Stay Tuned TV - James McMurtry - Episode 6

  / staytunedradio  

Welcome. My name is Shawn Henderson - host/producer/editor of the new television show - "Stay Tuned". As you can see, the show is a video representation of my actual radio show, which coincidentally also happens to be called "Stay Tuned".

If you are interested in hearing the actual radio show, it can be heard every Friday afternoon from 1:30pm to 5:00pm (EST) on WSCA 106.1 FM in Portsmouth, NH or streamed at http://wscafm.org

The goal of the radio show, and now the television show, is to bring awareness to the working and traveling musician. I've interviewed hundreds of fantastic musicians over the years and recently I started filming the in studio performance with the intention of creating this television show. Well, the day is finally here (after many false starts . . . of my own creation mostly).

This episode features the incredible talent of Austin based songwriter, James McMurtry.
I hope you enjoy it. I've been a huge fan of James' work since I first heard his debut album years ago. In my mind he is one of the best songwriters on the planet today. And I say that without any doubt whatsoever. His songs have an emotional impact unlike that of most other songwriters. His characters are well thought out and more often than not are presented in an "unpolished" way. Just like you, me and everyone we know - what you see on the surface of someone's character is not always what exists below, and James has a way of going deep and showing us the person that sometimes we don't even want to admit exists.

And please do not hesitate to leave feedback or comment on the show or the band.
