Sofia Talvik – US Tour

On tour!

I’ve just arrived in Hawaii to do my first gigs! The weather here is awesome and as the sun thirsting Swede I am I have already got a little sunburnt. It’s been almost 7 months since I saw any sun so who can blame me.

I’m really looking forward to all the gigs that we have lined up, a little sad that we’ll only be in San Francisco one day as that is one of my favorite cities and there’s so much there that I’d love to show the guys in the band. I’m thinking I have to at least take them down for a clam chowder at the Warf.

I’m also really looking forward to coming to San Diego (buy tickets here!) where I’ll be playing at Acoustic Music San Diego. When my latest album “Jonestown“; was released in the US last year I was interviewed by “The Jonestown Report” which has its officie in San Diego. After the interview was published a former member and survivor of People’s Temple and the Jonestown tragedy contacted me personally, which you can imagine was quite overwhelming but also one of the sweetest and most heartfelt feedbacks I’ve ever had to my music.

You can read the interview here.

Site Update

Filed under: News/Updates — Tags: , , — Mark Pipkin @ 12:42 pm

I have updated the Twitter updates for post. This post will be the first test to make sure that everything is working correctly. So now when artist make a post on the blog, it should also feed to Twitter @ASMW.

The Uber Tracker Pingbacks to Twitter were also not working. They should be working as well. I will be making a post over on Mouse Clone to make sure that those get updated to Twitter as well and we will see how it goes from there.

Other than getting the Twitter feeds fixed up, I have not been that busy with the site. I don’t have any artist lined up for Featured Artist. I’m not sure if I scare them off or not. Maybe I need to work with some of the Amie Street people and see if there is away to get more artist featured though the site. Not really sure how that will work out though, will just have to see.

In the mean time, if you like an artist on Amie Street, and would like to see them featured here. Please drop a comment or send a tweet.

**Edit: did some really quick edits to Twitter updates and wanted to test. Sorry for the spam.

Happy New Year

Filed under: News/Updates — Tags: , — Mark Pipkin @ 2:17 pm

Is it a little late to wish everyone a happy new year? It is, after all, 12 days old now. Even it if is, Happy New Year anyway.

ASMW hasn’t been really busy lately. As there is only a single person that runs the site, me, things tend to get busy and I can’t keep up with everything all of the time. Sometimes things get a little slack. It just so happens that ASMW was one of the things that I got a little slack on.

I have been having a hard time communicating with Artist as well. I think that they are afraid that I’m going to resell their email address or something. Maybe they just ran out of time to make a post for ASMW and its readers. Not sure, but I’m going to work on getting more artist featured this year. I do enjoy reading the stories behind the people that make the music.

Anyone willing/wanting to help out please let me know. You can contact me by leaving a comment and i will get your email from there and we will be able to start a dialog to see what we can do more to make ASMW better for all.

If you have comments, questions or anything else, just leave a comment below. ASMW looks forward to another year helping people find new artist on Amie Street.
