The following is our lineup for the Concert:

4:45-6:45 PM EST

Singer-songwriter-guitarist Ricky Byrd’s new CD which he describes as “one part acoustic soul, one part rock n roll” -marks quite a departure from his days with Joan Jett and the Blackhearts. Byrd is still rail-thin, still has the haystack of hair and a truckload of attitude, but maturity has served to deepen and expand his talent. Byrd says that the work on his latest project with producer Ray Kennedy “is a natural progression. I went back to the college of musical knowledge, listening to the songs that still, to this day, raise the hair on my arms. Digging deep, trying to find the secret ingredient, studying the craft of songwriting. Now I feel like I’ve got a pretty cool batch of my own songs and I’m ready to show them to the world.”

Billboard described Byrd’s last effort, a limited edition live CD called, with typical Byrd-esque humor, “Tough Room This World”: For many, Ricky Byrd needs no introduction. For others, a brief step back in time may be needed. After…Byrd parted ways with the Blackhearts (he) found himself collaborating with the likes of Roger Daltrey (and) Ian Hunter.

Apparently, others discovered what Jett had known all along: Byrd is one accomplished musician, singer and songwriter.” In fact, Jett and Daltrey (on his solo release “Rocks In The Head”) are among the many artists who have cut covers of Byrd’s material he’s had over 45 of his songs recorded by others — and his music has also been featured on television and in films.

Download Ricky Byrd’s new single “Broken Is A Place” to a CD and bring it with you to the The Memorial Day Weekend Free Concert Saturday May 28, 2011. Ricky will signing the downloaded CD’s at 6:30 PM EST.

Supa co-wrote most of the songs on Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora’s second solo album Undiscovered Soul.

May 22, 2011 Artist of the Day – Ricky Byrd

by on May.22, 2011, under Home

Click To Join The Ricky Byrd Facebook Fan Page

Rockers In Recovery Host John Hollis said during his interview with Ricky Byrd “Folks I just listened to the mastered version of the song it went right to the heart and had us all in tears. “Broken Is A Place” will touch many people and help many people find a new way of life”.

Broken Is A Place”- the new song written by Ricky Byrd/Richie Supa ,Co produced by Ricky Byrd/Bob Stander, Drums: Shawn Murray, Bass: Bob Stander, Guitars: Ricky Byrd Vocals: Ricky Byrd, Keyboards: Richie Supa, Mixed: Bob Stander, Mastered: Ray Kennedy in Nashville.

Broken Is A Place” is a must for any download collection. Ricky went to a place only one who has been there can write about and though this song can let others know change is possible.

Ricky Byrd Bio:

Lotta dues Jim, Lotta dues

That’s a line from a play about Lenny Bruce, and man oh man ain’t that the truth!!

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining! I’ve had an unbelievable career so far and I’m very grateful.

Imagine a 13 year old sitting in his bedroom with his first guitar that “almost” stays in tune. He’s dreaming big dreams, hoping someday……you know the rest!

Well I got my wish. I’ve traveled the world with Joan Jett and The Blackhearts, had a couple of hit records and played guitar for two of my favorites–Roger Daltrey and Ian Hunter. I’ve also had the damn good fortune to have shared a stage with everyone from Jimmy Page, Leslie West, Steve Marriott to Rufus Thomas (I got to “Walk the Dog”)

I’ve had artists who I love and respect cover songs I’ve written ,and even got to decorate a wall in Byrdland with a few gold and platinum records.

Nice huh?

Problem is I’m not the kind that can rest on my laurels (you know how painful that can be!).

This is now and now I’m a solo artist–playing my songs, making my music and fighting my battles!

To be honest I’m feeling a little punchy from all the fighting.

But I promise you this…they’’ll have to carry me out of the ring still swingin’ and still singin’.

Let’s face it the music business (what’s left of it) is not for the faint of heart. it can break your spirit and leave you bitter.”It was you Charlie…you shoulda watched out for me. I coulda been a contender!”

Sorry, I had a Brando moment!.

Anyway as the saying goes… you buttered your bread now you gotta sleep in it…or something like that.

