Music heals. No really it does -- there is a new study just posted from the British Academy of Sound Therapy . Music takes 13 minutes to “release sadness’ and 9 minutes to “make you happy.’ Thank goodness for something so simple, one that we can control ourselves. I feel blessed that I get to play music on the radio, and that others can hear it and here's hoping it will make them feel good, too. Check out WMOT.org to hear the genre that we shine a light on at Music Fog.
Today’s video is from Heidi Newfield. I first met her in the band Trick Pony when they were getting signed to their major label deal. Heidi is a pistol. You gotta love a woman who blows harp, has a whiskey-soaked voice, and who swaggers on stage.
She has been working on new music, and her album. The Barfly Sessions, is forthcoming. From it, today’s Music Fog entry is “Wrong Side of the Bottle” filmed in a private session in Nashville.
