helped shape 78 00:03:59.919 --> 00:04:02.039 me into the artist that I am today. 79 00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:06.599 Did you grow up with listening to Stevie Nicks, Yeah, yeah, 80 00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:09.879 I can. I can hear. That's that's cool. That's cool. 81 00:04:10.000 --> 00:04:13.319 You know, when I was in Australia, Maddie and everyone, 82 00:04:13.439 --> 00:04:16.199 describe your music, Describe your music. I hated that question. 83 00:04:16.600 --> 00:04:24.399 I finally used to say, taste like chicken. And one 84 00:04:24.439 --> 00:04:26.399 of the reasons I hated it is because, you know, 85 00:04:26.639 --> 00:04:28.519 I mean, I grew up in the seventies when I 86 00:04:28.519 --> 00:04:30.959 thought music was fantastic and they and you could have 87 00:04:31.000 --> 00:04:33.639 a you get a rock song, a country song, a 88 00:04:33.680 --> 00:04:36.720 folks song, a disco song, all in the same record, 89 00:04:37.079 --> 00:04:40.319 you know, and it was great. You know, the versatility 90 00:04:40.399 --> 00:04:43.439 was fantastic, and then you know, the music industry got 91 00:04:43.439 --> 00:04:45.199 involved and started saying, you know, we can make more 92 00:04:45.279 --> 00:04:49.040 money if we pit country people against rock people. And 93 00:04:49.160 --> 00:04:52.519 rock people against disco people, and you know, and that's 94 00:04:52.519 --> 00:04:55.160 what they did, and they successfully did it, and they 95 00:04:55.199 --> 00:04:58.040 divided music up and I hate that. And to me, 96 00:04:58.839 --> 00:05:00.759 I mean, you should be able to do whatever you 97 00:05:00.800 --> 00:05:02.600 want to do. If you want to write a song 98 00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:04.800 and have a horn in it and have a banjo 99 00:05:04.920 --> 00:05:07.600 in it, you know whatever, you should be able to 100 00:05:07.639 --> 00:05:09.879 do that, right. And that's one thing I respect about 101 00:05:09.879 --> 00:05:13.759 what you're doing is I hear those different genres in 102 00:05:13.839 --> 00:05:17.160 the music, and I got to say, keep going. This 103 00:05:17.199 --> 00:05:18.120 is fantastic. 104 00:05:18.959 --> 00:05:21.639 Thank you. That really means a lot to hear you 105 00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:25.480 say that. I've tried so as you've just said, I've 106 00:05:25.480 --> 00:05:29.839 tried so many different genres and I love pop, I 107 00:05:29.879 --> 00:05:32.959 love country music, I love rock, I love hip hop. 108 00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:35.839 So I've tried it all, you know, a little bit 109 00:05:35.839 --> 00:05:38.560 of everything, trying to find you know, what exactly what 110 00:05:38.759 --> 00:05:41.720 lane I want to stay in because I love it all. 111 00:05:45.360 --> 00:05:47.759 Exactly and you know you can but you can tell, Peter. 112 00:05:47.879 --> 00:05:50.319 I mean, our listeners can't see this because it's radio. 113 00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:52.319 But when she said I love rock, did you see 114 00:05:52.319 --> 00:05:58.800 her face change right there? You know? I love it. 115 00:05:58.959 --> 00:05:59.800 I love it. It's great. 