Where was I? Oh yeah

These days I have no illusions or expectations other than making the coolest music I can and have fun doing it.

So keep your eyes and ears open cause sooner or later I’ll be coming to your town. It might be a stadium,a theatre,a club or maybe even a coffeehouse, but you can bet the farm I’ll have a big ass grin on my face and be happy to be there.

See you in the trenches, Ricky

That is what we are all about…finding the silence that is already there, hearing God’s voice to be inspired to be the best version of ourselves. We embrace all walks of people who want to continue their Spiritual Journey. On the following pages you will find tools and gentle reminders to aid you, whether you are in a Twelve Step program of Recovery, have a loss of a loved one or want to give appreciation to someone who has touched your life.

We encourage you to become a part of our Community, to expand the awareness that we are not alone, and to help find peace within ourselves and in the world.

Just like life ….our site is constantly changing and growing, we would love to hear your “positive” feedback.

ABOUT ROBERT E. GLUCK

With over twenty years of practicing as a Florida personal injury Attorney, Mr. Gluck has litigated and/or settled thousands of personal injury cases, including automobile accidents, slip and falls, construction accidents, boating accidents and every other type of case imaginable, obtaining millions of dollars from insurance companies throughout the United States. Do not leave your future to chance, let your Florida personal injury attorney Robert E. Gluck, P.A. and his team of personal injury professionals help you find the answers you need to make informed decisions, which could have a lasting impact on your future.

Experience

Upon graduating from the University of South Florida with Honors, with an Undergraduate Degree in Political Science, Mr. Gluck, attended the University of Miami School of Law, during which time clerked for Janet Reno, who was the State Attorney in Dade County, Florida at the time. Mr. Gluck received his Juris Doctorate Degree in 1989 and graduated Cum Laude (top 10% of his class). Mr. Gluck also was the Associate Editor of the Entertainment and Sports Law Review and was the school mock trial champion and represented the University of Miami in the National Mock Trial Competition, which he came in second place, nationally. Upon being admitted to the Florida Bar, Mr. Gluck began his law career as an Assistant State Attorney for Janet Reno, prosecuting complex criminal cases. While an Assistant State Attorney for Janet Reno, Mr. Gluck learned much about the complexities of practicing law and he remains grateful for that experience. During his tenure over the next several years, Mr. Gluck worked for Friedman and Associates, P.A., a large Florida personal injury firm in North Miami. During his tenure with the firm however, Mr. Gluck discovered that such a large organization often falls short when it comes to providing service to its’ clients on a personal level. Therefore, in 1998, he made the decision to start his own personal injury practice and founded Robert E. Gluck, P.A.

Over the years Mr. Gluck has built his practice on the belief that personal injury victims need a Florida lawyer who is aggressive, determined and accessible. His philosophy, along with his sterling reputation with defense attorneys and insurance adjusters, has given his firm the edge in obtaining large settlements or verdicts. Through memberships in the Academy of Trial Lawyers and the Florida Bar he is connected to a wealth of knowledge and is in touch with Court decisions as they occur.

If you have a case that falls outside his area of expertise, Mr. Gluck will provide quality referrals and work with those lawyers to insure that you receive the same kind of quality service clients have come to expect from Robert E. Gluck, P.A. He likes to refer to his firm as “home base”, where clients can contact him at any time regarding any legal matter. He will evaluate your situation and, if he cannot assist you, he will bring in other lawyers for the appropriate legal representation.

A Place to Find Answers to Difficult Questions, No Matter What Question You May Have

Mr. Gluck understands that finding a Florida personal injury attorney can sometimes be a bit overwhelming – even intimidating. That is why he prefers to think of his personal injury law firm as the sort of place where people can find the personal attention and one-on-one atmosphere that they would expect from a close friend or member of their own family.

Mr. Gluck also understands that personal injury law is very complex, involving tough decisions that carry lasting consequences. He listens to your concerns, provides the guidance that you need to navigate the intricate maze of “what ifs” and helps you find the answers to difficult questions.

