John Young - New Song coming soon!

 
 
Anxietea's John Young sent in another great original song he wrote. I look forward to sharing that one here in the next couple of days. I can't begin to tell you how great it is to hear John Young playing music still. I'm sure anybody who has ever known John will same the same as me. Great Friend and a great talent! 
 
I hope John will be sharing more songs with us soon.

Here's Kim Calvert before his rock star days with Black Sunrise. Here's Kim's 9th grade year book photo from Anaheim's Brookhust Jr. High School.  Kim was a year ahead of me at Brookhurst. Check out Kim's great comments on a few of the Black Sunrise posts.  He mentions his mother coming up with the Black Sunrise name. I never knew that one. I do remember Kim's Mother very fondly. I remember going to Kim's house for after parties  and Kim's Mom was so kind to everybody. I think actually the very last Black Sunrise show they ever played we had a after party there. I could be wrong. Hopefully we will hear alot more from Kim soon.

Here's a very good Demo I received from John Young the other day. Nashville could use John's songwriting talents in a big way. I'm really hoping John sends more in so we can have a listen in the near future. Here's part of the note John sent me with the song
 
 
"I'm sending you a demo called RIGHT WHERE SHE LEFT ME copyright 2008 john Darrell young. a country song I wrote a few years ago ,cut at my home studio. everything on this track is me."
 
Great to hear from our friend John!!! 
 
You'd think someone in Nashville would be smart enough to snap him up.
 "John sit back and write us more hit songs."

Here is my new roomate's band American Lit playing a original song "Stomach Ache". Dan is on the drums. They played their first show last Thursday. Hopefully we will see more from them soon.
Below here is a song I recomend they learn & play by Green Day called "Warning".   I think it would be a good little tune to play with the rest of their original songs