116 00:06:00.560 --> 00:06:03.319 I mean, and I was a radio announcer back when 117 00:06:03.319 --> 00:06:04.680 it was pop and country, and I got to play 118 00:06:04.680 --> 00:06:08.079 all different formats. And I started out in top forty 119 00:06:08.279 --> 00:06:11.279 pop music, and then I got put into country, like 120 00:06:11.319 --> 00:06:13.800 old country, and I went, Oh, my god, how am 121 00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:16.759 I going to do this right? But then I started 122 00:06:16.759 --> 00:06:18.839 to learn the music and loved the music, and then 123 00:06:18.839 --> 00:06:20.639 I went on to different things. I went into big 124 00:06:20.680 --> 00:06:22.639 band and stuff. I just learned to love all kinds 125 00:06:22.680 --> 00:06:25.399 of music. And you know, back in those days, in 126 00:06:25.439 --> 00:06:27.639 the seventies and eighties, there was a lot of crossover, 127 00:06:27.879 --> 00:06:30.279 Like The Eagles were basically the first country rock band 128 00:06:30.279 --> 00:06:32.240 that made it successfully, and it was it's crossover, and 129 00:06:32.279 --> 00:06:34.279 there was so much crossover music. And I loved it 130 00:06:34.319 --> 00:06:36.439 because if I was in pop, I would get country, 131 00:06:36.439 --> 00:06:38.560 If I was in country, I'd get pop and so on. 132 00:06:38.639 --> 00:06:41.319 And I just thought it was amazing. Where you're right, Ray. 133 00:06:41.879 --> 00:06:44.399 Nowadays they try to sticky in a little box. 134 00:06:45.399 --> 00:06:48.399 Yeah, to me, it's a song. I mean, a great 135 00:06:48.439 --> 00:06:50.959 song is a great song. I don't care what genre 136 00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:52.920 it is. I don't care if it's rap, I don't 137 00:06:52.920 --> 00:06:55.800 care if it's disco, I don't care if it's country, whatever. 138 00:06:55.879 --> 00:06:58.360 A great song will always be a great song, and 139 00:06:58.439 --> 00:07:01.600 you got some great one there. So are you signed? 140 00:07:01.600 --> 00:07:03.439 Are you signed, Maddie? Are you signed on a label? 141 00:07:04.399 --> 00:07:06.560 Not yet? That's a big goal. 142 00:07:07.160 --> 00:07:07.959 Yeah. 143 00:07:08.120 --> 00:07:11.879 Listen, Ray, You're gonna love this because she does all 144 00:07:11.879 --> 00:07:14.439 of her own stuff. She does your social media, right, 145 00:07:14.439 --> 00:07:16.120 am I correct? You do all of your stuff right. 146 00:07:16.279 --> 00:07:20.160 You're your own manager, right. So now, Ray will tell 147 00:07:20.160 --> 00:07:23.639 you a story because getting management is tough and it 148 00:07:23.680 --> 00:07:26.000 can ruin your career or it can send you to 149 00:07:26.040 --> 00:07:27.720 the moon. Right, tell her what happened? 150 00:07:28.240 --> 00:07:30.600 Well? Which one? 151 00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:32.920 Just give

her the warning she needs. 152 00:07:33.560 --> 00:07:36.600 Well, I think that all I'm going to say is 153 00:07:36.639 --> 00:07:39.360 because of social media, you have opportunities we never had. 154 00:07:39.600 --> 00:07:42.040 Our career was more in the late eighties. This kind 155 00:07:42.040 --> 00:07:44.240 of stuff was coming in. But I mean, to make 156 00:07:44.279 --> 00:07:46.800 an album, you were looking at thirty forty fifty thousand 157 00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:50.839 on the cheap side, you know, And today I remember 158 00:07:50.839 --> 00:07:53.800 when digital recording first came in and it was like 159 00:07:53.879 --> 00:07:57.319 four thousand bucks a track, you know, and that was crazy. Now, 160 00:07:57.360 --> 00:07:59.319 of course you're gonna have for free. You're gonna have 161 00:07:59.319 --> 00:08:01.079 as many as you want. So you can do your 162 00:08:01.079 --> 00:08:03.439 own music in your apartment if you want to, and 163 00:08:03.600 --> 00:08:06.759 come up with something great. And and but you know, 164 00:08:06.839 --> 00:08:09.839 the thing that I want to say is that when 165 00:08:09.879 --> 00:08:14.680 you're signed to a label, your expenses, you know, are 166 00:08:14.759 --> 00:08:17.399 so high, and you have to make so much money 167 00:08:17.519 --> 00:08:21.360 just to break even. And yet when you do it yourself, 168 00:08:21.480 --> 00:08:25.000 