*** Website additions... an album experience: "So Long" by The Almighty Buck

We've been working on updating my music site. Here, you can stream our whole EP, plus scroll through lyric boards, see slide shows, read the credits. The goal here is to give the fans a place to get the "album experience" like we used to do with CD's, cassettes, and records. Also, it's something you won't get from spotify/apple/amazon etc. We're planning on doing more for other projects and welcome your feedback. Thanks!

> RELEASES by OUR OPEN MIC COMMUNITY

*** Danny Schwindinger: "Trailhead"

A singer/songwriter based in Boston with roots down the Jersey Shore, Danny grew up listening to Bruce Springsteen, Jimmy Buffet, Marc Cohn, and traditional Irish music. After writing songs and doing open mics for years, his debut EP,  "Trailhead" is out now!  It was produced by Terrance Reeves, (former co-host of Terry O’Reilly’s Open Mic Jam) and recorded at Q-Division Studios in Cambridge, MA. "Trailhead" comes in handy when you’re looking for something that can be played around the fire when you’re camping in the hills. Featuring Jimmy Buffett’s long-time bassist, Jim Mayer. Check out “Trailhead” everywhere:

Looking for someone to help you produce your music? Terrance Reeves is a producer, audio engineer, and musician based in Boston, MA. His goal is to work with artists and musicians from all levels to help them find a way to express what feels true to them through sound and recording. Terrance has an ear for finding just what a song needs to take it to that next level. Terrance Reeves is the former co-host, along with Andrew Geano, of the wild and infamous Terry O’Reilly’s Open Mic Jam. If you need a record made, Terrance says he’d be happy to help!
