As he got older his granddad (his idol and the only one to ever push him to his dream) gave him a keyboard to play and his music started from there. He would spend hours on end up in his room trying to compose a song but never quite grasped the concept of writing music. He took music as a GCSE at school in year 10 but his results came back as a G. After failing his music GCSE he moved away from music and set his sights on applying for jobs, in which he had no look no matter how hard he tried. At the age of 19 life was getting more and more stressful and Dreema ended up being diagnosed with depression along with low blood pressure. The stress that people brought sometimes got too much and so he turned his head towards music.

alan@josieshow.com (Alan Firestone) — Fri, 20 May 2011 17:00:00 PDT

Guests: Indie rock band Tommorrow Depends and singer/songwriter Lisa Barrett. Among the myriad of bands competing for mainstream attention, there is one group that is standing out from the rest of the pack. Tomorrow Depends is a three-piece alternative rock act from London, Ontario with the sound and energy from which legends are made. Recently nominated for “Best Young Songwriters” at the 2010 Toronto Independent Music Awards, as well as “Favorite Rock Group” at the 2010 London Music Awards, Tomorrow Depends is on it’s way to becoming a major presence in the music world. Their song “The Beauty of the Breakdown,” from their 2008 5-song EP release, was chosen for the Canadian extreme sports reality TV show “The Adrenaline Project.” The catchy, yet dynamic drive of the band is contagious – their popularity at the Provincial Youth Talent Search took them all the way to the top 13 of over 200 entries and made them finalists at the Jack Richardson Music Awards two years in a row (2009, 2010). These are impressive credentials, especially when you consider the fact that these guys are still teenagers - none in the band have even reached the ripe old age of eighteen. Lisa Barrett is hoping a lot of people will get online and vote for her song, "When You Look at Me," which has made it into round three of the international "Best Original Song" contest. If she wins, shell get her own Web page, and her song will be sent to dozens of recording companies, music labels (large and small), producers and agents. Barretts song was one of 100 from around the world chosen for the contest. Of thos, 48 made it to round two and, you guessed it, "When You Look at Me" was one of them.

After a few years up there, Ben returned back to the bay area and continued playing music, but really dove into music after moving again to Marin County where he lived in small place and studied music, pretty much lived and breathed it. After putting out a couple cds, Ben decided just to concentrate on writing and pitch to publishers. Madonna Nash, winner of the 2010 Female Country Artist of the Year at the Carolina Music Awards, has been singing for as long as she can remember. Nash comes from a very musical family. Her father toured the country playing guitar, and her mother was an honors graduate in music from East Carolina University. Nash’s great great uncle was Connie B.

And from nearby this makeshift venue, educators can witness a mini “Hard Day’s Night” moment. From these unusual beginnings, it should be no surprise that by 6th grade, Skyler was a multi-instrumentalist; by 7th grade, he was sleeping on the couch, so as not disturb the sanctity of the recording studio that his bedroom had become; or that by 9th grade, he had released his first full-length, all original CD

alan@josieshow.com (Alan Firestone) — Fri, 11 Mar 2011 17:00:00 PST

Guest: Recording artist Chelsea Rae returns to our show. Since before she was born into this world music has been influencing Chelsea Rae. Her mother attended a Judds concert when she was six months along with her and as the story goes over the years, it has been said that she could feel her kicking along to the rhythm of Kentucky duo. Since then Chelsea has continued to hold on tight to those early influences of country musics legends like the Judds and Wynonna and modern country stars like Taylor Swift, but has also seen her tastes blossom into other genres as she has grown and she can now state pop/rock influences like Kelly Clarkson, P!NK, Katy Perry and Colbie Caillat as well. She has been focused on writing and performing songs since she was only 13-years old and in 2008, an 18-year old Chelsea Rae made the big move to Nashville to pursue her dreams of writing and performing her music. She jumped right in and began to work on her craft in-between a busy schedule of school (former Belmont Univeristy student) and work . Over the past two years of living in Nashville Rae has been quick to blaze her own trail with the likes of Nashvilles finest including co-writing sessions Walker Hayes (Capitol recording artist), Bo Bice (Former Idol runner-up) and Bridgette Tatum (Co-wrote 2009s most spun song "Shes Country"). In the spring or 2009 Rae released her debut EP, "Justice," in memory of fallen classmate and inspiration, Justice Fockler. The five song album gave listeners a sneak peak into Raes country roots and spit fire attitude with lyrics like "Dont come cryin to me I see you shakin in your boots," and"Ask your neighbor for a dollar to cut the grass come Sunday me and dad we were catchin bass..." Currently Chelsea is in the studio recording her sophomore EP, "Ember,"

E069: Shea Fisher and Maddie Bradshaw on March 4, 2011 | archived on - Mar 05,2011

alan@josieshow.com (Alan Firestone) — Fri, 04 Mar 2011 17:00:00 PST

Guests: Country Recording Artist and Rodeo Champion Shea Fisher and 13 year old millionaire and author Maddie Bradshaw. Shea showcases an emerging artist with a clear sense of identity, combining youthful energy and a seasoned performers way with a lyric. They are qualities that made her the first female signing to Stroudavarious Records. Shea?s journey toward the country charts began not long after her birth in Victoria, Australia. In fact, her talents on two fronts were evident at a very young age. She was just 3 when, influenced by her parents (rodeo champion father Eddie Fisher and barrel racing champion mother Joanne), she began competing in?and winning?barrel racing competitions. Maddie Bradshaw has always been a bit of an overachiever. The 13-year-old is a straight-A student, plays three sports a year, and has a passion for art. So its perhaps not all that surprising that she would eventually add "entrepreneur" to the list "My familys really into recycling," Bradshaw says. "So I went to my uncles old-fashioned soda machine and found a bucket full of caps, and knew that I would need something magnetic so I took one." Bradshaw sketched a black and white abstract portrait of Albert Einstein, one of her inspirations, inside the cap. She put it in her locker and her friends quickly begged her to design more for their lockers.

She has been compared style-wise to Carol King and Laura Nyro.

Guest: Singer Katie Salazar. Twenty year old Katie Salazar from El Paso, TX, says music is “in her blood” and one could agree that talent is natural, after viewing her MySpace page to find that she already has a fan base. Ms. Salazar has a different sound and describes her sound as a mix of country, pop, and rock. Katie seems to understand what is important before making it big. She talks about what will keep her grounded in the business, when I ask how she will deal with fame (which she already has a taste of doing many interviews and having a fan base). Katie says, “staying true to myself & always putting God first & let him be my guide,” firstly, and, “focusing on what I love to do & have worked hard for my whole life and never forgetting that the reason why where Im at is because of the fans! Theyre the ones taking me places.”
