AM/FM radio is the ONLY platform that pays artists nothing. Apple, Spotify, Pandora, Sirius/XM, and others all do pay performers for their music. Glad that Congress is paying attention to this issue today. #MusicFairness #AMFA #BigRadio

"[@PersianLeaps] has left...one singularly majestic slice of rock 'n' roll intact, rather aligning those irresistible jagged edges and manipulative #jangle hued attributes to #poprock euphony" 'Jeane' by #TheSmiths reimagined, per @RingMasterRevue ~ tinyurl.com/persian-leaps-ri…
