Butterflies Radio IndieViews Artist Spotlight, featuring Melissa VanFleet - 9/16/13

This week's guest was New York singer/songwriter/musician Melissa VanFleet. Melissa was absolutely one of the most engaging guests I have ever had - I could practically hear her smile throughout the interview and her energy is contagious. We talked about her September residency at The Hard Rock Cafe in Philadelphia where you can catch her every Wednesday throughout the month. We also discussed her nominations for the 2014 Artists in Music Awards and the fact that her hometown of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania is also the home of PEEPS. We also discussed Renman Music & Business and the impact it has had on her life and career. Click on their name to find out more about them.

Butterflies Radio IndieViews Artist Spotlight, featuring Dylan Lock - 9/2/13

This week's guest is the MSI: Hit List Winner for June, 2013. The singer/songwriter from Midland, Canada was a fabulous guest and I really enjoyed his insight into so many things. He also picked up his guitar and demonstrated live, during the interview, how he goes about songwriting.

Dylan is another of the very talented Canadian musicians I have had the privilege to speak with this past year. Dylan and I decided it was because Canadians have much longer winters that allow them more time to write and record.

He won the MSI: Hit List title with his song, Killer and Sin. I love the piano riff in the beginning. For me, it took me straight back to very happy memories. I immediately smiled and thought of The Haunted Mansion at Disney World and my favorite cartoon as a child, Scooby-Doo.
