this is my blog and I'm here to give my two cents on anything that might seem important, but once in a while. I might sneak in something about me or some random thoughts. If things like that don't interest you, don't let me keep you.

Artist of the Week: Carolina Liar
Here's the deal, I know I'm running a little late, but dealing with other people's tax problems and going to parties that never happened, tend to mess things up a bit. Any who, originally I wanted to have this artist on a couple of weeks ago, but a certain awesome thing happened and mixed things up a bit. None the less, they are here now so lets get to know them. This band originated from Charleston, South Carolina where singer song writer Chad Wolf grew up. At the age of 22, he would move to Los Angeles where he would make ends meet by doing all sorts of odd jobs. Eventually, Chad would score and internship with song writer Diane Warren who would help him refine and sharpen his writing skills. While still writing songs, Chad continued doing what he could to keep a roof over his which included house sitting for a friend. Who would've guess that friend just happened to know famed Swedish record producer Max Martin. After playing a couple of songs for Max, Chad soon found himself in Sweden recording an album with some of Europe's best producers. Of course he needed a band, so he got an all-Swedish band of Jim Almgren Gandara (Guitar), Johan Carlsson (Keyboards), Rickard Goransson on (Guitar), Max Grahn (Drums), and Erik Haager (Bass). The band would go on to sign with Atlantic Records and then in May of this year, release their debut album Coming to Terms. The album has done pretty good thanks to it's two singles "I'm Not Over" and "Show Me What I'm Looking For." Recently, the band had both of these songs featured in an episode of 90210. The videos of which can be seen here and here. Not one of my favorite shows, but it's still nice to see them get some exposure. That being said, this week's artist is Carolina Liar with their new video Show Me What I'm Looking For, enjoy.
