  • Feeling quite pleased as my song, Hashish To Ashes, was a semifinalist in the UK Songwriting Contest. Also, as a newcomer to the internet world, I’ve just hit 24000 downloads with the four songs we’ve uploaded in the past six months - and more to the point, made good friends with musicians in places I’d never heard of before!

    Keep up the good work, broadjam!

    Cheers, Jet

  • EVERY SO OFTEN WHEN A REVIEW LIKE THIS COMES ALONG OF WORK I HAVE COMPLETED, IT MAKES THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE WORTH IT!!!!
    PEACE,
    ROBERT WUAGNEUX
    First of all, thank you for sending me your new CD. I
    was captured by it! Your vocals are hard to compare to
    anyone else. My wife compaired some of your vocals to
    the band Boston. I am reminded of some artists that I
    feel could hit the high notes so clearly, namely
    Dennis DeYoung, Freddie Mercury and I can’t think of
    many more ’cause few could do it. The lyrics grab a
    hold of you and don’t let go till the end. I’ll listen
    to a song and feel like falling in love with the first
    happy person that I meet on the street. So much
    feeling in those love songs. Not to slight George any,
    but I wonder what would have been if you could have
    written songs with Lennon and McCartney. WOW!!! You
    have such a powerful voice and a strong writing
    ability. I am putting your music up on Rocket 88 so
    that others can capture the good vibes that you put
    out in your music. A heartfelt Thanks to you, Robert,
    for putting these feelings to music. U are 1 in a
    million! Tom Reed @ Rocket 88 FM

  • With a flair for versatility and a skill of diversity E. J. Dease, is a singer who can perform with anyone. At sixteen, she won the National Junior Star Search competition. She has performed with legendary talents such as Prince, Belinda Carlisle, David Cassidy and Savage Garden. Now, E.J. Dease is breaking out with her style of country music, releasing her first single “I know” nationwide on OneWest Music.

    In 2002, Chuck Murphy, CEO of OneWest Music, began working with E.J. Dease to create a new sound for E. J. that would be a blend of both pop and traditional country. Co-writing and producing her debut country CD was no small feat given the history of producers she had worked with in the past. Murphy enlisted Jeff Silverman as a co-producer on half of this 13-song CD which ensured a unique and dynamic country music sound that is sure to impress even the youngest of country fans.

    With vocals which resonate like Martina McBride and Reba McIntyre “Light That Shines” the new release by E.J. Dease will connects with a larger teenage audience, which has been long desired by Music Row in Nashville.

    “I Know” opens up the CD up-tempo note setting the bar for energy and emotion. The song is about a person who is wising they could get the love back in a tired relationship and it lets the listener experience that the vocals are the emphasis of E J Dease. The track is co-written by Chuck Murphy, Jeff Silverman and Debra Lyn.

    “Lost and Found” was co-written by Chuck Murphy and E.J. Dease. A hidden giant, this track is about a woman that has been hearing the same thing from the same guy too long. The track has all the elements: harmonic vocals, slide guitar, delicate fiddle background and driving instrumentation to make “Lost and Found” the centerpiece of the CD.

    “Light That Shines.” This track is the most “country sounding” and up-beat track on the CD. This track, which is about having a higher power to help you find your way through the darker times in life is the uplifting namesake of the CD and is powerful enough for radio airplay. This song was co-written by Chuck Murphy and David Gonzalez

    “Forgive Me” is a beautiful, heartfelt country ballad that talks about the love found and then lost. E.J. Dease sings this song with strength and love that we can all understand, relate to and connect. Her graceful vocals and lush harmonies ease the pain when she talks about what love failed to bring. This track is written by Chuck Murphy

    “How Many Times” cleverly delves into descriptions of the intangibility of love. Dease sings, “It’s like the rain that falls at night. You know it’s there, just out of sight. The wind will blow it through the trees. You know it’s wet, you know it’s real”. The lines explore love’s elusiveness, while contending that love is indeed a definite, and sometimes, the only way to find it again is to leave behind a relationship that offers everything but. This track is written by Chuck Murphy