you make a lot less. But it all goes to you. 169 00:08:25.079 --> 00:08:28.079 Don't be looking at this label as going, oh, yeah, 170 00:08:28.079 --> 00:08:29.879 I can't wait for that big label to come up. 171 00:08:30.040 --> 00:08:31.680 I mean, that may happen, and that would be good, 172 00:08:31.839 --> 00:08:34.039 But the best time for those labels to come around 173 00:08:34.360 --> 00:08:36.799 is after you've already made a name for yourself and 174 00:08:36.879 --> 00:08:39.559 after you're already taking the whole pie home, you know, 175 00:08:39.960 --> 00:08:43.440 because then you got you have leverage. Now, sure they 176 00:08:43.440 --> 00:08:45.879 can get you a larger audience. That comes without question, 177 00:08:46.600 --> 00:08:50.200 and sometimes that comes with a consequence. Well you can't 178 00:08:50.200 --> 00:08:52.480 have this song on the album, or you can't use 179 00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:54.039 that guitar player, you know. 180 00:08:54.440 --> 00:08:56.240 And you start to love the creative control. 181 00:08:56.720 --> 00:09:00.480 Yeah right, And to me, that's that's more important. I'm 182 00:09:00.519 --> 00:09:03.840 more happy now without a label, rating my own stuff, 183 00:09:03.919 --> 00:09:07.440 doing what I want than i've ever been exactly. 184 00:09:07.919 --> 00:09:10.120 Yeah, that's the levers that they have. And it's also 185 00:09:10.159 --> 00:09:13.879 a matter of funding all the projects because a lot, 186 00:09:14.080 --> 00:09:18.720 a lot goes into you know, not even just studio recordings,

187 00:09:18.759 --> 00:09:23.320 but it's music videos, photo shoots, making sure that your 188 00:09:23.320 --> 00:09:26.200 promo shots and your head shots and everything is up 189 00:09:26.240 --> 00:09:28.320 to date because you got to look exactly like the 190 00:09:28.320 --> 00:09:32.639 photo that you are, you know, branding yourself as an artist. 191 00:09:33.360 --> 00:09:35.320 You know, if my hair looks different in a photo, 192 00:09:35.559 --> 00:09:37.759 like and I do an interview, You're gonna expect me 193 00:09:37.799 --> 00:09:40.399 to look like I do in the photo. So yeah, 194 00:09:40.960 --> 00:09:43.679 there's a lot of funding that like little stuff and 195 00:09:43.720 --> 00:09:47.200 it all adds up, and the disc is always. 196 00:09:47.080 --> 00:09:49.159 That was always my problem. I'd send out a photo 197 00:09:49.240 --> 00:09:51.679 and that I show up in person. What happened? 198 00:09:53.200 --> 00:09:59.000 It was this guy. Yeah, but my distribution company that 199 00:09:59.080 --> 00:10:01.320 I use, I use distro Kid. Have you ever heard 200 00:10:01.320 --> 00:10:01.960 of distro Kid? 201 00:10:02.039 --> 00:10:05.039 Yeah, you know what recently I have and I was 202 00:10:05.240 --> 00:10:07.200 meant to look into it. Tell me more about that. 203 00:10:08.639 --> 00:10:12.840 Yeah, So it's very easy to navigate. You just you 204 00:10:12.960 --> 00:10:16.799 make a account, and you do have to pay for it, 205 00:10:17.000 --> 00:10:19.840 and obviously the more you pay, like the different level, 206 00:10:19.960 --> 00:10:24.679 the more you can get and just a matter of 207 00:10:24.840 --> 00:10:29.080 I mean, so basically I upload everything myself to distro kid, 208 00:10:29.480 --> 00:10:32.919 and I set a release date for my song and 209 00:10:32.960 --> 00:10:35.799 then that release date. They usually recommend like two to 210 00:10:35.960 --> 00:10:39.080 three weeks ahead of time, just to guarantee that it'll 211 00:10:39.080 --> 00:10:42.080 make it to all the stores and different apps on 212 00:10:42.120 --> 00:10:43.679 the same day, because if you do it too soon, 213 00:10:43.720 --> 00:10:45.360 then they'll be like, ah, we didn't have enough time. 214 00:10:45.559 --> 00:10:49.200 It's not on iHeartRadio or you know so and so. 215 00:10:49.200 --> 00:10:49.279 So. 216 00:10:49.879 --> 00:10:51.919 I mean that's I've gotten to the point where it's 217 00:10:51.960 --> 00:10:55.000 pretty easy for me now to navigate that. But a 218 00:10:55.000 --> 00:10:57.720 lot of time goes into it to not just like 219 00:10:57.799 --> 00:11:00.279 you have to make the cover art for everything, you know, 220 00:11:00.919 --> 00:11:04.000 and I'm very particular with that as an artist, you know, 221 00:11:04.039 --> 00:11:06.480 because I'm doing everything I want to be perfect. You 222 00:11:06.600 --> 00:11:09.480 upload the lyrics, make sure that's cool, and type in 223 00:11:09.559 --> 00:11:13.159 all the credentials. It's pretty time consuming, it is. 224 00:11:13.200 --> 00:11:14.759 So are you a graphic artist as well? 225 00:11:15.879 --> 00:11:19.120 Well, I'm my own graphic artists. Yeah. Funny enough, my 226 00:11:19.240 --> 00:11:22.559 mom went to school for graphic design in Philadelphia, So 227 00:11:22.600 --> 00:11:24.759 I think that might come in my DNA, you know 228 00:11:24.759 --> 00:11:26.320 what I mean. Why I can just do. 229 00:11:26.279 --> 00:11:29.919 It so timetually yet the whole family involved. That's a wonderful. 230 00:11:30.639 --> 00:11:31.360 Yeah. 231 00:11:31.440 --> 00:11:33.639 The industry has changed so much. And we were talking, 232 00:11:33.639 --> 00:11:35.799 have you ever heard of the band Starbuck Moonlight feels 233 00:11:35.840 --> 00:11:40.840 right if you heard the song, I guess yeah, you've 234 00:11:40.840 --> 00:11:42.879 heard the song. Anyways, he's a good friend of ours. 235 00:11:42.879 --> 00:11:44.240 He's been on the show many times, and we were 236 00:11:44.279 --> 00:11:47.039 talking to him last time, just a couple of months ago, 237 00:11:47.519 --> 00:11:49.559 and we were asking him how, you know how he's 238 00:11:49.600 --> 00:11:52.120 doing it. He's charting, he has to be if he's 239 00:11:52.120 --> 00:11:55.799 not eighty close to eighty. He is still charting with Starbucks, 240 00:11:56.279 --> 00:11:58.879 and actually on one of the stations, on one of 241 00:11:58.879 --> 00:12:01.799 the charts, he is a number one. Bruno Mars was 242 00:12:01.799 --> 00:12:05.159 at number two, if you can believe it. But he said, 243 00:12:05.240 --> 00:12:06.639 it's not like the old days, where you know, you 244 00:12:06.679 --> 00:12:08.720 put them on radio stations, which ray Eddy wont and 245 00:12:08.720 --> 00:12:12.200 flogged the records everywhere to try and get on the air. 246 00:12:12.840 --> 00:12:15.480 It's a whole different ballgame now and they sort of 247 00:12:15.559 --> 00:12:18.399 have to know you. But there are so many people 248 00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:22.840 that are creating songs daily with AI that the people 249 00:12:22.879 --> 00:12:24.879 who are judging whether you're good enough to be on 250 00:12:24.919 --> 00:12:27.120 the air are bombarded and they can't handle it anymore. 251 00:12:27.360 --> 00:12:28.519 So you're going in the right door. 252 00:12:29.360 --> 00:12:33.519 Yeah, thanks, Yeah. Does that company does it pay you 253 00:12:33.559 --> 00:12:37.080 a royalty or is it the after they distribute it 254 00:12:37.320 --> 00:12:38.399 they pay the royalties. 255 00:12:39.360 --> 00:12:42.879 So every quarter, so every four months, I get a 256 00:12:42.919 --> 00:12:48.080 statement and it tells me exactly which streaming service, like 257 00:12:48.159 --> 00:12:51.639 each and every streaming service, and which songs it's streamed, 258 00:12:51.639 --> 00:12:54.759 and how much like it breaks everything down.

And then he met my 313 00:15:56.440 --> 00:15:57.159 mom and had. 314 00:15:57.080 --> 00:16:01.279 Me Oh there you go, sir.

