I just had a message that they are playing my Band-in-a-Box cover of Bob Marley's "Is this Love" on SAfm on Friday evening (SAfm is one of our premier radio stations) AND they want to do a live phone interview! They have said they will call me around 21:30 SA time which is 19:30 GMT and 14:30 USA central. I don't know what questions they will ask me but if they ask me anything about my production BIAB is sure to get a mention.
Great news Joanne. They picked a wonderful cover. It's a top notch arrangement, mix and production. Your version of "Is this Love" is worthy and capable to be played on mainstream radio. The quality is there. Have fun with the interview.
This is great news but it does not surprise me that they want to interview you. I think your songs sound like they were recorded in a professional studio.
When you are at the checkout line and they ask if you found everything say "Why, are you hiding stuff?"
64 bit Win 10 Pro, the latest BiaB/RB, Roland Octa-Capture audio interface, a ton of software/hardware
Several DJs want to telephone interview you but the time differences are difficult to schedule. Maybe Noel or Sid could sort that out.
I'm not at all surprised to see your musical journey taking root and blossoming out. You have worked hard and "paid your dues". You have earned the love of everyone who knows you and your wonderfully huge warm heart.
Dave, Charlie, Bob, Mario, Kevin (where you been Emmrich), Don, Bob (Notes), John, Steve, Noel, Herb, Peter, Jim, Caaron and Hugh.
Thanks so much. I appreciate the support.
It really was very unexpected. I think that Cover in the Week must be approaching the radio stations because the DJ who contacted me said this was his third week of presenting a Cover in a Week song and he said that "since I was a local he wanted to do a phone interview". There does seem to be a South African connection, though, with the Cover in a Week record label "Split Sounds".
They have just sent a sneak peak preview email with their next challenge and I would love to see some other BIAB folks joining in. I think it is a song that we can try and get some "modern sounding covers" made. I will post details in a separate thread.
Herb, no that was BIAB actually playing the uke on the recording (and the guitar for that matter). Those PG musicians play much better than I can ever hope to.
Windows 10 (64bit) M-Audio Fast Track Pro, Band in a Box 2025, Cubase 14, Cakewalk and far too many VST plugins that I probably don't need or will ever use

If they would send her the questions, she could record her answers, send them the file, and they could edit the interviewer asking the questions into it.
