This Week’s Show:  6-28-09 

 

Well, the year is half over this week, and what a year it has been!   Our guests this week are amazing.   From points east (a bit), we welcome Sunset Route to the program, a great country duo that you will enjoy!   Rod Kent and Curtis Stevenson make up this very talented duo.  Sharing lead vocals over their road seasoned melodies creates a distinct sound that helps translate their stories into a wonderfully pleasurable listening experience. 

Also joining us is Carlos Solorzano, an amazing percussionist and drummer from the Tucson area, he is better known as the Desert Drummer and he will show us a thing or twelve, I am sure!   How much of his kit we will fit in the studio is another question.

We also have Eric Laubach  with us this week, who brings a great sense of humor to a folk based guitar style.    Eric is a very entertaining and talented performer and songwriter whose only failing is the poor spelling of his first name!  (Host Joke) 

Finally, one of our very favorites Chava Cannon, makes an appearance on the program and will share with us what she has been doing and some of her latest compositions!   Chava hosts and open mic at Cup O Karma, one of our sponsors, and is a regular contributor to the Colgate Country Showdown event where she placed second last year.   

Please join us!

 

HOW TO GET ON THE SHOW? 

 

 

A word about our guests!   You don’t have to have a CD out, you can be playing occasional open mics in the valley, you can be just starting out, or far along the trail…..it doesn’t matter.  All that matters is that you have a musical story to tell, a melody to share, or an instrument to play.    And of course, you are here in Arizona!   That’s it!   So, don’t be shy!    Join the more than 150 artists who have been on the program and get on the website (you are already here) and go to the registration page!    That’s all there is to it!  

Shameless plea for readers: Please check out the new AZ Music Café Blog and my latest entry: Tom Rush: What I Know.

 

HELP US GET THE WORD OUT! 
We thank you for listening and hope that you are enjoying the program. Please help us get the word out. This is important for local music. We have flyers for distribution to the coffeehouses, restaurants and other venues, even music stores. Please download and print a few! They’re two for one, so if you’ll print 25, you can cut them in half to make 50 to distribute to your friends in the music scene. Please help us get the word out about the show!   Tell everyone you know!

Finally, we are proud to recommend our family of sponsors, Southwest Studios, O Premium Waters, Erich Sielaff (my real estate business at West USA) and Booster Juice and Cup O’ Karma! Please support the businesses that support local music!
