CREATES NEW COMMUNITY AMONG BROADCASTERS, RADIO PROGRAMMERS, ARTISTS AND INDUSTRY PROFESSIONALS
Malibu, CA – June 23, 2014 – Who else but Michele Clark could bring together Erik Logan, President of OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network, infamous rock superstar Scott Weiland of Stone Temple Pilots fame and Leanne Summers, President of non-profit Los Angeles Women in Music, together with hundreds of radio stations and entertainment industry executives for a packed weekend of rock music showcases and discussions on the ever-evolving state of business?
 
“Our main purpose is to expose the passionate tastemakers & gatekeepers of the entertainment industry to the brightest new stars of tomorrow,” comments Clark, ”while creating a community of people who can make a difference for artists and for the world overall.”
 
Clark continues to build that mission to-date.  Sunset Sessions as a company has expanded to also include national tours for developing artists, an annual SXSW showcase of alumni artists, the staple  Triple-A radio conference that takes place every February, as well as an ”International Songwriter’s Retreat” that is in production to become a reality television show.  For more on Michele Clark and Sunset Sessions, visit www.SunsetSessions.org.

LP lends Her Music to Dance Video

lpLil-Buck

Lil Buck was introduced to LP’s debut album Forever For Now via Sol Guy and he said it INSPIRED him. All he wanted to do was dance to it. The two began discussing different artists and their particular roots of inspiration. Bruce Lee was another one of those for Lil Buck. They combined Bruce’s philosophy, LP’s haunting track and Lil Buck’s jaw dropping, bone breaking dancing into a mind-blowing celebration.

Lil Buck to the title track “Forever For Now” and put dance to it, what he calls Memphis Jookin.  Lil Buck gives some narrative to his dance and then it goes into the lyrics.  The video is shot in black and white which makes it a little haunting.  You can definitely tell that his influence is from Bruce Lee.  The video was done for a new upcoming show called The Talent Show, created by Sol Guy that travels to find arts that inspires individual.  It is a cool video with LP’s music and looks to be an interesting show.  Check it out from “Sol Guy’s” YouTube Channel – Richard:

This might be going to far.  I can’t see this in a house unless it was already built in to the existing structure.  Having this sticking our from the wall might make some significant others a little upset.  It is available though.  It is called a Cozy Room to allow for a secluded gaming experience or watching movies, sporting events, studying and what ever else you can think.  They cabinets can be custom built or you could just order the mass production model.  The mass produced model will set you back 398,800 Yen ($3,910.00) or if you opt for a custom cabinet 798,000 Yen ($7,823.00).

Gladshot’s EP “Maxwell’s Cool Demon”

gladshot

Gladshot is a group that gets it’s style from the late 1960’s. Their music is like a funkedelic type music (mix between funk and psychedelic music). The beats are “trippy” and the lyrics are “wavy”, but understandable, which is difficult for this type of music. A lot of times the lyrics get lost in the mumbling. Gladshot doesn’t do that, one can enjoy the rhythm and the lyrics both. This will be an acquired taste for individuals, but for the style of music they play Gladshot is one to check out. – Richard

We don’t have a sample of Gladshot’s music from their EP Maxwell’s Cool Demon, but if you follow the link it will take you to their website to give them a listen: http://www.gladshot.com/

We will also be featuring them in a podcast review for next month.
