2004 DETROIT MUSIC AWARDS: OUTSTANDING ROCK/POP RECORDING OUTSTANDING URBAN/FUNK
HIP-HOP RECORDING . She has a magnetic spiritual enthusiasm and a voice that positively radiates. Sista Otis and the Wholly Rollers are part of Detroit's Urban Folk movement. A style which draws on the city's eclectic Motown, hip hop R& B & funk -rock heritage. And they can rock! And she can sing, and the drummers can drum and their new CD is called “Worldwide Release.” If You are a club owner lucky enough to have these folks play, for God's sake get your sound system in good enough shape to handle a real rock n roll band, cause these folks deserve to be heard clearly.

You can link up from wherever You are & listen to WUTC 88.1 FM Chattannooga, Tennessee. There's lots of N.P.R. programming here. WDVX, one of the last fortresses of Real Country music. Not the artificial diesel smoke flavored generic commercialism that's being pumped out of Nashville. & the “Live 365″ online broadcast by “RadioMike” out of New York City. It is well worth jumping through the hoops to sign up and listen to his unbroken playlist, which includes a lot of new artists I've never heard of with old traditionals mixed in. Once I figure out a fair way to judge which radio Stations deserve the accolades inherent in being included in ArtFRONT's Music Section I will set up a page which lists all of the best, most innovative, influential, groundbreaking, whatever….stations that people send me evidence of as being worthy.

If You are a fan of straightforward & melodious female acoustic singer songwriters with pretty voices and interesting lyrics, these girls should be playing on your CD early in the morning or late at night, or whenever you want to enjoy relaxing music that also makes You think about life a bit. Jennifer Daniels has a following in the Southeast, Audra Kubat has a following in Detroit and Jane Weaver is a classic heart-throb in Manchester England, While Tift Merritt brings beauty back into female country vocals.

***Featured in “The Listening Room.”***
I'm feeling the star presence shine. Maybe if Nick Drake came back as a girl, with all new material, sonically influenced by experiences in the great beyond? The snippets I caught of Jane Weaver's songs from her last CD titled “Like an Aspen Leaf” on WUTC FM were enough to send me on a search for as much of her music as I could find.
She is also the front vocalist and main songwriter for a band called “Misty Dixon.”
