 Chris Clark was our call in guest this week. We will be playing tracks from his new CD "CEDAR WISELY"
Jazz runs through the veins of this musician, which really shows when he is playing a saxaphone or behind a piano. Chris grew up in Davis, developing his talent in Davis High. he went on to earn his B.M. in Jazz Studies from the University of Oregon and his M.M. in Jazz and Improvisational Music from the University of Nevada, Reno. Currently he resides in Boston and performs on the east coast. Listen in for an in depth interview along with playing a few tracks from his CD and some music that has influenced him. |
BOSTON.
Todays show was going to feature Chris Clark, a musician from Boston. With all that is happening in Boston today Chris and I both felt today was not the time to focus on his new CD.
Instead LISTENING LYRICS reflects on the tragedy with the help of lyrics and music.

 This weeks Listening Lyrics we talk with Marque Cass of "Tha Dirt Feelin".
To describe the band I will use Marque's own words: "Our music is, in my opinion, a very original and eclectic amalgamation of hip-hop, soul, and rock & roll. It is always upbeat, positive, and danceable. Our lyrical styles range from rapid-fire raps that may remind you of Bone Thugs ‘n Harmony or Three Six Mafia to soulful crooning that evokes Sam Cooke or Bill Withers."
I have heard Marque at the Dr. Andy poetry reading series and frankly Marque blew me away with his presentation and passion. |
