This week on Finding Your Bliss, we have a show devoted to music. Celebrity Interviewer and Bliss Coach Judy Librach is joined by Gregory Childs & Heart Lung who are an alt-country band, converging on the corner where roots meets grunge. The band is led by songwriter Gregory Childs and consists of his wife Velvet Jean as well as a crew of long-time friends (Brent Kervin, Jonathan Billings, Luke Sutherland), who make up the gritty mix of musical accompaniment that includes harmonica, guitars, drums and screams. In October 2020, the band dropped their debut first release, the “Baby Blue” EP, which was distributed both digitally as well as physically, in a limited release of 7” Vinyl. The EP contained two tracks, “Baby Blue” and “Blood Ties,” both of which garnered play on local radio stations, including CIUT 89.5 FM, as well as internationally, on Galaxy FM in Kawerau, New Zealand where it was picked up by local music enthusiasts and broadcast regularly. In 2022, the band released two new singles, “Lonesome” and “From the Chest.” Both were broadcast on numerous radio stations, including multiple shows on CIUT 89.5 FM and NZ's Galaxy 107FM. “From the Chest” reached number six on the Canadian Independent Country Countdown, run by Coyote 103 FM in Sarnia, Ontario. In early 2023, Gregory Childs & Heart Lung were discovered by Alan Cross, who featured the band as an “undiscovered gem,” as part of The Edge 102.1 FM's show, History of New Music. The band was described as “unplugged Nirvana… maybe a little dark Fleetwood Mac”. In 2024, the band was featured by Canadian radio legend Jeff Woods on his Records and Rockstars podcast, the episode aired on April 5th. Throughout the band's existence, they have been regulars in the Toronto music scene, consistently gigging at places like The Dakota Tavern, Cameron House and Kensington Market. They have finished recording a full-length album and have been mixing in preparation for a release in the fall of 2024. The first single from the album, titled “Useless & Young,” was released on January 30th, 2024.

In this episode I talk to Shaun Lever about his 25 year, to date, career in music… Beginning in 90's and spanning some epic moments including presenting an MTV show, producing radio shows on Galaxy FM, the process of taking his pirate radio station 'legal' and the inception of Trick Babies and Boy Raver, two of his most successful artist aliases. Shaun, like myself, loves playing records to people, as a DJ it really can't be underestimated how important this inbuilt trait is, especially if you want to last as long in the industry as Shaun has and be as successful as he has been… Stay tuned for an engaging and educational look back at the last 25 years of Shaun's career, from the birth of Acid House through the explosion of the superstar DJ right up to the present day!

Andy Spencer has been involved with the music industry since the late 1980’s. Today, he still possesses the same passion and enthusiasm for music but with the added knowledge and experience to know what makes a crowd scream with approval! Like many DJ’s of his era, Andy has progressed from playing vinyl records to CDs, and has established a great understanding of the Pioneer CDJ1000’s and various professional mixer units. And certainly the last 10 years have demonstrated that Andy can ‘mix it with the best’, with appearances at the Winter Music Conference, Miami, plus DJ sets at the Ministry of Sound, London, the Custard Factory, Birmingham, Fez Club, Cambridge, Club North, Manchester, Rapture, Loughborough, Escapade, Newport, and Studio 54, Coventry. Some of these appearances have been alongside established DJ’s such as • Seamus Haji (Big Love) • Mark Doyle (Fierce Angel/Hed Kandi) • Dan Smith (Danism/Defected) • Michael Gray (Full Intention) • Sonny Wharton (Toolroom) • Jim ‘Shaft’ Ryan (Miss Moneypenny’s) • Jeff Jefferson (Miss Moneypenny’s) • Tom Heron (Café Mambo) • Miss Divine (Cream) • Claire Spooner (Pacha) • Andy Nicholls (Love Shy) • Jon Vickers (Ibiza Rocks) • Rid Welson (Naughty But Nice) • Dave Pearce (Dance Anthems) • and the late, great Tony De Vit (Trade). He has also had mixes featured on radio via BRMB FM’s DanceMasters show and Riley & Durrant on Galaxy FM. Although he started DJ’ing back in 1988, developing through a mixture of private parties and several more commercial venue residencies, it wasn’t until the Summer of 2005 when he launched Funkin Good – a brand to promote ‘chunky, funky & soulful house music’. Andy enjoyed much success in the running, promoting and DJ’ing at various events throughout the Midlands. During 2010 he ran several Funkin Good All-Night Party’s at Karma Bar in Great Yarmouth, with further more successful nights in 2011. In May 2008, Andy collaborated with fellow Midlands DJ’s Alex Ross, Shaun Mynett and James Brewerton to launch FLUSH. They quickly established a monthly night at the Forge Bar in Cannock playing funky, electro, tech and progressive house music. The night has gone from strength to strength, and has subsequently held events at the Custard Factory in Birmingham, Bar 360 in Stoke On Trent, the Loft Bar and Ciro’s in Ashby De La Zouch, and the Ikon Bar in Newcastle Under Lyme. In addition, Andy has returned to more commercial venues with a Summer 2009 residency completed at the Varsity Bar in Coventry, quickly followed by a new Friday night residency at Rio’s in Leamington Spa. The success of Friday nights has continued throughout 2010, and in addition Andy has taken bookings throughout the UK, plus various other events & parties that he is invited to play at! Currently, Andy has a DJ residency at The Ropewalk in St Paul’s Square, Birmingham on both Friday & Saturday nights. Friday is a commercial night featuring music from different genres & decades, with Saturday night promoted as a House Music event under the name of STYLE. The success of this Saturday night event has led to further DJ appearances & the running of STYLE night’s at other Midlands venues. A recent new venture for Andy has been to co-produce a monthly podcast show with Shaun Mynett for Electronic Sessions. As of March 2011, Andy produces & hosts a monthly 1 hour podcast show called House Bound, and is broadcast exclusively on Sense.fm. The success of these 2 projects have led to his new weekly show called At Night that he presents for Cannock based station, Chase.fm. During the Summer of 2012, Andy was invited to join the DJ roster for the legendary club night Miss Moneypennys, and has been involved with the renaissance of the brand over the past few months. Away from the club scene, Andy also provides DJ & PA services to several major High Street retailers, such as Selfridges, House of Fraser, Debenhams & Bank. So, continuing into 2013 & what is shaping up to be another hugely successful year for Andy Spencer, with some new DJ, production & promotion projects. But one thing will always be the case - Andy is a hard working, experienced DJ with an immense passion for house music.