He raised me listening to the coolest 317 00:16:07.840 --> 00:16:12.960 music and everything from rock and roll to movie soundtrack music. 318 00:16:13.639 --> 00:16:18.000 I have a big appreciation for John Williams, Danny Elfman, 319 00:16:18.879 --> 00:16:22.080 Hans Zimmer, like all the great composers. 320 00:16:22.159 --> 00:16:26.960 You know. Absolutely, yeah, yeah, So how did you get started? 321 00:16:27.200 --> 00:16:29.720 What happened? He bought your guitar, he said, Dad, I 322 00:16:29.799 --> 00:16:33.240 want to play guitar? Or Dad? How did it go? Well? 323 00:16:33.480 --> 00:16:38.159 I started singing the same time I started talking. From 324 00:16:38.240 --> 00:16:41.200 a very young age, from like a toddler, I was singing. 325 00:16:41.240 --> 00:16:44.759 I'd walk around in my diapers singing and they were like, 326 00:16:44.879 --> 00:16:48.600 she's going to be a singer. Ye, So from there, Yeah, 327 00:16:48.639 --> 00:16:51.679 it literally started when I was in diapers and when 328 00:16:51.720 --> 00:16:54.679 my dad had shows, my mom and dad they put 329 00:16:54.720 --> 00:16:56.360 me up on the stage and I'd be dancing around 330 00:16:56.399 --> 00:16:59.039 the stage in my diaper. So I had a taste 331 00:16:59.039 --> 00:17:02.519 of it very young and in school, in elementary school. 332 00:17:02.759 --> 00:17:07.119 Starting in kindergarten, I was doing the Variety show every 333 00:17:07.160 --> 00:17:10.759 year with my friends. Okay, started off just doing dances,

334 00:17:10.880 --> 00:17:13.559 and then I'd start singing and dancing, and every year 335 00:17:13.599 --> 00:17:15.640 I did the Variety show. And then in middle school 336 00:17:16.119 --> 00:17:21.160 I started doing the national anthem for pep rallies, soccer games, 337 00:17:21.319 --> 00:17:25.279 football games, basketball games, and I became known as like 338 00:17:25.400 --> 00:17:28.359 my school's go to girl for a national anthem. And 339 00:17:28.480 --> 00:17:33.279 this went up into high school too. And yeah, that's 340 00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:36.680 actually one of my favorite songs to sing national anthem. 341 00:17:37.079 --> 00:17:40.119 Oh absolutely, it's a great song. I always had to 342 00:17:40.160 --> 00:17:44.680 sing the American national anthem. I remember one time in Cornwall, Ontario, 343 00:17:45.200 --> 00:17:48.079 at a hockey game, I sang the American national anthem 344 00:17:48.480 --> 00:17:52.400 and Jeff Healey sang the Canadian national anthem. But you 345 00:17:52.480 --> 00:17:54.400 know what used to mess me up is that sometimes 346 00:17:54.400 --> 00:17:57.799 it'd be such a delay from when you started hearing 347 00:17:57.880 --> 00:18:00.480 your voice again. I used to have to put any plugs. 348 00:18:00.680 --> 00:18:02.720 It would totally mess me up all the time. 349 00:18:02.759 --> 00:18:04.519 Yeah, well that's what I would just hold my ear, 350 00:18:04.720 --> 00:18:10.519 my one ear. That would kind of help me. But yeah, 351 00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:14.640 I was doing that all throughout my elementary, middle school, 352 00:18:14.720 --> 00:18:18.359 and high school years, variety shows and national anthem. And 353 00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:21.440 then in high school, when I was around fifteen sixteen 354 00:18:21.519 --> 00:18:24.559 years old, I started going to this coffee shop down 355 00:18:24.599 --> 00:18:29.799 the street in Newtown Square called Burlap and Bean. Oh yeah, yeah. 356 00:18:30.079 --> 00:18:32.319 I'm not sure if they're still there or not, but 357 00:18:32.680 --> 00:18:36.480 shout out to bur lapinban you are. I used to 358 00:18:36.519 --> 00:18:39.000 get up there and do it in Mike with my 359 00:18:39.079 --> 00:18:41.279 friend Sam Vile. Have you ever heard of Kurt Vile? 360 00:18:42.079 --> 00:18:43.400 No? Not, I have not. 361 00:18:44.640 --> 00:18:49.000 Oh he's an amazing He's a really really cool rock 362 00:18:49.160 --> 00:18:52.920 folk artist. And his younger brother, Sam Vile, is a 363 00:18:53.000 --> 00:18:55.119 good friend of mine. We grew up together and he 364 00:18:55.119 --> 00:18:56.880 would play the guitar and I would sing, And that 365 00:18:57.039 --> 00:19:00.440 was before I really became good at guitar. My mom 366 00:19:00.519 --> 00:19:03.119 bought me my first guitar for a high school graduation 367 00:19:03.319 --> 00:19:07.240 gift in two thousand and nine, and it's an Ibanez. 