Promoting Good Music

All of you know by now that I'm a HUGE music fan..I truly believe in promoting new AND old music. I've said before that I am very frustrated by the impatience of our society and the music industry is a perfect microcosm for that statement.

We've become a country of 'singles' rather than a country of 'albums'..I believe the difference between an artist and an entertainer lies in that last sentence. Britney Spears releases great singles..She strives simply to entertain. Radiohead releases great singles AND great albums. They strive for the full package which includes everything that a Britney is as an entertainer and exceeds it into being a true artist, in my opinion. OK Computer is one of the greatest albums of our generation. Ooops..I Did It Again? Not so much..

The shelf life of everything these days seems to be short. Clothes, movies, music, etc..It's a total shame. So on my blog, you will be introduced to new and exciting artists but also to artists who had great songs, singles and albums that went largely unnoticed. My vow to myself is to promote old as well as new music.

Hopefully soon I'll figure out how to stream songs on my blog to make it a little easier for you to listen to everyone I'm helping to promote.

Until then, xoxoxo Andrew.
