Welcome to Music Spotlight

I'm Stephen Tetsu, the founder and proprietor of this (hopefully) fine establishment.

I'm sure you have a few questions about what exactly Music Spotlight is, so let me try to answer them for you:

What is Music Spotlight? 
Music Spotlight is an Artist interview/sample podcast that focuses on musicians who are damn good at making things (i.e. amazing music) for us to listen to. The purpose of this show is to give casual listeners a taste of who this band or musician is, what they sound like, and how they can get more of that sweet sweet ear cocaine these just heard.

What do you mean ear cocaine?
Our show is optimally formatted (I can use big words) to give the listener an addictive dose of both your music and you yourself through a short interview sandwiched between your two awesome songs.  I will play anything (AND I DO MEAN ANYTHING) that you guys submit as long as its not a rip-off of another song (I'm looking at you Coldplay) and you allow me to play it.  Artists, if you don't want to be interviewed, you can just submit the songs you want me to play if you would like.  The free promotion of your music never hurts, am I right?


How do I get on the show?
Getting your band or music on the show is as easy as tying your shoes (no offense to those readers out there who are incapable of tying their shoes).  All you have to do is e-mail the show with the two songs you feel best describe your band, the name of your band (duh!), who you are, how I can contact you, and not be a total dingus (which is simple enough if you aren't).  You can e-mail the show at musicspotlite@gmail.com for now.

So what are you waiting for?!  Musicians, get those songs ready and submit them to the show.  If you don't want to do an interview, I can just play your songs in a digest-style show.  Listeners, get listening and tell all of your friends!

-See ya around one way or the other!
