DJ Spider and I LOVE doing interviews. So whether you are a local band (to San Francisco Bay Area) or traveling from far off lands, we want to know more about you, your band, and your music.
Any bands out there that would like to have their music played can send me a message and I will give you the information to send your music to the Music Director at KJCC.
I am in my thirties....I still have a lot to accomplish and a long way to go to accomplish it.
I keep a livejournal and have for 6 years - iceblink is my LiveJournal name. You can find out more about me there if you so desire.
My married name is Kraft, but I used to be Hubbard. Most people have known me over the years as Kitty.
Who I'd like to meet: I am looking for friends, I like chatting about a million things and I like meeting new people.
I am interested in new music of all sorts. Good music is good music and goes beyond genre, so don't be afraid to friend me or send me your direction.
Exciting News: my Dancing Electress CD is now available! Visit my profile for links to purchase it and to hear clips from each of the 22 tracks. (Also, check out my shirt designs in my blog) Thanks
I can't stand their vocalists, but the electronic instrumentals in the first song in their media player sounds like a ripoff of a song I can't place a name on (maybe a Depeche Mode song?):
**Please stop by my Blog on my page to check out the Online Costume Contest I'm having. All you have to do is post a picture of you in your costume in the comments to be entered. I do this contest every year and it's so much fun!!**
We have an EP of "unplugged songs" (called Acoustic) being released on Monday 4th June - as a little taster we have put a song up on the player!
We will be playing some of the songs (live) from the EP on Sunday 3rd June between 7pm and 8pm on BBC South Live – check out our profile for more details.
Hey! Wanted to drop you a line and say hey! I found a great band I thought you might like, Future Funk Squad. I've been listening to their tracks Audio Damage and Writers Blok non-stop!