368 00:19:07.720 --> 00:19:08.319 It's right here. 369 00:19:09.160 --> 00:19:14.039 Ah, beautiful, nice guitar. I know the folks, I know 370 00:19:14.079 --> 00:19:15.599 the folks in radio land can't see. 371 00:19:15.480 --> 00:19:20.960 It, but this is still I have five guitars now, 372 00:19:21.119 --> 00:19:24.039 but this still remains my favorite to this day. Just 373 00:19:24.119 --> 00:19:31.119 has a beautiful light light to it. So when my 374 00:19:31.200 --> 00:19:33.880 mom bought me my guitar, I just went on YouTube 375 00:19:34.279 --> 00:19:36.519 and I went first, I went to Google and I 376 00:19:36.640 --> 00:19:40.079 Google image a G chord and then I would just 377 00:19:40.200 --> 00:19:42.000 match my fingers up to it. And I did that 378 00:19:42.119 --> 00:19:42.759 for C and D. 379 00:19:43.200 --> 00:19:46.559 Yeah, I call that the G cord. It called finger yoga. 380 00:19:47.160 --> 00:19:48.000 Finger yet. 381 00:19:49.680 --> 00:19:55.160 Yeah. So I'm like playing that And when we grat 382 00:19:55.319 --> 00:19:58.079 so I graduated, but I still had like one week 383 00:19:58.200 --> 00:20:00.720 left to school. I went back in my English teacher 384 00:20:00.759 --> 00:20:03.599 at the time, mister Williams Rest in peace, mister Williams. 385 00:20:05.440 --> 00:20:06.839 I told him. I was like, hey, my mom got 386 00:20:06.920 --> 00:20:10.440 me a guitar and I learned GCD and he was 387 00:20:10.559 --> 00:20:12.200 like okay, He's like, well you should learn how to 388 00:20:12.279 --> 00:20:14.519 finger picket. And he taught me how to finger picket. 389 00:20:14.920 --> 00:20:15.440 Oh cool. 390 00:20:15.799 --> 00:20:19.839 To this day, I still use that same finger picking 391 00:20:19.920 --> 00:20:20.799 technique that he taught me. 392 00:20:20.960 --> 00:20:23.720 Yeah, you're very rhythmic. On the guitar, and that's wonderful. 393 00:20:24.880 --> 00:20:28.000 One of the things that that my guitar playing really 394 00:20:28.359 --> 00:20:32.240 improved in is that everybody wants to you know, everybody 395 00:20:32.480 --> 00:20:34.559 favors the left hand right because the left hand is 396 00:20:34.599 --> 00:20:37.640 the cord. But it's the right hand that that really 397 00:20:37.720 --> 00:20:39.960 drives everything. And if you if you if your right 398 00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:42.640 hand isn't there, your left hand's not going to be there, 399 00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:45.519 but the right hand. If you got that rhythm in 400 00:20:45.559 --> 00:20:47.680 the right hand, the left hand will follow suit. And 401 00:20:48.039 --> 00:20:50.559 and that's uh, that's when I teach guitar, that's exactly 402 00:20:50.640 --> 00:20:52.799 what I do. You can see that you got that 403 00:20:53.079 --> 00:20:56.319 rhythm right all through the You're very rhythmic, and it's 404 00:20:56.359 --> 00:20:58.880 that right hand that's pushing that left hand right. 405 00:20:59.640 --> 00:21:00.720 Yeah, it sure is. 406 00:21:02.200 --> 00:21:03.920 I got the rhythm as you can

see from the fingers. 407 00:21:04.000 --> 00:21:07.480 But unfortunately, I was bought a guitar by my parents 408 00:21:07.559 --> 00:21:09.440 and they couldn't afford much at the time. And I 409 00:21:09.559 --> 00:21:12.480 told this story before, but I'm not even joking. The 410 00:21:12.559 --> 00:21:15.160 strings were it was a steel guitar and the strings 411 00:21:15.200 --> 00:21:19.640 were at least an inch above the threats. So I 412 00:21:19.799 --> 00:21:22.960 learned CGD but by the time i'd finished it, my 413 00:21:23.079 --> 00:21:26.799 fingers are so swollen. I went, I don't want to 414 00:21:26.839 --> 00:21:29.039 do this. This is unbelievable. I had no idea why 415 00:21:29.079 --> 00:21:31.440 I heard so much, And then I think, I think, 416 00:21:31.519 --> 00:21:34.480 actually it was Ray hands me one of these guitars. 