   About Kev Corbett



"He's like Leonard Cohen with a sense of humour...”

"His lyrics are so warm and earnest and hopeful. He's such a great musician. He is such a great storyteller. He is the best kind of folksinger."

"You are every bit as good as Chuck Brodsky."

"That song about driving through the snow storm made me tear up."

"That tune about John Allan Cameron is your 'Sad Eyed Lady of the Lowlands', dude. Stunning."


Kev Corbett is one of the best of Eastern Canada's bumper crop of fine young songwriters. His new album, 'Son of a Rudderless Boat' features 10 acoustic-flavored tracks that both engage and entertain, with zinger lyrics and a sound that borrows from classic folk, bluegrass, blues and jazz, without getting too cozy with any of those descriptors. His recent coming-out party at the Lunenburg Folk Festival in Nova Scotia earned him a long standing ovation, and a buzz status among the crowd and industry vets alike for the weekend. He has placed twice in the Telluride Bluegrass Festival song contest, and played legendary folk rooms The Yellow Door (Montreal), The Free Times Cafe (Toronto), and Club Passim (Cambridge MA). His music gets played both regionally and nationally on Canadian public radio, and he tours more and more every year. Visit www.kevcorbett.com

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.

When you like more information about country music in Germany please feel free to contact me.

Please submit artist news, reviews and events to CountryHome Forum, http://groups.myspace.com/CountryHomeMagazine , so I can keep German country fans up to date about their favorit country stars.

Warm regards

Christian

Hey there,
Here's one from left field...
Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while back I came across some very disturbing information, which inspired me to make this video:
Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella
www.youtube.com/watch?v=UaIim3Rj7L4
Both artistic (ensure you've good enough sound to enjoy the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.
Though the source materials are somewhat aged, the fundamentals remain relevant today.
I encourage all to visit the YouTube web page above to learn more (Show your support! Rate! Comment!) and responsibly re-post and circulate as widely as possible.
Help to raise awareness.
Say have you checked out my web site (www.faberoptime.com) recently?
Take care and keep in touch.
Best,
Faber.
