Americana Folk Rock Singer Songwriter Releases New Album "Simple Things" Recorded at Freemont Recording Studios - Mastered by Tone Proper
Subscribe Past Issues Translate View this email in your browser For Immediate Release Americana Folk Rock Singer Songwriter Releases New Album "Simple Things" Recorded at Freemont Recording Studios - Mastered by Tone Proper Portland Oregon (July 19, 2018) – Americana Folk Rock singer/songwriter Carl Solomon has just released his third album “Simple Things” and it’s quite the compilation. A personal collection of the songwriter’s from the heart songs that he delivers with notable passion. One of the hallmarks of Carl’s new release is the predominant incorporation of various Americana / Folk instruments that have been strategically placed at the beginning and throughout a number of his tracks. For instance on track ﬁve “Come What May” the arrangement incorporates an accordion and on track eight “Always Running” presents a banjo front and center. The noticeable incorporation of these instruments deliver a deﬁnitive distinction between the tracks. Another interesting feature of Carl’s new release is that the collection moves between various beats. For example track six, “Ticket To Nowhere” delivers a soft rock feel, noticeable but yet it does not over power the senses and therefore distract from the experience of enjoying the lyrics. Track seven on the other hand “Navajo Rain” sets itself apart with its subdued beat which again is not overpowering but quite different from track six. In total the album presents ten new tracks that is roots music at its best. Carl’s natural way of blending his music with his lyrics coupled with his marvelous storytelling capabilities presents the listener with a pleasant, enjoyable experience.

Recording and Amplifying of the Accordion in Practice of Other Accordion Players, and Two Recordings: D
CA1004 Degree Project, Master, Classical Music, 30 credits 2019 Degree of Master in Music Department of Classical music Supervisor: Erik Lanninger Examiner: Jan-Olof Gullö Milan Řehák Recording and amplifying of the accordion What is the best way to capture the sound of the acoustic accordion? SOUNDING PART.zip - Sounding part of the thesis: D. Scarlatti - Sonata D minor K 141, V. Trojan - The Collapsed Cathedral SOUND SAMPLES.zip – Sound samples Declaration I declare that this thesis has been solely the result of my own work. Milan Řehák 2 Abstract In this thesis I discuss, analyse and intend to answer the question: What is the best way to capture the sound of the acoustic accordion? It was my desire to explore this theme that led me to this research, and I believe that this question is important to many other accordionists as well. From the very beginning, I wanted the thesis to be not only an academic material but also that it can be used as an instruction manual, which could serve accordionists and others who are interested in this subject, to delve deeper into it, understand it and hopefully get answers to their questions about this subject. The thesis contains five main chapters: Amplifying of the accordion at live events, Processing of the accordion sound, Recording of the accordion in a studio - the specifics of recording of the accordion, Specific recording solutions and Examples of recording and amplifying of the accordion in practice of other accordion players, and two recordings: D. Scarlatti - Sonata D minor K 141, V. Trojan - The Collasped Cathedral.

Concert Promotion and Production
CHAPTER SIXTEEN CONCERT PROMOTION AND PRODUCTION hile the monetization of recorded music has struggled mightily for years, it’s W a different story for live concerts. Although hardly immune to the vagaries of the greater economy, live music has an enormous economic advantage over recorded music. A fan must generally pay hard dollars to enjoy a live performance by a favored act, while an unauthorized shared download or a free streamdistribute puts little or nothing in the artist’s pocket. Music concerts generated $8.2 billion in surveyed 2017 ticket sales in North America, according to industry sources, not including the value of resale of tickets on the secondary market and the many acts that don’t tour nationally. Add to that sum ticket resales, corporateor sponsorships, and the economic spillover for supporting vendors and restaurants, and the vast economic footprint of live music becomes obvious. Besides generating substantial revenue from ticket sales, live concerts boost record sales. Live concerts also increase demand for artist-related licensed mer- chandise, such as T-shirts, posters, jewelry, keychains, and books. Concerts and the sale of ancillary products are so critical that major recording companies are reluctant to sign an act that doesn’t also have a compelling stage presence. And if the label does sign the act, there’s a goodpost, chance it’s part of a broad 360 deal that yields the label a healthy piece of the box office and licensed merchandise income, among other revenue streams. Three key players move and shake the concert promotion industry: the event promoter, the artist’s manager, and the tour-booking agent.

Table of Contents HOW TO USE THIS CHECKLIST 3 MELODY/RHYTHM 6 CHORDS/HARMONY 8 LYRICS 10 MISCELLANEOUS 12 How to Use This Checklist The Songwriter’s Checklist is meant to help you when you feel that your songs are failing in some way. Don’t use it if your songs are working. Why? Some songs work really well despite perhaps violating conventional wisdom (e.g., they might have a chorus melody that’s lower than the verse). In those cases, you might inadvertently damage an otherwise great song. But if you’re feeling that the song you’re working on just seems to be missing the mark, see which items on the Checklist are present, and which ones might be missing. Remember that songwriting is a process of creation that involves spontaneous assembling of ideas, and improvisation. A checklist as a means for checking that kind of work might seem counterintuitive, but in fact it allows you to slow down the creative process and look at what you’ve written from a more objective standpoint. Here’s the best way to use the checklist: 1.

Piton Wealth Raises Over $5,000 at Benefit Concert with Singer-Songwriter James Lanman ______
PITON WEALTH RAISES OVER $5,000 AT BENEFIT CONCERT WITH SINGER-SONGWRITER JAMES LANMAN _____________________________________________________________________ 16 July 2019 (KENNEWICK, WA) For two decades Michelle Clary and her team have operated in wealth management in the Tri-Cities, first as an affiliate practice of Fortune 500 company Thrivent Financial and as of 2018, the CEO and founder of Piton Wealth. It isn’t difficult to see how Clary and her team have consistently ranked in the upper 1% of Thrivent practices in client satisfaction. Taking an active role in the local community and bringing people together for a good cause seems to be second nature for a company that revolves so heavily around encouraging clients to thrive both personally and professionally. In 2017, Michelle and her husband Andy opened their home to singer-songwriter James Lanman who was on a living room concert tour across the US and Canada, where he performed for a mix of their clients and friends. The following year, Michelle had the idea to leverage the draw of live music, food from local eatery, Porter’s Real BBQ, and their expansive network by turning it into a fundraiser. Teaming up with Lanman to sell tickets to his performance at their home, Piton Wealth then matches all ticket sales from the concert to raise money for the Tri-County Habitat for Humanity branch, where Andy also serves on the board. They also have a tradition of a side contest where guests bring their A-game side dishes and judges select the top 3 winners. Now in its third year, what has affectionately become known as “Kennewoodstock” between Lanman and Clary, has become quite the event.