417 00:21:34.559 --> 00:21:37.759 I go, holy smokes, you just have to barely touch 418 00:21:37.880 --> 00:21:40.200 these things. I should have stayed in it, but I 419 00:21:40.240 --> 00:21:40.599 didn't know. 420 00:21:41.160 --> 00:21:43.880 Most parents think they're doing a smart thing. They buy 421 00:21:43.920 --> 00:21:45.640 a cheap guitar because they think, well, let's buy a 422 00:21:45.720 --> 00:21:47.559 cheap guitar because we don't know if our kid's going 423 00:21:47.599 --> 00:21:49.559 to stay with it. But they buy a guitar that 424 00:21:49.599 --> 00:21:52.119 you could shoot an arrow from the strings right because 425 00:21:52.119 --> 00:21:53.079 they're so far off the. 426 00:21:53.200 --> 00:21:57.000 Neck easily, and the poor kid can't shot cannonballs. 427 00:21:57.319 --> 00:21:59.319 Yeah, even I can't play it, you know, So. 428 00:22:01.559 --> 00:22:03.519 Did you, guys? I mean I'm asking both of you 429 00:22:03.599 --> 00:22:05.680 and I obviously you did. You got to be in 430 00:22:06.079 --> 00:22:07.960 plays at school and variety shows. 431 00:22:08.000 --> 00:22:11.039 Did you get to do that too, Ray plays? Yeah? 432 00:22:11.119 --> 00:22:12.599 But I wasn't into that so much. 433 00:22:13.599 --> 00:22:14.880 Yeah I didn't either. 434 00:22:15.279 --> 00:22:16.960 No, See, I always wanted to be I always wanted 435 00:22:16.960 --> 00:22:18.920 to be in the variety show. Although I did get 436 00:22:18.920 --> 00:22:21.079 to play the drums once in a variety show. Fake 437 00:22:21.119 --> 00:22:24.400 it anyways, but I always got turned down. It's like, nah, no, 438 00:22:24.960 --> 00:22:27.079 it was. I was so sad because I always wanted 439 00:22:27.119 --> 00:22:28.960 I always wanted to sing.

I mean, I remember when that 461 00:23:50.319 --> 00:23:52.279 show first came out and I was a vocal coach 462 00:23:52.319 --> 00:23:54.640 at that time, and my business went through the roof 463 00:23:55.240 --> 00:23:59.960 because of American Idol. But the only thing was everybody 464 00:24:00.359 --> 00:24:02.519 only would take two or three lessons because they thought, 465 00:24:02.680 --> 00:24:05.440 you know, that's all they needed to get on American Idol, right, 466 00:24:05.559 --> 00:24:09.559 and and you know, I was thinking, man, in one sense, 467 00:24:09.920 --> 00:24:13.119 it was great for the industry of teaching.

You, know yeah, that's true. 652 00:33:23.559 --> 00:33:25.359 THAT'S true i got a question for YOU because i 653 00:33:25.480 --> 00:33:29.000 find that, most bands when they start out and even 654 00:33:29.039 --> 00:33:31.119 as they, carry on they play a lot of. Cover 655 00:33:31.279 --> 00:33:34.960 STUFF and i know people who are singers and musicians 656 00:33:35.160 --> 00:33:39.960 and they are afraid to sing their, own SONGS which 657 00:33:40.000 --> 00:33:41.319 i think is a, major mistake. 658 00:33:41.839 --> 00:33:46.720 Huge Mistake. M yeah if there's any ADVICE that i 659 00:33:46.799 --> 00:33:50.839 can give fellow songwriters and aspiring artists out there is 660 00:33:51.000 --> 00:33:54.920 to do not be afraid to perform your. Own SONGS 661 00:33:55.559 --> 00:34:01.039 and i started out, playing, restaurants, wineries breweries. Phase BARS 662 00:34:01.680 --> 00:34:04.160 and i know that you think that they want to, 663 00:34:04.240 --> 00:34:08.000 hear covers which you know. Majority do but if you 664 00:34:08.199 --> 00:34:11.159 do perform your, own songs you're going to turn heads 665 00:34:11.920 --> 00:34:14.119 absolutely whether, or not because they're going to, be like what? 666 00:34:14.280 --> 00:34:15.840 Is this who? Is this and if you say this is, 667 00:34:15.880 --> 00:34:17.880 your song they're going. To listen. 668 00:34:18.719 --> 00:34:22.079 So wow, you know when, we started we had a 669 00:34:22.199 --> 00:34:26.159 cover band under the Name of tashi and they were 670 00:34:26.199 --> 00:34:29.039 not real SONGWRITERS and i was and our, manager said 671

