Making a Scene Presents an Interview with D'Lakesd'Lakes has a new album and it's amazing! It has a specular title too "HEAVEN IS A SILENT DISCO." I can't wait for you to hear it! I really appreciate all the chances and direction that Drew and his band took on this album. It's bright, punchy, colorful and oh so memorable! I find myself singing his songs long after they are over. Their second track Laughing as A Symbol (Note Passing) is one of my absolute favorites! Their first track Dare To Be Bogus is sassy and I love it! Track 3 Not So So-So Anymore is just as fabulous! Drew takes an honest approach in his lyrics and doesn't hold back. That is something I can get behind! I could hear these songs in a movie soundtrack for a coming of age teen drama. They are hip, spunky and driven! If you would like to chat with Drew directly please let me know I would be happy to oblige. Now for the scoop on their album release show: http://www.makingascene.org

Making a Scene Presents an Interview with Mark JosephAmerican Soul is a fitting brand for Mark Joseph; since his 2017 album by that title, he has charted a relentless and soulful course through America, and Americana, from blues to country to psychedelic rock and everything in between.  On his newest offering, “Palisade Peach,” Joseph’s fourth full-length album, he continues this journey, from his soul, straight to your heart. It is a “blues” album in the truest sense of the word, with familiar 12 bar strains that echo the march of American music from the rural southern US up the Mississippi, to cities like Minneapolis and Chicago where it found a wider urban audience; it is the blues that has given rise to “rhythm and blues,” to “soul” and to “rock and roll.” You find it all on “Palisade Peach.” http://www.makingascene.org
