   About ford thurston
Ford Thurston's foundational background as an amazing country-blues guitarist has served him in his writing, recording, and performing endeavors in country, funk, pop and rock. It has been a journey marked by smashing regional success, critical acclaim, and loyal, eclectic fans.

After an intense period of personal and creative growth, a new dawn breaks for this dynamic artist. In his self-titled project, Ford Thurston reemerges with new vibrancy, musical maturity, and a country flair that draws influences from the best of his well-rounded past.

Ford Thurston combines down-home, 'aw shucks' sensibility with a twist of sincere sentimentality on a bed of music that instantly encourages the listener to ponder whether this is country, rock, or pop. This fresh offering is sure to garner the attention of hungry and ambitious radio programmers and critics alike. The antithesis of cerebral, these inward-reaching, organic and infectious songs are 100% radio, film, and TV show ready. It's music that speaks to the heart. Off the beaten path but squarely on the map, Ford Thurston is as much an homage to country's heart and the roots of blues as is it is the very definition of popular music's future.

Ford has opened for Lonestar, Billy Currington ,Travis Tritt, Gary Allen and Pittsburgh faves The Clarks and Donnie Iris. Currently working on a new album...check back for updates!!!

I’ve been a music journalist for more than 10 years. Over the years, many artists and managers have asked me what the best way to break into the European music market is.

Here are some things you can do:



Publish artist press releases, news, and tour dates to the CountryHome Forum on MySpace, http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazine , CountryHome Forum is part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine. Everything you publish to the CountryHome Forum will be published in my weekly Newsletter which has over 80,000 readers.



Publish artist interviews in English to http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazineInterviewsEnglish , interviews in French to http://groups.myspace.com/InterviewsAvecCountryMusicStars and interviews in German to http://groups.myspace.com/CountryMusikInterviews . All these groups on MySpace are part of CountryHome, http://www.CountryHome.de , Germany's Premier Country Music Online Magazine.



Send me CDs and DVDs for review and set up an artist interview with me. All reviews and interviews will be submitted to the magazines I'm writing for. More information for which magazines I'm writing can be found at http://www.MySpace.com/ChristianLamitschka



Upload artist videos to http://www.MyVideo.de and http://www.ClipFish.de . Both websites are like http://www.YouTube.com and uploading videos is free. The websites are completely in German. If you don’t speak German and need assistance, I will help you open an account and upload a video for 25 Euro. Each additional video upload for the same artist name and at the same video website is 10 Euro.



If you have more questions about the European music market or about any of the information I send to you today, please contact me at Ch.Lamitschka@t-online.de too.

alright, so people always say happy hump day for Wednesdays. I think its just as strange to say happy Uphill on Tuesdays, or happy Downhill on Thursdays, but i've never ever seen or heard anyone wish that.
