A Sensational Slow Baked Sunday for you!

SL Live Radio presents Slow Bake this afternoon at noon.  Join us in SL Live Radio's Studio A in Misty Falls for all the fun.

Your SL favorite musicians are featured in my two hour show every Sunday.  Kara's Korner is featured twice an hour, giving you the 'around the grid' review of what's going on and what's hot across SL this weekend (and upcoming).

Did I say - lots of music?  Yup, lots of music!  and Belinda is your host.  Of course, I'm the DJ, curator of my growing library of talented musicians, many of which are home-grown and native to our very own Second Life.  Many are also successful real life musicians, while the rest are on the rise in both worlds.  I have some classics from those on hiatus due to RL circumstances or busy music schedules. 

I also will share some tracks from the new Duran Duran LP's Paper Gods, debuted in SL last weekend. 

The point my library is approaching 1,000 songs.   Plenty to offer you diversity during our two hour show.

May I Listen? Yes, you Alex Mays!

Let's start with an introduction to blues by Amays (Alex Mays) and BLUE (Eddie Blue).  Alex is the front man/avatar in Second Life.  And both play together in Real Life like this - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RB-_FAZ1dzQ

You can catch Alex in the virtual world at all the popular venues, and then some. Now when artist rep. Sher Salmson says that a musician is talented, you can bet they are so.   I have known Sher nearly all my virtual life.    She has fairly much retired from music management, and is having fun with some other projects, including creating music machinima. 

There are some 'virtual' musicians who she is still ready to help, and among her favorites is Alex.    What are the characteristics of a "Sher" musician type?   Hard working avatar, dedicated to the music craft, songwriter/composer, charismatic and possessing oodles of audience rapport.   They must be committed to Second Life, and take it as seriously as anything else (yet not full of themselves).

So that would be Alex Mays and the company he keeps!   She has other favs, and if you know her, you will know them.   Just sayin' there's something special about this guy, originally from North Carolina, now Michigan-based.   

In Kalamazoo, Alex has teamed up as well with Eddie Blue for some amazing work.   Below are two renditions of All I Need -

Virtually Yours (posted May 15, 2015 YouTube by Sher)

All I Need is a sassy tune that speaks to nightlife at its core.  Listen and watch here for some serious acoustical R&B, funk, jazz between the duo on Reverbnation.    


Alex Mays' Solo Work

Check out Alex's solo music also on Reverberation
http://www.reverbnation.com/alexmays

His Americana tunes reflect Rock, Blues, Southern Rock and Jazz. 
Check him out also on YouTube.   So "Come Along Baby" and listen here.

Here's one that Sher produced/posted - Have Mercy!

And if that is not enough - here's Alex's LP "Americana Recordings"

Catch him in the real and virtual!

- Soni

P.S.  I play his music on SL Live Radio Sundays, noon to 2PM, as well as many other SL artists and boast now of a nearly 600 song playlist.
