Please make sure you are voting on the Same Song Title Madness! The poll will end in a few more days so please vote!
I also wanted to thank everyone who has been doing song reviews!! If you are receiving song reviews, please do the courteous thing and provide some feedback on their music!! I am guilty of not reviewing songs lately so I too need to jump back in and start doing them. Maybe we need to do another contest on Most Song Reviews!
What do you guys think?
Hey Everyone!
I wanted to let everyone know that I added a small email icon on the artist pages so it will make it easier to message each other. It just links you into the private message system and has the user pre-populated. I know finding people could be problematic so I hope this helps!

A huge congratulations to Gary Teed for being the Mixposure.com Artist of the Month! Please stop by his page and have a listen!
I am an old aircraft engineer who was taken out of work due to my health. Wanting something to do, I got back into my music. I had learned the basic chords while in my 20s but had put the guitar away for 20 years. I was not serious about the music and kept my writing to myself. My mentor was a John Denver fanatic but, he pushed me to learn and the fingerstyle picking that he taught me kept me playing. In my late 20s, life got busy and I stopped. I even sold all of my gear. I have been bitten by the bug again and I am off and running now! Playing my guitar and singing all around here locally.
I also like to play with loops and samples to create music. Some of my loops I also played synth to and even sang on a couple. But, my best work, I think, is my singer/ songwriter creations. I do not really promote myself aside from this page.
Here are a few of my works. Give a listen and see what you think.
It looks like we will be going with a Same Song Title Madness for the next Site Tune. What we need now is some song titles. Please post some song titles and then we can vote for one.
Some things to keep in mind. When suggestion titles like "My Girl Just Left Me And Took My Life Savings and the Dog" might be fun, but it is also very difficult to write around a long title. Smaller titles will work best that leave it open to all genres.
So what title would you suggest?
I think it is time we do another Mixposure Site Song. The question is what do we want? Same Song Title Madness? Same Lyric Challenge? Chime in and speak up!!
Just wanted to apologize for the down time everyone. Our server indicated we needed a reboot and after the restart, it kind of went the way of the dodo bird. After playing with it for a day we just decided it was better to get a new server up and transfer the data over which only took a few hours. The only casualty right now appears to be the radio station and we will get that up and running asap.
Thanks for hanging in there with us!!

Congrats to Trevor Sewell for having the Mixposure.com Song of the Week! Amazing musician! Please check out the tune below!!
Bio:
Breaking News: Feb 7th 2014 Lovitz Theatre Universal Walk, Hollywood - Trevor Sewell wins The Best Blues Artist Award in the Artists In Music Awards for the second year running and also gains honourable mention in the Producer Of The Year category.
--------
Winner in the Hollywood Music in Media Awards 2011, Runner up in the British Blues Awards 2012 and winner of The Artists in Music Award for Best Blues Artist 2013 in Los Angeles. November 2013 saw Trevor return to America for a string of live shows, radio sessions and on the very day that his second album ‘Independence’ was released once again pick up the ‘Best Blues’ award at the highly prestigious Hollywood Music In Media Awards held in the lavish Henry Fonda Theatre on Hollywood Boulevard with his song ‘The Train’. The past two years have seen Sewell continue to go from strength to strength as his fan base continues to grow particularly in America where his debut album 'Calling Your Name' spent a staggering 7 weeks at number one on the American Blues Scene Chart.
A recent return to his roots has seen him widely recognised as one of the great emerging British guitar talents currently riding the wave of New British Blues gaining popularity
in the U.S.A. (source Artists In Music Official Programme).
Legendary Producer/Engineer Stuart Epps (Led Zep, Elton John, Bill Wyman) had this to say:
"I've only just met this brilliant musician but I can tell you he is the real thing. Heart felt, passionate and truly excellent rock/blues guitar playing and singing. Comparable with some of the greats I've had the pleasure to work with. Two of them called Lee, Albert Lee and Alvin Lee.
"Trevor is in my opinion from the same mould he gives rock/blues a new boost. You've just got to love it!!!"
The Trevor Sewell Band are:
Trevor Sewell - Lead Guitar and Lead Vocals
Brian Emerson - Bass Guitar
Steve Vine – Drums
Trevor was recently inducted to the American Heritage Blues Hall of Fame in the very same category as some rather better known artists such as Tommy Castro and Joe Bonammassa.
STOP PRESS: Trevor has once again been shortlisted for the Artists In Music 2014 ceremony where he is in the final 5 nominees (Best Blues) – The ceremony will take place at The John Lovitz Theatre at Universal in N. Hollywood on Feb 7th 2014 where he has also received an honorable mention in the category ‘Producer of the year’.
Well I hate to be back and forth on stuff but I think I have finally ditched the old forum and went back to the integrated forum . The login issues were just too much. While I hate to lose over 100k posts, I would rather start over than deal with users not being able to access the forum. The old forum is still up and can be accessed by going to http://www.mixposure.com/forum/ . I removed all of the code that linked it to Mixposure so you can reset your password in the forum if you ever want to go in there.
You will also notice on the main page, I moved the premium blogs out to the forefront. While that does make the main page a bit longer, since you guys are supporting the site I wanted to give you more visability. As a reminder, please remain respectful with what you post. While I know there are many similar sites like Mixposure, I can guarantee you they will not let you advertise Mixposure on their main page. We kind of have the same thinking 
. If you want to link to MusiciansFriend I am all for it, Just please refrain from Visit me at thisnewsite.com. I thank you in advance,
Todd
