And looking at today's music scene, I think it's cool that there are a lot of consumers and fans not limited by what radio and the record companies tell them to buy.
I'm just happy and proud to be playing music every day. Recognition is really cool, but it can also be kind of scary.
I've got a couple of bands that I'm working on. The one I'm really excited about, we're called London The Child. It's folky music and it's really cool.
The late 20th century had just enough communication abilities to allow superstar-ness and communality to happen. It was a musical renaissance that rivals the visual one that happened in the 1400s.
Music is about communication... it isn't just something that maybe physically sounds good or orally sounds interesting; it's something far, far deeper than that.
Actors are agents of change. A film, a piece of theater, a piece of music, or a book can make a difference. It can change the world.
For the last three years, I've been working on 'Bromst,' and that's all that encompassed my brain. And now that it's out, it will change the way that I think musically.
How did this or that change my music? The only time I have to think about it is when an interviewer asks me that.
I'm a person who has always been clear about my love of music and vocal about trying to live in a way that lends itself to health.
Creatively, I'd like to achieve not only being an artist, but being a businessman and having my own music home.
Most of my career has been about standing on a stage performing music to an audience, and once the show is over, they go home and I go on to the next show.
I'd much rather go out and have music randomly presented to me by different DJs than stay home and discover it on my own.
I got a scholarship to Seattle University and I was writing arrangements for singers and everybody. But the music course was too dry and I really wanted to get away from home.
We have the insight and the tools to identify and bring to fruition the dormant talent that our artists possess. Favored Nations will be branded as the home base for inspired musical talent.
I certainly hope my music is in no way, shape or form influenced by anything that would be known as a jam band. If it is, then I'm going to do something else.
For me, music is my joy. It's my happiness. As long as this medicine, this chemo is in my body, I didn't have my love, my joy.
I know there's some kind of history to mountain music-like it came from Ireland or England or Scotland and we kept up the tradition.
I was able to endure and play a special part in music history. And I always managed to keep working, even if I wasn't a big solo artist.
At first, I was only interested in music, but I spent so much time in the clubs and seeing fashions change. So naturally, I developed an interest in it.
We always thought the Tom Tom Club could change to anything, but it acquired this image, which was cartoon animation and this real light-hearted dance music.
I guarantee you, yoga will compete with computers, music, sports, automobiles, the drug industry. Yoga will take over the world!
