Creative Bliss – Artistic Mania!
This week features a guest blog from Dominick Pages, who was the guest on Episode 8 and on Episode 56 of our weekly show, “Now Hear This Entertainment.” He is the owner of Crystal Blue Sound Studios and also plays and sings in longtime classic rock band Crystal Blue. Plus, he’s the executive producer of the Web series, “Abbey Rid
Facebook friends? But, we just met!
One Sunday morning in church a few years ago a little boy sat next to me while the rest of his family was just across the aisle from him. While being respectful of the fact that we were in church, there was just enough conversation to make a nice little connection. Not too long before dismissal he looked up at me and asked, “Do you want to be friends?” It was very cute. I believe the boy told me
How to Use Radio & Music Blogs to Promote Your Tour
This week’s guest blog is fitting for two reasons. First is because there has been a blog published on this site every week for what will be two years as of the end of next month and they’re always focused around entertainment. (See the headline above?) Second is because it’s provided by MusicSubmit, who are the folks that we’ve gotten a good number of guests from for our weekly show, “Now Hear This Entertainment.”
The Voice and Beyond!
This week’s guest blog is from Julie Moriva, a Wisconsin-based singer/songwriter who was the guest on Episode 112 of our weekly show, “Now Hear This Entertainment.” Since she’s talking a lot about “The Voice,” it seemed fitting to follow up last week’s guest blog by Tim Halperin (on his “American Idol” experiences) with this entry. The ups-and-downs and
My American Idol Experience Unfiltered: Pt. 3, The Live Show
This week’s guest blog is from Tim Halperin, the guest on Episode 70 of “Now Hear This Entertainment” and one of the top 12 males (out of more than 115 thousand) on Season 10 of “American Idol.” Although there have been participants on “American Idol,” “The Voice,” and “America’s Got Talent” on NHTE, time and other topics that need to be covered prevent the interviews from getting as in-depth about the experience on those reality shows as Tim gives here, which
Removing the “DUHs”
This week’s guest blog comes from the guest on THE most popular episode in the two-and-a-half year history of “Now Hear This Entertainment.” (So much so that he was invited to come back on the show for a second appearance.) He is Nashville-based singer/songwriter Marc-Alan Barnette, who has written more than three thousand songs. This was originally published on his we
Passing the Torch in Canadian Music. Canada’s Music Incubator.
This week’s guest blog is appropriate because of the recurrence of related topics such as contests – which has come up more than once on “Now Hear This Entertainment” – and your attitude (below being specifically about one of gratitude), which is addressed a lot in Bruce’s Bonus Book Volume 2. Singer/songwriter Maddy Rodriguez is the writer of the inspirational blog below, which she published on her website last August. She had been the guest on
Where in the World is Whitherward?
The guest blog series continues with one from singer/songwriter Ashley E.
Dream BIG!!
As promised last week, today begins a series of guest bloggers. First up is a piece that was written a little ways back yet still provides a helpful message. It's by singer/songwriter Shannon Magrane, the guest from way back on Episode 3 of “Now Hear This Entertainment.” She was a top 12 finisher on “American Idol” in 2012.
Hi Magrane Train!!
Make a 4th of July Resolution
It’s Independence Day and the 186th day of 2016. That means we’ve just passed the halfway point of the year.
It’s a day off for many, as families and friends gather for 4th of July parties. Many businesses are closed in recognition of the national holiday.
