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.

Butterflies Radio @IndieViews Artist Spotlight, featuring The Shy Lips - 4/8/2013

This week's guest is the Swedish band, The Shy Lips.

The Shy Lips were the MSI:Labs Hit List Artist of the month for March. The band of five guys from Gothenburg, Sweden formed in 2012 and released their first album just three months after creating the band.

According to their SoundCloud profile; "The band was the brainchild of singer Adam and bassist Victor, born on the travels in Europe and South America where the two met and bonded - and the band became a reality when they moved to the vibrant music city of Gothenburg. After hooking up with drummer Anton and guitarist Alex and later joined by Adam's brother Jonas on guitar, the band now had members originating from Morocco, Poland and Sweden."

Butterflies Radio @IndieViews Artist Spotlight, featuring Michelle Lockey - 1/21/13

This week’s guest is Michelle Lockey, a songwriter from Germantown, Maryland who currently writes songs for tv and film. Michelle is the January MSI: Labs Hit List Artist of the Month and was a guest on my show in the fall of 2012.

Michelle is a wicked Ukulele player. This show with Michelle inspired Rich Wildman, from MSI: Labs to throw out a challenge for all Ukulele players to submit their original "Ukulele" shred song. That came about because I said all Ukulele songs seemed to be happy and upbeat. I then said it would be cool to hear someone do a Metallica type song on the Uk.
