Hope you all will indulge me for a moment. Off topic, but I think some will
enjoy.
The music shop I opened a little over two years ago has grown into becoming
a popular performance venue for local musicians and songwriters.
We host "Open Mic Nights" and occasional mini-concerts featuring many
talented people and groups.
Occasionally someone comes along that stands out above the rest. This young
lady is an example. Hailing from a nearby town (Marshfield) she performed
an original song "Johnny Depp" at one of the Re-Tunes Open Mic Nights a few
months ago and anyone listening could tell she had serious potential.
Re-Tunes became an artist sponsor of Kiley and helped in a small way by
making a custom, handmade guitar available to her for recording and
performances. (The guitar is made by a local master luthier friend and is
featured in the video).
Anyway, last month she released a professionally produced music video
featuring her song "Johnny Depp". In less than a month over 8,000 people
have viewed it, including one of the VPs at Sony in Nashville, TN. I am
happy to report that Kiley has been contacted by Sony and is flying down
Thursday for a meeting with them. I hope it goes well for her.
For those who enjoy talented young performers ... here's a link to the music
video. It's "country rock" in nature. Best of all, Kiley is a
down-to-earth person with a great sense of humor. She takes her music
seriously but doesn't have the "it's all about me" ego that too many less
talented musicians suffer from.
Enjoy it!
