Greetings,

In the latest issue of Perfect Sound Forever <http://www.furious.com/perfect/index0820.html>, you'll find (among other things):

PAUL SIEBEL
Not just folk music!
"Siebel was a New York City singer-songwriter who released those two albums, then left the music business. People who deeply love his work often call him 'a musician's musician,' and his songs have been covered by superlative singers with excellent taste
in material, prominently Linda Ronstadt, Bonnie Raitt, and Emmylou Harris. His fans consider it tragic that Siebel's not just underrated but unknown."

JUSTIN UTLEY
Interview- an out alt-country musician's odyssey
"An out, proud and outspoken (more on that later) gay man, Utley's musical and lyrical forte is very much rooted in classic singer/songwriter tropes – your McCartney's, Joel's and Elton's. Yet, not only are his songs shot through with a decidedly hard-
won social conscience, Utley displays such a willing curiosity for coloring outside established lines as to align his work with that of more adventurous pop practitioners."

We also have a Spotify playlist with most of the artists above here: <https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4dk9Z16JIptNxE8heESMWr?si=Jt41ItoXSKiy_sJyF4_FNQ>

We're always looking for good writers and/or ideas so let us know if you have anything to share.

See you online,
Jason
