Listening Lyrics Jan 10th, 2014 with RICHIE LAWRENCE

Explore the sounds of Richie Lawrence on his new CD "WATER" This interview is a one on one with one great songwriter, musician, vocalist and a great guy sharing his new CD "WATER" with us.  The songs Richie Lawrence has written for Water are deceptively simple, composed of rippling melodies full of shadow and light, lyrics brimming with poetry and plainspoken truth and an invitation to join in a dance of love, laughter and compassion. Their complexity delights with the first listen, slowly unfolding to reveal an unexpected intensity of color and flavor as they linger on the emotional palette.

 

Listening Lyrics Dec 27th, 2013 with Moonlit Wheat

A very talented, up-and-coming singer/songwriter was in the studio to introduce his new CD. Listening Lyrics was thrilled to spend an hour with Colin Wagner, his guitar, and his voice.
 
Moonlit Wheat was born in a cinderblock cell of a dorm room when Colin found himself fascinated enough with the warm glow of early Mountain Goats records streaming through his computer that he devoted himself to pursuing the captivating witchcraft of songwriting.

Listening Lyrics Nov 15th, 2013 with MICK FLANNERY

Listen now to a whole hour with Mick Flannery. Mick talks about himself and his music. Lauren Cole Norton joined in for this interview.

Mick Flannery was brought up on a farm outside Blarney, Co. Cork, Ireland. His first real connection to music was watching an unplugged Nirvana coveringBowie’s “The Man Who Sold the World”. After a stint in a music college in Cork, he travelled to the U.S. where he “wandered around for a time.” While there, he entered the U.S. Songwriting Competition in Nashville, Tennessee and, to his surprise, won two top awards for his compositions.

Listening Lyrics Nov 8th, 2013 with JUSTIN COX

Listen now - an hour with a very talented and articulate artist.

Justin Cox (from Winters, CA) started playing guitar as a teenager, and went on to front a couple of punk bands (Mr. Nobody and Stenna & the Poison Apples) during high school and college.

A writer by trade, he has a deep appreciation for sentence structure and storytelling. His approach to songwriting has been shaped by artists like Jackson Browne and Paul Simon, but his most formative musical years were spent listening to bands like Goldfinger, Against Me! and Fugazi. You can hear this blend in his songs.

Listening Lyrics Oct 25th, 2013 The DUTCH music scene

After spending 3 weeks in Holland this show shares some of the music scene from Amsterdam. You will hear this weeks number one song. Is the Bieber on the charts? Can people actually slow dance in an up tempo song? Hear two songs from Hollands best known groups known outside of Holland. You will also learn what music genre Holland is on the forefront in. Did I forget jazz - NO you will hear some Dutch Jazz. Some real great Dutch Jazz

What can I say; I LOVED THIS SHOW!

Additionally, I'll let you in on a secret, this was the first time that I listened to, not one, but two complete Rap songs -- and enjoyed them. :)

Loved the show and thoroughly enjoyed Cory. Tell him what Michael J Fox once said; "I am careful not to confuse excellence with perfection. Excellence, I can reach for; perfection is God's business."  He was excellent.

the October 3rd show was way too short. What a mellow and superbly classy hour that just blew by. Thanks!
