Another great has left us…Dexter Romweber who I first saw on I.R.S.’s The Cutting Edge…marveling that someone my age could have a voice so soulful. It was seeing him in Athens Ga. Inside/Out that peeled my head open. He stood out in a film filled with established legends.

I was working on a new song that I’m calling ‘Bad Day’ while the kids were playing.
I stop and my 4 year old says, “Dad, can you play that Bad Day song again?” I started playing it and she sang the chorus.
That’s better than any Grammy or Spotify editorial playlist

Do you know how disheartening it is to play a show of songs you’ve written to a small crowd in your town, then ending your set just as the cover band playing in the huge pavilion up the street lets out and you see how many people are leaving that show?

I have a hypothesis, let me know if you think this is true:
Seems like people who are really big music fans (people that go to shows, follow bands, etc) still like to buy music to own via Bandcamp, iTunes, CDs, etc. They don't necessarily stream.
Is this true?
