From high atop the Television 8 buidling, in the best location in the nation, on the shores of beautiful Lake Erie, it’s… Now This Sound Is Brave. And we’re not actually atop the Television 8 building.
NTSIB is a blog of music evangelism, spreading the good word from the North Coast. While not Ohio-centric, we do love our Ohio talent pool, from Bootsy Collins to Roger Troutman to Guided by Voices, the Afghan Whigs, the Black Keys on up to HotChaCha, mr. Gnome and Shivering Timbers. But it doesn’t have to be Ohio-born or bred to get us to praise it.
April is at the pulpit in Cleveland, with regular sermons from Jennifer in New York and an occassional hallelujah from Nate Burrell and others. And we all feel blessed that you’ve come to fellowship with us.
Rock the fuck on.
What a terrific blog! Found you today via yr James Leg interview and have already reposted a couple other links on FB. Hopefully we’ll see y’all at the Deep Blues Festival in Cleveland this July at the Beachland Ballroom.
Cheers,

Thanks so much, Rick! And, hell yes, looking forward to Deep Blues!
Wicked! Just got my tickets. Please hunt me down at the fest.
Cheers! Any hype you can give the fest would be hugely appreciated!

where art thou, finder of things?
Busy finding my own things, Dusty.
You girls are funny. Love the intent and philosophy of NTIS too. I’ll be following your posts to find new discoveries, and will be sure to submit artists to take chances with your musical tastebuds.
All the best!
James
