BuzzCutz #047 - The ACME Episode

sadclownLance Williams is a fella from Elizabethton who keeps himself busy.  He owns and runs a couple of businesses, teaches guitar lessons, plays in more than a couple of musical projects, and always seems to have his hand in something.  He does a great job with ACME Music in Elizabethton, and is always open to trading with good folks, and setting kids up with instruments and music to get them started.  We had him on the podcast to talk about what is going on these days, and enjoyed the time.

Hope you do as well.  He’s playing guitar on the tunes on this week’s show, so give it a listen.

Note:  We thought this was the 48th podcast, but it turns out that we were working on number 47.  Just sayin’.

BuzzCutz #046 - The Rock Bash Episode

Tom joined Dave and I for the first segment of the podcast, and then had to take off for work, so we finished up a few hours later with Jimmy Southard and Alan Prince, who are working together to bring a great day of music to Rogersville next Saturday. The End of Summer Rock Bash is one of the best line-ups of heavy entertainment this area has produced , and we look forward to seeing what happens this year, and in the years to come. We had fun seeing Alan again, and it has been good getting to know Jim - hope you enjoy your introduction as well.

BuzzCutz #045 - The Billy Dee Williams Episode

gambleAlan Gamble joined us on BuzzCutz this week and brought years of talent and experience behind a drum kit, on the road, and onstage to the table.  Alan played his first gig in 1961, and shows no signs of slowing down - nor would we want him to.  He is still as solid as the day he started, and is constantly in high demand for bands, gigs, and recording projects.

Alan is currently playing with the JimJams, Bag a’Cats, and Clattering Trees, a recording project with Kevin O’Donnell and Dave Sieg.  Clattering Trees enlisted the aid of several good local musicians, including my wife, Vanessa Bentley, and Brandon Story, who you will hear singing on their second song.  So sit back and enjoy the podcast and the music, which also includes a last goodbye.

Mark Mahoney and Michael Peck are two guys with a lot of electronic equipment, spare time, and talent. They have utilized that spare time to create vast soundscapes and epic songs that create both ambient background and challenging composition. We had them on the show this past week to talk about the upcoming Electro-Music Festival in Kingsport, and to let us know what was up with their ongoing search for sound.

This is their story.
