"Nobody Rides For Free" by Ron LaSalle
“On Nobody Rides for Free, Ron LaSalle goes down to the crossroads. Only instead of bargaining with the devil, he wrestles him and other personal demons—and emerges battered but triumphant, his soul intact and his spirit rocking for the ages. From gutbucket acoustic blues to sweet soul to Stones-worthy rhythm ‘n’ rock, LaSalle drives with style into the intersection of blues and rock giants. He proves he belongs in their company, then blows on down his own road.”
--Michael McCall, Nashville Scene
Ron LaSalle's CD "Nobody Rides For Free" is available for $12.97 at cdbaby.com. Ron's next CD and tour will be forthcoming in the summer of 2009.

"Patchwork"
Here's a grab bag of songs that are eminently singable and fun to play. They are truly a patchwork of moods, subjects and settings. The opening Patchwork, written by David Norris from the Chesapeake region of southern Maryland, is one of four Norris songs featured in this collection, along with Timberline, Time and Its Changes, and Our Old Home. Norris' imagery resonates beautifully with themes of rural living in our Allegheny highlands and stirs audiences anywhere.
All of this music is bursting forth in the shadow of a formidable ecological disaster, Mountaintop Removal, which is leveling the southern Appalachians for a few tons of coal and devastating our heaven-sent water supplies. Read More ...

This is all about a man who is still playing at the top of his game and if you find yourself bemoaning the state of 'music' and lack of real melodies and variety in the 21st century then THIS album is for YOU.

There’s nothing wrong with making money from your shows, and if you’re smart you’ll try to optimize that earning power. You don’t have to be a marketing genius or a public relations guru—just think outside the box and make the most of what you already have going for you. Read More ...

Top 10 Ways to get More People to your Next Gig
For an up-and-coming band every gig is a vital step toward your success. Your shows are where you get the chance to prove yourself. They are your opportunity to do what you do best. A good gig can also have a ripple effect, securing you a loyal fan base and ensuring good crowds at future shows. So when you land a gig, the key is to make it count. Hours of practice and rehearsal won’t matter unless you have a decent crowd that can go back and tell their friends how great you are. Your mission is not only to kick ass on stage—but to convince other people to come and see you. Sure, it would be nice to be able to just focus on your music and let someone else handle the promotions, but few unsigned bands have those kinds of resources. It’s up to you to get people in the door. Read More ...