Looking at Both Sides

Mr. Gluck has built his practice into one of the most successful in South Florida, in part by looking at each individual case from both sides of the fence. In particular, his knowledge of the insurance industry helps him anticipate and respond to issues in a proactive manner, saving precious time while maximizing resources on behalf of his clients. To that end, the Law Firm of Robert E. Gluck, P.A. has assembled a team of professionals that includes seasoned paralegals with a combined experience in excess of 50 years.

With this dynamic team in place, nothing is left to chance and important issues are given the sort of attention needed to insure a successful outcome on his clients’ behalf.

Call Robert E. Gluck Before You Make Important Decisions

Give him a call before you speak to the insurance company. The call is free and so is the initial consultation. In fact, Mr. Gluck works strictly on a contingency basis, meaning he does not get paid unless your case is settled or a judgment is obtained in a Court of Law. You will incur no out-of-pocket expenses, whether you win or lose the case. If you need a doctor and do not know who to see for the type of injury you have suffered, Mr. Gluck will suggest physicians who will bill your insurance company or obtain payment at the conclusion of your case.

Do not rely on the advice of non-professionals without legal experience. Your “Uncle Harry” may have your best interest at heart, yet your future is much too important to leave in the hands of someone other than a qualified legal professional. Each case is different and therefore comparisons by friends and family will only complicate matters and leave your frustrated.

Transportation can be provided to and from Mr. Gluck’s office at no charge and consultations can be arranged in your home or hospital room, if you cannot make it to the office.

Mr. Gluck has recently purchased an office condominium and the Firm has moved its’ primary offices to the Medical, Arts Professional Building at 333 N.W. 70th Avenue, just around the corner from Plantation City Hall. This location is easily accessible from I-75, I-595, I-95 and the Florida Turnpike. Mr. Gluck is also available for consultation in Miami, Dade and Palm.

May 21, 2011 Artist of the Day Christine Ohlman

by on May.21, 2011, under Home


ABOUT THE DEEP END

Christine Ohlman


Read The Reviews!

NOW AVAILABLE!

The new studio album from
Christine Ohlman
&
Rebel Montez

Digital: iTunes || Amazon
Physical: Amazon || Best Buy
Barnes & Noble

Horizon Music Group
|| IndieGate

“There are so many ‘wow’ moments” – Dave Marsh, SIRIUS/XM Radio personality / Rolling Stone editor emeritus

“Whatever she touches becomes soulful and passionate.” – Hal Horowitz, The All Music Guide

“Ohlman and Rebel Montez concoct a Soul atmosphere as thick and palpable as a humid Southern night. Ohlman’s stunning originals…blister and soothe in equal measure.” – Brian Baker, Cincinnati CityBeat

The heart of Christine Ohlman has belonged to rock n’ roll from just about the moment she could walk and talk. By the time she traveled from Boston to New York on an overnight train to make her first record at the age of 16, writing the “B” side on the way to the studio, she was already a veteran of the local coffeehouse circuit around New Haven, Connecticut. “The first guy who ever signed me flew down from New York City to hear the band; he signed us the same day,” she says. “We were in the studio practically before we knew what hit us recording a version of Al Kooper’s ‘Wake Me, Shake Me.’ The next thing we knew, we were on the charts and I was in heaven!”

Christine Ohlman

While touring and recording with Christine Ohlman & Rebel Montez are the main focus, Ohlman has other all-star concert appearances to her credit, including the Lincoln Center “American Songbook” Series (with Sting and Lou Reed), the 2009 Obama Inaugural Gala, and Celebrate Brooklyn’s Tribute to Bill Withers (with Nona Hendryx and My Morning Jacket’s Jim James). She continues to perform with the SNL Band, appearing with Al Green on the show’s 25th Anniversary Special and in the hilarious 2010 commercial parody “Carter n’ Sons Barbeque.” She is a sought-after studio guest vocalist, appearing on Ian Hunter’s Shrunken Heads (named one the Top 20 CDs of 2007 by the New York Daily News), Big Al Anderson’s Pawn Shop Guitars, and two CDs by esteemed Irish punk group Black 47. Labor of Love: The Music Of Nick Lowe features her vocal collaboration with Marshall Crenshaw on Lowe’s “Cruel To Be Kind.” And her commitment to the blues runs deep, as her scorching duets with the legendary Eddie Kirkland on his CD’s Where You Get Your Sugar and Lonely Street; her guest-shots with Charlie Musselwhite on his Grammy-nominated One Night In America; and her appearance on the Songs Of Willie Dixon (with Sonny Landreth & Clarence “Gatemouth” Brown) and Grammy nominee A Tribute To Howlin’ Wolf (with Taj Mahal & Lucinda Williams) give statement.

