Dave Shecter<\/p><\/div>\n

I met Dave Shecter when he accompanied Jonathan Holbrook<\/a> on his featured artist interview last fall. Dave Shecter stars in Jonathan Holbrook\u2019s award-winning web series STILL<\/i><\/a>. In December, reached out for me to help him gain exposure and increase sales for his EP American Dream<\/i><\/a>. I listened to the four songs that comprise the EP and I became a fan of his music.<\/p>\n

Dave describes his music as \u201ca little bit country: upbeat country, modern day country, a foot-tapping kind of country. There\u2019s a little bit of pop and classic rock in some of my songs.\u201d Dave Shecter has a hard time fitting his music into a specific genre mold. Dave describes himself as \u201cone of those artists who\u2019s different. When you look at people like John Denver, Gordon Lightfoot and even Neil\u00a0 Diamond and you try to fit those guys into a certain genre, it\u2019s hard to do.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re excited because Dave Shecter gave Amused Now permission to distribute American Dream<\/i><\/a> on AmusedNow.com<\/a>. The EP is available at the top of the right side-bar and on the tab Buy Exclusive Music<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Dave Shecter is a self-taught musician with an ear for music. Dave\u2019s father plays the piano. Dave says he\u2019s a \u201clate bloomer\u201d and didn\u2019t start playing the guitar until high school. \u201cI started from there, writing a little bit of lyrics and music, and the next thing you know, twenty years later, finally putting out some songs.\u201d<\/p>\n

Growing up, Dave listened to a lot of rock-n-roll. John Denver<\/a> is one of his biggest songwriting influencers. \u201cI\u2019ve seen him many times in concert.\u201d He also listened to Jim Croce<\/a>, Gordon Lightfoot<\/a> and Neil Diamond<\/a>. You can definitely hear their effect on Dave\u2019s music.<\/p>\n

Dave wrote the music and the lyrics himself. He writes the music and melodies with the lyrics on acoustic guitar. He then goes into the studio and adds the rest of the band. He adds the vocals last. Pearl recorded the vocals on all four songs in American Dream<\/i><\/a>.<\/p>\n

\"Pearl

Pearl<\/p><\/div>\n

Dave met Pearl through her mother-in-law, who mentioned to Dave that Pearl was auditioning for American Idol<\/i> and that she had previously won the Filipino version of the show. Pearl met with Dave \u201cand she started singing some of her songs and I thought: You have a great voice! I played some of my songs, and it just went from there. We started recording together and the four-song LP is what we came up with.\u201d<\/p>\n

Because it\u2019s so much more compelling to buy music when you understand the back story, I asked Dave to describe the inspiration behind each of the four songs on American Dream<\/i><\/a>:<\/p>\n

American Dream<\/i>, the title track, describes Dave imagining what it would be like to be a musician on the road. \u201cI can see being on the road can get to you after a while, but when you hit that stage, you forget everything. All that excitement: the lights, the noise. It just pumps you full of energy again.\u201d<\/p>\n

I Think I\u2019m in Love<\/i> is about someone who has a hard time expressing their feelings, who has a hard time saying, \u201cI love you.\u201d The song is about a woman in a long-time relationship getting ready to leave her man, when he turns to her and says, \u201cHey, wait a minute. I have something to say. I think I\u2019m in love.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dave wrote Tulips<\/i> after visiting the Skagit Tulip Festival in Mt. Vernon, WA<\/a>. \u201cI went up there and I\u2019m walking around the tulip fields and I\u2019m thinking: Wow! How beautiful is this!\u201d<\/p>\n

Today is my Day<\/i> started out as a poem, written just weeks after Dave decided to quit drinking alcohol twelve years ago. \u201cI quit cold turkey.\u201d In 2010, he added music, although \u201cit\u2019s kind of an a cappella song. If you listen to the lyrics, it makes a lot of sense. Alcohol is known as my evil demon; that\u2019s where the song came from.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition to Amused Now and Facebook, Dave markets American Dream <\/i><\/a>through some fascinating websites. Dave is a member of SongCast<\/a>, an internet radio station. SongCast<\/a> circulates the four songs through their channels and they get played all over the world. \u201cIt\u2019s an interesting site, because you can see when and where your songs are being listened to. My songs are listened to in some countries that I didn\u2019t even realize had radios, so that\u2019s pretty exciting!\u201d Emerge Media<\/a> from the UK contacted Dave about his music. \u201cThey wanted to use my songs in businesses throughout England to play in places where you hear elevator music, like in doctors\u2019 offices.\u201d<\/p>\n

When I asked Dave about advice for other musicians, he stated emphatically, \u201cGo solo, if you can sing and write music. Being in a band is hard, even when it\u2019s just me and my singer. I\u2019ve gone through a couple of singers. It\u2019s very difficult to coordinate times and dates for rehearsals and recordings.\u201d<\/p>\n
