there are a few gems that i'd like to discuss, that is, if you haven't heard them already (trying not to make this an ad, and if it is, i'll edit it and take the links out)

from the UK (god, i never stopped loving the music scene there)

from the US:
si*sé: http://www.myspace.com/sise i know the lot of you have heard this band before, just thought i'd bring them up again
julian's ride: http://www.myspace.com/julianride14 again, i know a lot of orgers are hip to the ride, just another mention

the grates are fun live

Practically all my friends on myspace are bands. Here are some that I think need to be heard the most:

Icaro Azul: http://www.myspace.com/icaroazul
Dark Latin alternative rock from Puerto Rico. It's really all about Ana Christina's vocals though.

The Bellrays: http://www.myspace.com/thebellrays
What if Aretha Franklin was the vocalist for the MC5? This band is killer rock-n-soul.

Sing-Sing: http://www.myspace.com/singsinguk
British retro pop-rock--like a crunchier Saint Etienne.

Deadsy: http://www.myspace.com/deadsy
New wave-doom-metal from Elijah Blue Allman's band (son of Cher/Greg Allman).

sextonseven said:

Meloh9 said:

not too into the rap
but 3stone is tight from what i'm hearing right now (just clicked the link)
thanks!

SammiJ said:

thanks sammi!

JPW said:

you're quite welcome!
i like the chord changes very unique sound

SammiJ said:

I think they both have alot of time on their hands to check in on myspace it's not like they are Mariah...I mean Mia X. hasn't had an album out since 98 and Rah-digga since 00.I guess if you look at alot of those rappers from a commercial visibility stand point at the moment most people would think half of those chicks on my list were obscure MC Lyte???Nikki D.???Yo-Yo???but they are still doing it.

SammiJ said:

thanks again... yeah i try and use jazz chords in a rock setting...

it's so hard to get recognition for what you do though.

a lot of my songs were written when i was younger... though i've recorded a lot recently too... but damn i've been working at the singer/songwriter thing for YEARS and i've been told i'm good and have what it takes a lot.. still, no contract yet!

theAudience said:

Thanks, man and once again .... for the guitar work on Mary

and thank you too SammiJ , paisleypark4 () , and Stax
