alike. (That doesn't necessarily mean that critics are not music lovers or that music lovers aren't critics...) FEMI joins me on episode 122 of DigiVegas to share her music, her history, her thoughts on music education, as well as her desire to have the show's fans name my drum kit! I've had the thing for about 3 years now, and it never dawned on me to name it, um...him... her.

DigiVegas 121 - The Respectables

Melodic Power Pop? Sure, but with a Detroit difference. With raspy vocals, nitro-fueled guitar solos, straight ahead four-on-the-floor drums, the assembly line is now cranking out brand new Motor City rock in it's finest traditions. Songs that get to the point in a hurry and stay with you long after the three minutes are over. R-E-S-P-E-C-T for The Respectables? Absolutely!

DigiVegas 120 -- Christmas Is Jesus

This is a VERY rough mix of Christmas Is Jesus, performed by Living Water Fellowship Church of Henderson, NV.



We recorded on 4 different 2-track recorders. The tracks did not sync up, and all recorded at slightly varying speeds throughout the program. It was a pain in the neck to line everything up and keep it all synchronized. So, please be forgiving of the mix, I know it sucks. I will continue to work on this in the coming weeks and hopefully will have something much better for you sometime in January, maybe even February.



Sorry. Guess I'll never shoot my mouth off again and promise to deliver something like this so quickly.

Next year will be better. Once I get my new computer, I will be able to record 16, maybe 20 tracks at a time with that, automatically synced, and another 8 with a friend's stand alone recorder. Maybe I can sync that up too, but even if I don't the 8 will be synced up with each other, and it'll be much easier to line it up with what I already have. It'll better and easier, trust me.



Merry Christmas everybody!

Paulie Podcaster's guest this week is former EMI recording artist Patti Rothberg. Her song, Inside, broke into the Billboard top 40 charts in 1996. She's toured the world opening for acts such as The Wallflowers, Chris Isaac, Midnight Oil, Garbage, Paul Westerberg and many others.

Patti has since gone Indie, and has recently released her third album, Double Standards. Join paulie as he catches up with Patti and plays tracks off her new CD, as well as her back catalog.

DigiVegas 116 - Shadows Lie

Rising from the New York City underground is Shadows Lie.
Their music is a unique mix of Days of the New-style acoustic guitars, Portishead-like electronics and heavy-guitars reminiscent of Staind and Linkin Park built around a powerful singer, Kira Leigh. Combined with CT's production skills, Marco Britti on drums and Frank Grullon on guitars, they form the foundation of a fresh sound that uniquely melds sonic strength with emotional truth and vulnerability.

Kira Leigh joins us on episode 116 of DigiVegas to share tracks off of their new CD "Echoes".

Daydream On Autopilot - DigiVegas 115

Hailing from NYC and PA, Daydream On Autopilot is my guest this week. Lead singer Emii (center) joins me to share tracks off their new CD Better Off Alone, and to explain how this band walks the walk, as well as talks the talk. (or should that be 'sings the song'?) They have made a conscious decision to give back to their community, and to society in general, right out of the gate, from the very beginning. They are deeply involved in S.A.D.D. and Character Counts, reaching kids all over the country with their positive, drug-free message. Oh yeah, and they rock really hard too. That doesn't hurt their chances at all either.