00:34:29.079 --> 00:34:31.599 what if we put you, with them so they would 672 00:34:31.639 --> 00:34:33.960 go on. The road they would do the covers from, 673 00:34:34.880 --> 00:34:36.840 you know do three sets, of COVERS and i would 674 00:34:36.880 --> 00:34:40.599 go on at eight o'clock at night before anybody hardly 675 00:34:40.679 --> 00:34:42.880 was ending, the bar just maybe people, coming IN and 676 00:34:42.960 --> 00:34:44.920 i had to do a whole original set with them 677 00:34:44.960 --> 00:34:47.960 as the. Backup band and then later we moved it 678 00:34:48.079 --> 00:34:49.800 to the second set of, the night which was. The 679 00:34:49.880 --> 00:34:53.360 Busiest and i'll, tell you bad songs you got rid 680 00:34:53.400 --> 00:34:57.000 of them, real, fast right and we had, to learn 681 00:34:57.360 --> 00:34:59.719 like we had to learn to entertain an audience for 682 00:34:59.800 --> 00:35:02.960 a forty five minutes on only. Original material we got fired. 683 00:35:03.000 --> 00:35:06.400 Three times but, you, know again bad songs were, you 684 00:35:06.480 --> 00:35:12.599 know Are song my songwriting improved tremendously because we had to. 685 00:35:12.719 --> 00:35:15.320 Do that they, you know they had, that, pressure right 686 00:35:15.880 --> 00:35:18.840 and probably the best thing, that ever, you know ever happened. 687 00:35:18.880 --> 00:35:23.440 To us, but yeah. Your songwriting, you know so when 688 00:35:23.480 --> 00:35:25.920 you play live and you you're doing your, own songs 689 00:35:26.639 --> 00:35:29.480 it's a bold move to maybe start your set with 690 00:35:29.599 --> 00:35:33.440 that or, you know rather than, you know a lot 691 00:35:33.440 --> 00:35:36.840 of people they'll build to great two great cover songs 692 00:35:36.960 --> 00:35:38.400 and they'll put your song in the middle, of, That 693 00:35:38.559 --> 00:35:41.519 right so you never really know if if the, you 694 00:35:41.599 --> 00:35:44.360 know applause is for your song. Or not so a 695 00:35:44.440 --> 00:35:47.039 lot of times it's good to start something and just, 696 00:35:47.159 --> 00:35:49.199 go okay what do you think and ask the audience 697 00:35:49.199 --> 00:35:53.920 what do you think?

Sing IT when i, SING it 836 00:43:18.320 --> 00:43:23.440 i feel IT like i feel it's it's spiritual almost 837 00:43:23.480 --> 00:43:27.119 singing that because it's about the Love of america and 838 00:43:27.199 --> 00:43:32.480 it's just it's. Beyond me it's almost speechless a. LITTLE 839 00:43:32.519 --> 00:43:33.960 bit i have trouble finding the. 840 00:43:34.039 --> 00:43:36.159 Right words think of the blood that was shed for 841 00:43:36.239 --> 00:43:40.079 that flag and for that you know. That, Anthem YEAH 842 00:43:40.519 --> 00:43:42.639 and i Think in canada, right now they try to 843 00:43:42.679 --> 00:43:47.440 downplay what our veterans and the importance of. Our freedom, 844 00:43:48.639 --> 00:43:51.880 You know America, in canada no matter what, anybody SAYS 845 00:43:51.920 --> 00:43:54.679 because I have american blood on, One side canadian blood 846 00:43:54.679 --> 00:43:57.280 on the, Other side we're the. Same people we're the 847 00:43:57.320 --> 00:44:00.400 same country with the. Same IDEALS and i just found 848 00:44:00.440 --> 00:44:03.320 that the Patriotism in canada fell, right off and, it's 849 00:44:03.400 --> 00:44:07.000 like you've got to go back to. The, wars unfortunately 850 00:44:07.000 --> 00:44:08.599 you have to go back to the wars and understand 851 00:44:08.679 --> 00:44:11.840 without what those, people did the sacrifices men, and women 852 00:44:12.360 --> 00:44:14.199 we would not have. The freedoms, you guys would not 853 00:44:14.280 --> 00:44:15.960 be able to do. The singing we'd not be sitting 854 00:44:16.000 --> 00:44:18.400 here in a, radio station we'd be sitting under some 855 00:44:18.559 --> 00:44:20.800 kind of. Horrible RULE and i think when it comes 856 00:44:20.880 --> 00:44:23.840 right down, to it patriotism is understanding what people sacrifice 857 00:44:23.840 --> 00:44:25.320 to give you the freedom you. Have TODAY and i 858 00:44:25.400

--> 00:44:27.480 think maybe we take it. For granted. 859 00:44:28.880 --> 00:44:31.840 Our veterans would be rolling in their graves. Right, Now yeah, 860 00:44:32.320 --> 00:44:35.760 so yeah thank you, for that and thank you for being, 861 00:44:35.800 --> 00:44:37.719 a patriot and.
