Hello World! Whole Damn Mess!

 

Hello World!

Last month Whole Damn Mess opened for Candlebox at the Tupelo Music Hall in Derry, NH. I spoke with two of the bandmates, Don Miggs and Greg Hvnsen, after their performance. Both musicians were in agreement on listening to the Rolling Stones (only on Sunday) and Lizzo.  Greg likes Delacy and Cautious Clay too.  LP, The War on Drugs, and The National are on Don’s list. He also mentioned working on several projects including soundtracks for Sky Man and Harry Connick, Jr.’s upcoming I Saw a Man with Yellow Eyes.  So keep your ears peeled for those. Unfortunately I did not have time to chat with rest of their band. Don and Greg told me I would have a very eclectic mix of music if I did. I like eclectic. Maybe next time!

Lizzo- Juice

Cautious Clay- Crowned

The National- Light Years

The War on Drugs- Pain

Maybe You Could Love Me

Just have to add a Candlebox song too! This is one from the 2016 album-

Disappearing in Airports

Spotlights

Hello World!

It was one year ago today that 603melody.com was launched!  The idea is simple.       What are you listening to?  I love to share my musical discoveries, and musings as well as others’ thoughts. I think my family and friends are umm well relieved. I do not send them nearly as many Youtube videos to check out. I can’t help it if there is so much music to enjoy!

603melody continues to be a learning process. But I am excited to see what the future holds for the blog, and Instagram account (@603melody). Nothing ventured, nothing gained as the saying goes. I appreciate the continued love and support from my family and friends. I am also continually amazed by the kindness of strangers who take the time to answer my questions, and are willing to be part of this endeavor.  I can’t thank them enough!  Of course many thanks go out to all of you for following along. I know everyone has busy lives with a million and one things to do. If  you are new to 603melody or have not had a chance to visit past posts, please do so. But be warned -you may fall through the magical music rabbit hole! One song always leads to another! Hopefully 603melody will help you find some new songs, and artists; or perhaps you will fall in love again with a forgotten favorite.

Wishing you all a happy and healthy 2019!

Thanks for checking in!
