(PRWEB) April 5, 2006 -- Popular mvyradio.com (WMVY) has unveiled one of the Web’s largest and most interesting music-related archives sections, with the addition today of more than 160 wide-ranging interviews and live performances. Among the new offerings are exclusive recordings from Elvis Costello, The Wallflowers, Amos Lee, John Mayer, Carly Simon, Richard Thompson and Bruce Hornsby. Additionally, the station will begin a month-long concert series featuring some of the artists’ performances, April 6.
This expansion arrives just a year after the station began its “mvyradio On the Road” series, one of the more robust recording expeditions of any radio station, traveling to Canada, Philadelphia, Newport, Texas, North Carolina, Tennessee and Kentucky to interview and record musical talent from a variety of genres including Rock, Folk, Bluegrass and Blues. Among the venues and festivals that mvyradio took part in were SXSW, MerleFest, the Newport Folk Festival and Canadian Music Week, events known for their groundbreaking music experiences.
While most of the recordings are a combination of interview and performance, many have a uniqueness in that they include special cover versions from people like Carly Simon’s family (w/ Ben and Sally) doing The Everly Brothers’ “Devoted to You” and Amos Lee doing an up-close-and-personal version of John Prine’s “Speed of the Sound of Loneliness”, among others.
