Hello Beautiful People, I’m so thrilled to be able to introduce you to these two artists – Janet Krupin and Alex Caraballo of Trillium. They are the type of creatives that inspire others to just jump after dreams, ideas, and work that fuels your soul. MM: First things first, can you tell our readers what…
Hello, music fans! I’m back with another artist recommendation! This time it’s New England-born singer/songwriter Willy Mason. Mason has actually enjoyed more success in the United Kingdom than he has in his home country since he first entered the music scene, but 2013 brought him some much-deserved attention here in the States. He toured the…
Hello, everyone! Time for another artist profile! This past Labor Day weekend, I traveled to Troy, Ohio to attend one of Mumford & Sons’ Gentlemen of the Road stopover festivals for two days of music and fun. It was my second time seeing Mumford & Sons, and I got to see some other pretty incredible…
Hey music fans! I’m back with another artist for you all to check out! Thank you for your patience; I should be able to share a new artist every month from now on.

Hello Beautiful People, As fate would have it, I happened to interview Mr. Joe Iconis the week after Jeremy Jordan sang “Broadway, Here I Come!” on the season two premier of Smash. I tell you this, because Joe wrote the song – and it’s outstanding. But Joe is no stranger to the musical theater writing…
Hello, everyone! I hope you enjoyed my first post on The Write Teacher(s) and that you’ve had a chance to check out Dawes. And if you did check them out, I hope you liked them. My next artist is one that I first heard on Pandora radio: the Head and the Heart. After months of…
Hello, Everyone! I’m excited to begin sharing my music findings with you all! My focus for many of my pieces for The Write Teacher(s) will be folk/indie folk/folk rock artists. Folk has proven to be quite the force in the last few years, as artists like Mumford & Sons, The Avett Brothers, the Lumineers, Ray…
Hello Beautiful People, As you may know, The Write Teacher(s) is based in New York, specifically Long Island and New York City. When Hurricane Sandy hit our shores, well, lives were forever changed. But, on 12/12/12, we came back fighting. We came back with a vengeance. And we did it, through music & the arts….
