Music Monday: Introduction to Steve Moakler

March 31, 2014March 31, 2014 DeanaLeave a comment

I get so tired of the drama of social networking and want to walk away and then someone sends out a tweet and introduces me to a new artist and I think “yeah” this is cool.

I’ve never heard of Steve Moakler. I like his music. Nothing super complex and yet it’s not overly simple either. Pop it isn’t. Thought you’d like him as well.

You can find him on ITunes here: STEVE MOAKLER ITUNES

FCC DISCLAIMER: No goods or services have been received as a result of this recommendation. I read about Steve on Twitter, like him and thought my readers would as well.

Music Monday: Don’t You Forget About Me, Simple Minds

March 17, 2014March 10, 2014 Deana4 Comments

Do you know what scares me the most? Being forgotten.

My leg is broken. My ankle is shot. It will be over a year before I am well enough to perform again. It’ll be 2015 before I’ll be allowed to ride with the Tulsa Diva’s.

All proof that I ever did comedy is in a video camera that was stolen last summer. I keep my Facebook page alive simply because I don’t want to be forgotten. I’m not alone.

Most authors, comics, actors,athletes, hope for just some small piece of immortality. We want to know we make a difference. That we matter. This song is for us.

Music Monday: John Hiatt, Have a Little Faith in Me

I love songwriters. Real song writers. Maybe I’m partial because I married one. Granted mine has a day job, so he’s more like an artist who eats. I love real musicians who not only actually play instruments, they write their own songs. I’d rather listen to an original than a cover. John has a […]

Now here is a love song that I can get into.

Music Monday: Bela Fleck and The Fleckstones A Celtic Melody

February 10, 2014February 10, 2014 DeanaLeave a comment

I am frequently at a loss for words that describe what it is I’m really aspiring to do with my banjo. Blue grass, folk, corny fun, Gospel, what? Bela Fleck is a magnificent composer. While I love all things banjo, the way this man brings out the depth and beauty of this instrument strikes me with pure awe. There is no style of music he cannot play be it bluegrass, new grass, jazz, Bach, or Celtic. If I achieve half his skill before I die, I shall die a fulfilled woman. I’ve never heard banjo played better than this.

This song was written by Peggy Seeger. This is Pete’s performance on banjo. When I think of banjo, I think of Pete Seeger style – boom ditty. I hope you enjoy.
