Welcome to the 2013 Rock Music Award for 2013! Please vote for your favorite song!
Just a heads up everyone that we added in the ability for us to track song reviews (written and received) as well as the top reviewed songs. They look a little funky now but should kick in tomorrow as the counts start to sync up. We will be adding the counts on the artist pages like we had before also.
Thanks!

Congrats to J ohn Warsham for being the Mixposure.com Artist of the Month. This man has some extreme talent so please check him out!
Bio:
Born in Fort Worth, Texas to a Baptist minister father and an English teacher mother, John Worsham began singing at a young age in church and school. At the age of ten he began playing guitar and began studying classical guitar at the age of twelve. He took classical guitar lessons from G. Ricardo Fusco of the Memphis Symphony Orchestra until the age of fourteen, when he began writing songs of his own after the death of his mother. John's first recording experience was at the age of 17 in Falls Church, Virginia. Fresh out of Fork Union Military Academy, he worked with Mike Auldridge (Seldom Seen, Linda Rondstadt) on a recording project with Allen Griffin. During those sessions, Allen recorded two of John's songs, "I Should Know" and "Outta My Way".
After playing solo and in various bands throughout his teens, John then went on to college in Nashville, Tennessee at Belmont University. At Belmont, he worked with various musicians who would go onto successful careers of their own: Jim Olander (Diamond Rio), Chris Rodriguez (Keith Urban, Kenny Loggins, Michael W. Smith), Dan Huff (Faith Hill and Madonna), Michael Mishaw (Natalie Cole, Michael Bolton), and Wade Jaynes (Amy Grant, Boz Scaggs, and Randy Newman) to name but a few.
After college, John wrote for the RokBlok music publishing company owned by Steve Gibson (England Dan & John Ford Coley, Michael Johnson, Martina McBride, and Lynn Anderson). John wrote for a division of the company called Sterling Music owned by Michael Snow (Bee Gees, John Lennon). It was under the tutelage of Mr. Snow and Mr. Gibson that John began writing his best material up to that time. While at RokBlok he also worked with other artists including Tom Kimmel and Kathy Mattea.
In 1987, John walked away from music and for the next 12 years did no performing or writing. During that time, he was a waiter, banker, stand-up comedian, and hairstylist. After moving to Omaha, Nebraska in 1999, he began to have the itch to want to write and perform once more. After attending a local music performance, and seeing the ongoing demise of the American music scene with clubs using karaoke singers and DJs as headliners, John decided to go full steam ahead into performance, writing, and recording. Following the death of his Father, and a divorce soon after that, John released "Hearsay", a collection of songs that reveal the stages of emotion during the process of divorce and loss. It was welcomed with great critical and audience acclaim.
To ready his chops for even larger Midwest venues, he began performing in coffee shops, bookstores, schools/universities, and as a worship leader/musician for local area churches. It was from this time in church work that the songs for his CD, “70 x 7”, were born. His CD, "Christmas This Year" came out in September 2010, and included classic Christmas songs, as well as originals by John. John's last CD,"One More Sunset", was released in the summer of 2012. John has performed many times for local icon Warren Buffett, Bill Gates, various senators, congressman, as well as other local and national luminaries. John is a member of the American Federation of Musicians Union, Local 70-558, in Omaha. - See more at: http://www.mixposure.com/john-worsham#sthash.vEdXwWz0.dpuf
Congrats to Shelter for having the Mixposure.com Song of the Week! Check out this excellent rocker!
Bio:
From the ashes of two prominent NZ rock acts, Shelter has emerged and are already beginning to make waves in the NZ music scene.
It was near the beginning of 2010 following the demise of premier Rock act Miscreant, that vocalist Chris Brebner found himself yearning for another musical creative outlet. After writing some solo material, Brebner contacted Damian Hilt & Alan Treanor, both previous members of Miscreant to gauge their interest in trying something stylistically different from their earlier collaborations. With all three in agreement to press forward on a new musical venture, the word was put out for a talented guitarist to join them on their endeavors. Joe Ravenhall answered the call and quickly added a new dimension to the group. With the final addition of Nathan Cooper on keys, Shelter had found their exciting new sound and were ready to head into the studio.
Fresh from New Zealand’s premier recording facility York Street Studios, Shelter have produced two tracks combining the purest elements of modern rock with intricate melodies to introduce the world to their infectious new sound. With more studio time booked with Premier music producer Andrew Buckton, the wheels are only just beginning to turn on the promising machine that is Shelter. - See more at: http://www.mixposure.com/shelter#sthash.MwxGw5fD.dpuf

Hey Everyone!
I just wanted to share some information with everyone. I know a lot of people wanted the old audio player back and we are in the process of having one built. It is being coded by the same person who coded the previous ones so it should have the same look and feel. He is going to start building it this week so hopefully in the next week or two we will be able to have that one back on the site.
On that same note, I have added in some code that will allow you to embed a playlist on any site. If you click your Playlist tab and you have an existing playlist, you will see a small link icon that will have the embed code. The player is the same one that appears on your page. So what this means is that if you want to embed your music on an external site, just go to your audio page and click the small music icon. Create a new playlist and then add each song to that playlist. You now have all of your music one one player.
I hope this helps!
Todd
