Fortune admitted to heavy cocaine use during the latest INXS tour and acknowledged that his drug habit had likely contributed to INXS's decision.

Former INXS manager and now record company head Chris Murphy responded at the time by saying that Fortune had never been fired by the band, but that the band was reluctant to continue working with him because of the drug-use allegations.

EPISODE 29 -  Spotify is rolling out a new feature called “Enhance” which will automatically spiff up your playlists with recommended songs that (theoretically) fit in with your music’s existing style and theme. The feature works through a new Enhance button that now appears at the top of playlists. Tap it to toggle it on, which causes Spotify’s algorithm to automatically add recommended songs that it thinks will fit into your playlist. Enhance-recommended songs will be marked with a bright green sparkles icon to indicate that they weren’t part of your original list and can be added permanently by tapping the plus button that appears next to the song. SPOTIFY’S ALGORITHM IS HERE TO SPICE UP YOUR PLAYLISTS WITH NEW SONGS Songs added through Enhance won’t replace or mess with your existing playlist songs, though, and can easily be removed by simply toggling off the Enhance button at the top of your playlist. You also won’t have to worry about the recommendations drowning out your original songs — Spotify will only add a maximum of 30 songs, with the additions spaced out after every two tracks. Enhanced playlists are available on both Android and iOS and are set to roll out over the next month to Spotify Premium subscribers in the following countries: Andorra, Australia, Austria, Belgium, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Mexico, Monaco, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, Turkey, UK, and the US. The company notes that it’ll roll the feature out to additional countries in the future. ___ The Add To My Playlist Website Have a podcast and need a great website?

EX28 - EXTERNAL Version for Non-Spotify Listeners A star-studded line-up, including Paul McCartney and Liam Gallagher, joined the Foo Fighters for an emotional tribute to the band's drummer Taylor Hawkins at a concert in London on Saturday night. Hawkins, 50, died in March in Bogotá, Colombia, hours before the Foo Fighters were set to take the stage at the Festival Estereo Picnic. The band immediately canceled its remaining tour dates. Saturday's concert was the first time the band had performed together since Hawkins' death. According to the UK's PA Media news agency, a tearful Foo Fighters front man Dave Grohl told the crowd at London's Wembley Stadium: "Taylor loved to jam and record with anybody and everybody. He loved to play music every day. And there aren't too many people that he's never jammed with. So this collection of friends and family and musicians, this is all brought together by him and we're all connected here today by that one guy." The theme of family was ever-present throughout the show. Sixteen-year-old Oliver Shane Hawkins joined his father's band for a powerful rendition of Foo Fighters song "My Hero." "Ladies and gentlemen, we have one more drummer that's going to come up and play with us," Grohl said as he welcomed Hawkins' son to the stage. "And let me tell you I don't think I've ever seen anyone hit the drums as hard as this person, but beyond that, he's a member of our family. And he needs to be here tonight with all of us, and I think it makes sense that he's going to come up and play with us tonight." Some of music's biggest names turned out to honor Hawkins including Queen's Roger Taylor and Brian May, Rush, AC/DC singer Brian Johnson and Nile Rodgers. The Pretenders' Chrissie Hynde, pop star Kesha, Eurovision sensation Sam Ryder and The Darkness front man Justin Hawkins also joined the celebration.

About Moxy Anne Moxy Anne is a 25-year-old musician from Southern California who sings her heart out with passion, energy, and excellence. Born in Newport Beach, CA, Moxy was a member of several local children’s singing groups and performed and recorded behind talent like Jackie Evancho, Aerosmith, Josh Groban, and Meryl Streep. Venues like the Microsoft Theater, Carnegie Hall, the LA Forum, Disneyland, the Walt Disney Concert Hall, and the House of Blues have all allowed Moxy to use her voice differently. She trained with renowned artist Gina Saputo, and began to venture into the musical world. As her experiences cultivated passion, she started her own band, Moxy and The Influence. MXI garnered thousands of international fans, released EPs Alive and The Best Revenge, as well as 3 music videos, and toured internationally. During college she studied privately with Sara Leib, Teryn Ré, and Bill Cantos. She was a member of the world-renowned APU Chamber Singers, touring China/Hong Kong.

Singing regularly in a multitude of styles (rock, jazz, pop, R&B, electronic, country, reggae, folk, classical, choral, acoustic and acapella music), she enjoys any experience where she can collaborate with talented musicians and reach others with the power and influence of music.

