Featured Guests Include:
Victoria White – Singer Songwriter
Singer-songwriter Victoria White will be joining us to talk about her debut album ‘The Upside’ which is set for release on May 16^th, and was produced by famed longtime ‘Earth, Wind & Fire’ guitarist Sheldon Reynolds, and signed to legendary EWF Founder Maurice White’s Kalimba Music label. The singer’s poetic, easy grooving first single “Can’t Buy Love” has just been released to smooth jazz and adult contemporary radio outlets. White composed every song on the album by herself with the exception of the ambient, acoustic guitar driven “Forgiven,” a co-write with Reynolds. The track “Keep On Going” features the beautiful piano of one of smooth jazz’s most acclaimed performers, keyboardist Brian Culbertson.

Victoria Chick – Artist in Silver City, New Mexico
Artist Victoria Chick will be joining us to discuss her art career, and to tell us about the flourishing art scene in Silver City, New Mexico. Victoria works in various mediums including acrylic paint on canvas; and creates original, hand-pulled prints such as one-of-a-kind monotypes; and does drypoint, an intaglio technique with the linear qualities of drawing. Victoria Chick is known for her use of the cat image to express the human condition, and for that reason, the body language and the relationship of the cat to other images in the picture plane is what interests her. But her imagery is not limited to felines. Another influence on Chick’s work was her experience as a registered art therapist in Kansas City. For more about Victoria Chick – Click Here.  

Michael Chain – Musician, Song & Screenwriter
When it comes to song writing, the story's the thing, and Michael Chain tells one with the best of them. Chain has been a top music and screenwriter for years (major artists record his tunes, and his shows have been EMMY nominated).  And the man can sing.  A quick listen to any cut on Chain's new CD ‘Loud and Proud’ makes that clear. The first cut released from the album "Do You Wanna Do It?" hit #1 on the Hot AC Indie Charts. Chain performs with a cast who have played with George Harrison, Steely Dan, the Rolling Stones, Ring Starr, Joe Cocker, Elton John, Billy Joel, Tom Waits, Bob Seger, Eric Clapton, Dylan, Waylon, Faith, Tina, Shania, and more! Chain knows his way around a recording studio, but concerts are where his heart is. From hell holes the Hollywood Bowl he has shared the stage with everybody from Led Zeppelin to Louis Armstrong. B.J. Thomas, Vicki Laurence, Lee Roy Van Dyke, the Knack, Eric Andersen, Wayne Newton, the Mills Brothers, Manuela Torres and John Davidson, to name a few, have cut Michael's tunes and his script credits range from Punky Brewster and Police Academy to Rambo and Chuck Norris.  You've heard Chain's voice as the Transformers, the Chicken McNuggets, and on hundreds of TV and radio spots. This should be one heck of an interview – heck, Sinatra gave the boy his first singing job, Bob Dylan encouraged him to pursue a recording career, and Buck Owens told him "cut your damn hair!".
