Then he sent us a MySpace link to Birmingham band, Act of Congress, and I was immediately hooked. I am an extreme audiophile and a shrewd judge of musical talent. I found AOC to be a group of exceptionally talented musicians, singers, songwriters, and song arrangers. Their attention to detail and dedication to song crafting is second to none.

I prefer not to interview artists because it takes much preparation and research to do correctly. But after listening to the CD “Declaration”, I was so hooked on the band that I actually asked if I could do one with them.

I usually turn down interviews because I tend to be brutally honest with the subjects, and have a difficult time interviewing people who make music that is not to my liking. The interview with AOC was the easiest I have ever done.
