I met Deb when she was performing in the duo Cavanaugh and Kavanaugh at the RPI Community and Cultural Center. It was an eclectic music event, and I was drawn to Deb’s easy-going vibe. We later grew closer when my son participated in her family friendly Music Together classes. Over the years, I’ve enjoyed seeing […]
I was taken by the beautiful, rich tone of Christine Bilé’s voice, effortless guitarwork and introspective lyrics. Her recorded work goes even further, highlighting layered vocals, ringing harmonies and rhythms that groove. I need to know more about where her creative inspiration comes from. RRX: For your latest single, “At Least I know I’m Free” […]
RRX: Your intrepid reporter, Niki Kaos, turned the interview format on its ear! Ky McClinton and Matty D, from the podcast Ky and I, hosted a roundtable interview. Like a songwriter’s circle, but with talking, not singing. Prince Reed produced the session, and we relaxed into the cozy atmosphere of Matty D’s Van Schaick Island […]

I confess I had not yet heard about the most delightfully talented and genuine Carsie Blanton and her Handsome Band until her brilliant Facebook campaign hit my computer. (Yes, I’m FB old in social media years) I was intrigued by her live video performances and her promise of solidarity and swearing! I reached out to […]
I met Reggy Steel at the popular Rustic Barn open mic, and he caught my attention immediately with his confidence – a true artist. High-quality lyrics over well produced tracks, the heart of the crowd was captured, and everyone was grooving. Since I’m not afraid of talking to strangers, I caught him out on the […]
It’s been several years since I met Kelly and Keri Kintner in Mechanicville, NY. I was immediately impressed by their love of music. Especially their love of records, and what goes into producing a great recording. As a fan of original music from up-and-comers I knew I had to reach out to find out what […]

While owning and managing The Studio in Greenfield Center, her work has provided an environment for musicians to thrive just outside of Saratoga Springs. She is a mom who juggles it all. And she is a writer and performer who is […]
