“You can’t touch music, but music can touch you.”
I really love that quote but saw it attributed to at least four different people. Bottom line, if you have followed me for any length of time you know I love music. Am crazy about live music. And my taste shifts over most genres.
Something I whole heartily agree with is the push in the last few years to shop local. This works for music as well. There is a lot of talented artists who have not had that big break yet, or unfortunately never will. I have supported a few local bands in my life, two disbanded due to a husband and wife split within the group, one split for solo opportunities and one of my favorite ones only played through college and then got “real jobs” – how disappointing, but I still wish them the best!
This day and age the path of a successful artist does not necessarily rely solely on the local bar scene. There is YouTube and Facebook and so many other online sources for music. So tonight I am going to share a couple of artists I have found through one source or another thanks to the internet. I hope you enjoy one or more of them.
The first musical viral video I got hooked in on, forgive me for posting Christmas music before Thanksgiving, but a do know a few people who celebrate both with certain families. Straight No Chaser…
A friend introduced me to the this group that will be in the state next month but with winter driving I cant guarantee I could get there if the weather is bad, so no tickets for me. Postmodern Jukebox…
A friend who is into more heavy metal music found this cover artist who does a pretty good job. Leo Moracchioli…
And last but not least an artist my daughter introduced me to Greta Van Fleet…
There is also Lindsey Stirling, 10 Second Songs, Apocalyptica, 2 Cellos, Peter Hollens … the list goes on.