EX 26 - Max Gowan - Musician First, Audio Engineer, Song Writer - Ornamental, No More Chirping, Snakes and Steely Dan - Dirty Work Hi, my name is Max and I'm an audio engineer based in Raleigh, NC. I received my BA in Communications as well as a minor in Audio Technology from American University in Washington, DC in 2019. I'm also a musician and producer and have been making records under my own name since I was 16. After mixing my own music for years, I developed my ear and began to work on albums other than my own. I started to get more work through word of mouth, which has allowed me to become involved in dozens of records by artists that I love. I am a musician first, and that's how I approach the engineering side of this art. I know how much your songs matter to you, because I know how much mine matter to me! My goal is never to impart "my sound" onto your project. Instead, I want to communicate with you about your desires for your music, so we can take a collaborative approach that results in the final mix or master that you are looking for. Thanks for taking the time to read this, and I look forward to working with you. Max Gowan has found himself as a centrifugal figure in the burgeoning music scene of central North Carolina. Through his behind-the-scenes work as an audio engineer, recording, mixing, and mastering both for local musicians and musicians around the country, he is a key force of all the invisible parts that go into music production. But with his sixth full length album Glossolalia, Max Gowan is taking a step out from the background, delving into personal and intimate themes for his new full length album. He indicates that this is a noticeable shift thematically – an intentional movement away from the muted or covert storytelling, and a direct effort to be more visible and transparent, even biographical, in his songwriting. The 25-year-old native of Raleigh, North Carolina has a long list to show for his music production accomplishments, and now his attention to detail and audio craftsmanship shines through on an album with production credits all his own. Gowan's richness in texture and soundscapes will often crown him as your favorite musician's favorite musician – the talent and dexterity instrumentality and the obvious knowledge of production uplift this project. releases September 2, 2022  "Viola and French Horn on Track 1 played by Caroline White Additional Synth on Track 2 played by Nate Wagner French Horn on Track 2 played by Caroline White Additional Synth on Track 5 played by Rex Echevarria Drums on Track 5 played by Chris Coco Additional drums on Track 6 played by Chris Coco Drums on Track 7 played by Travis Harrington Track 8 was co-produced by me and Brandon Breazeale  Huge thank you to all my friends and family, and to Sound As Language for putting this out."

EPISODE 24 - EXTERNAL Version for Non-Spotify Listeners! LIFEHOUSE Jason Wade: Singer/songwriter/guitarist/piano  Rick Woolstenhulme: Drums  Bryce Soderberg: Bass “And we turn it inside out/To take it back/To the start.” “Who We Are” With the release of Lifehouse: Greatest Hits on Universal Music Enterprises, a chronological collection of the band’s 18 hit singles and best songs, this year marks a time for the band to look back on a remarkably successful career.  Founded in 1999 by singer/ songwriter/guitarist Jason Wade in suburban Los Angeles while still in his teens as Blyss, Lifehouse has forged a path that most bands only dream about, topping the charts, having hit songs all over the radio, sharing the stage at arenas with the likes of the Rolling Stones, Pearl Jam and Matchbox Twenty. Since bursting on to the scene in 2000 with their hit debut, No Name Face – which sported the chart-topping Modern Rock-turned Hot 100 #2 hit, “Hanging by a Moment” – Lifehouse has released seven albums that have cumulatively sold more than 15 million around the world, spawning a string of multi-format airplay hits like “You and Me”, “First Time”, “Whatever It Takes” and “Halfway Gone”, the latter four co-written by Wade with collaborator Jude Cole. Having taken some time out after the release of 2015’s Out of the Wasteland, Lifehouse’s three members have dedicated themselves to individual pursuits. Recently signed to Sony/ATV Music Publishing, Wade has devoted himself to writing, releasing 40 songs that have never previously been available- one a week on the Internet. Bassist Bryce Soderberg now fronts his own band Komox (named after his Canadian hometown), while drummer Rick Woolstenhulme moved with his wife to Arizona to pursue online session work from his recording studio. “Radio has changed dramatically in the last few years, so it’s a nice change to be off that treadmill,” admits Wade, the son of missionaries who traveled to various countries, including Hong Kong before returning to the Pacific Northwest and then the West Valley of L.A., where he turned to songwriting to cope with a “traumatic” adolescence. “We feel a profound gratitude to be able to get to this point,” echoes Soderberg, who joined the band in 2004 in time to play on 2005’s Lifehouse album. “That we can celebrate our accomplishments with a new tour and Greatest Hits record makes this an amazing time for us.” https://lifehousemusic.com/ Lifehouse - Hanging By A Moment (Official Video) Lifehouse - Somewhere In Between ___ The Add To My Playlist Website Have a podcast and need a great website?

About our guest! Emma G is an award-winning musician, author, and youth empowerment coach, I have had a lifelong battle with a rare neurological condition called hydrocephalus, so I understand trauma. I’ve been able to use music to recover from multiple traumas, including ten brain surgeries, by writing and singing my truth, sharing my experiences, and turning my lessons into blessings. I have a unique style that marries the styles of pop, soulful ballads, and a gritty rock edge. I’m now on a mission to save the world one song at a time, not just through my own music, but also by coaching teenagers to channel their voices and struggles through the powerful tool of songwriting. We all experience trauma, but songwriting is an effective tool to not simply communicate your teenagers’ struggles, but to identify key issues, simplify overwhelm, find the right language to communicate their thoughts, and present their learnings, feelings and overwhelm in a way that is non-confrontational, authentic, and creative. Youth Empowerment through Songwriting coaching is the perfect way I combine my background as a teacher, lecturer, YMCA youth coordinator and – of course – a singer/songwriter. Music is an incredibly effective tool for alchemy: helping audiences and teen songwriters alike overcome struggles, trauma, stress and overwhelm with songs of overcoming, resilience, self-love and stepping into one’s power.
