In early October I wrote one of my latest songs, “Wall Street Bail Out Blues.” Within four days of writing it, a video crew captured me playing it on the street at Seattle’s Pike Place Market and posted the video on YouTube. That video has now reached the attention of a writer for The Wall Street Journal who is writing an article about those who have written songs about our tough economic times. His article will be published this week and I’m excited to read it.
Who knows where this might lead? Call me an optimist, but I have a feeling that this could mean that a few more seconds of that elusive fifteen minutes of fame might be coming my way.
It ain’t the cover of the Rolling Stone but it’s not every day that a writer from a major worldwide news outlet seeks me out to talk to me about my songwriting. That’s a huge validation of my efforts at staying true to my vision. I must be doing something right.
I'm BluesBeaten Redshaw. I'm an Unsigned blues artist currently preparing to release my 2nd record in feburary (you can find tracks from this on my website and track from my first solo EP on my myspace page).
I hope you get a chance to check out my website, myspace and youtube pages (linked Below) and I would appreiciate any feedback.