Dedication to preserving the soul in rock n’ roll has been the hallmark of Christine’s work from the days of The Scratch Band through a stint with Christine Ohlman and The Soul Rockers to her present band Christine Ohlman & Rebel Montez’ (Cliff Goodwin-guitars, Michael Colbath-bass, Larry Donahue-drums; original guitarist Eric Fletcher passed away in May, 2006). Her earliest idols were Etta James, Ray Charles, and Jackie Wilson. “My mom taught me to love those artists,” says Christine. “When she was growing up she used to frequent Cafe Society in New York City to hear Billie Holiday, Count Basie, Lena Horne. I just naturally picked up on blues and jazz through her. Then of course there was Elvis, and Jerry Lee, and the artists on Stax and Atlantic. At some point I also began to listen heavily to Muddy Waters, Howlin’ Wolf, John Lee Hooker, Elmore James. So my songwriting reflects influences old and new. I always tend to lean toward wild guitar bands—you know, the ‘crazies’.” (Ohlman continues this fascination with musical tradition via her work as a music writer and musicologist. She was an original editor of the All-Music Guide, edited legendary producer Andrew Loog Oldham’s 2002 autobiography 2Stoned, and is a cover-story-writing contributor to Elmore Magazine)

Ohlman has released six CDs with Rebel Montez. The Hard Way, Radio Queen, Wicked Time, Strip, and 2008 career retrospective Re-Hive are joined by 2010’s The Deep End, her first CD of new material in five years. Co-produced gby Andy York (John Mellencamp), it featuresduets with Ian Hunter, Dion DiMucci, and Marshall Crenshaw and guest shots by Levon Helm, Big Al Anderson, G.E. Smith, Eric “Roscoe” Ambel, and others.

No stranger to tragedy, Ohlman suffered, in addition to the loss of longtime musical collaborator Fletcher, the death in 2005 of her mate and producer of more than 25 years, Doc Cavalier. Re-Hive is dedicated to his memory (as The Deep End is to Fletcher’s. .Following Cavalier’s passing, she produced a memorial concert at legendary rock club Toad’s Place in New Haven, Connecticut that featured 26 acts and nearly 100 musicians pivotal to the professional life she shared with him. “This is a time of reordering in my life,” she said recently. “There are no words to describe the empty spaces left by these losses. I feel I honor the memory of Doc and Eric by creating, by writing, and by performing. It hasn’t been easy by any means. But friends and fellow musicians have been extraordinary in their generosity and support. Michael Colbath, Larry Donahue, Cliff Goodwin and I look forward to the next record and to future collaborations.” Ohlman says, “The songs on The Deep End deal, in some ways, with the subject of loss, but much more importantly with the ways that love intersects with life to bring a kind of joy into one’s heart that is sometimes bittersweet.”

With her trademark mile-high platinum beehive hairdo and enviable collection of sequins and rhinestones, Ohlman looks like a lady to be reckoned with, and when she opens her mouth to sing, the truth comes out. But underneath it all lurks a no-frills approach to music. In her own words—”I give it to an audience straight, which is the way I like it myself. Yes, I like to shout, and I like to croon, and I love to wail. I just need to get in the groove and rock—not think too much about it– tear it up or soothe it over. I’ve loved rock n’ roll since I was a little girl, and I’ll love it forever. It’s my greatest kick and my greatest privilege to be able to get up on a stage and rip it apart. That’s rock n’ roll to me. I’m here to set your soul on fire.”
