If you have a MySpace page you know how you get those annoying messages from people you've never met to be added to your page. Especially new singers and bands. Everyday I have some to go through, and most of the time it's from bands or singers that I have no affinity for. Every now and than I'll get one that I think is interesting and I'll add it to my page.
And than, very rarely, I'll get one that will just blow me away. That was the other day. I had a request from a singer named Maggie Brown to add her to my page. I always check out their web page and read the bio there. It's a great story of her and her Mom and her start in the music business.
She has a self titled cd out now, which you can order through her web page. She is a former English teacher, now working as a bartender to help support herself between gigs. If there was justice in this world she would be able to live on her music and not have to find secondary jobs.
It's not very often that I find someone that I just click with and think their music is more than just a pleasant diversion. The last person I became this excited about was Shannon McNally. I think Maggie Brown is that good and definitely worth your time.
Go to her MySpace page (which for some reason it won't let me link to) and check out her music. You won't be disappointed.
