Greg Kihn and Michael Brandvold on “Live From Music City.”

April 28, 2011 - PRLog -- Nashville, TN – “Live From Music City,” a weekly radio show that airs on Tuesday nights at 8:00 pm CST on blog talk radio (www.blogtalkradio.com/live-from-music-city), welcomes entertainment/music industry marketing consultant Michael Brandvold (http://www.michaelbrandvold.com) in the third of a four-week series, “How To Market Like A Rock Star!” Also joining the show is Greg Kihn (http://www.gregkihn.com/)  of the Greg Kihn Band, who also happens to be the San Franciso Bay Area’s #1 FM reigning Radio Morning Man.

Michael Brandvold is an entertainment marketing veteran with extensive experience in online, affiliate and social marketing, e-commerce, customer acquisition and retention efforts.  Michael has managed the online efforts for Motley Crue, Rod Stewart, Madonna, Ozzy Osbourne, Gene Simmons and Britney Spears, to name a few.

During his four-week series, “How To Market Like A Rock Star!” Brandvold will be covering topics such as Facebook, Twitter, eCommerce, eMail, Content Strategies (including blogging) and “Your Own Official Website – why you need one and what you need.”

Greg Kihn has recorded and performed with some of the best musicians over his illustrious 35-year career. In fact, before breaking big with his own solo career, guitar virtuoso Joe Satriani was the Greg Kihn Band’s lead guitarist from 1985 – 1987.

Greg’s newest release is a three-disc digital anthology box set entitled, “Kihnplete (Post Beserkley Records)" and is a fascinating retrospective of Kihn’s vast body of work from the post Beserkley Records era, 1985 to present. Kihnplete features multiple versions of some of Kihn’s best known songs, cool live recordings that have never seen the light of day, songs that have been out of print for years, and some songs from Greg’s two solo acoustic CDs recorded in his hometown of Baltimore in the early '90s.

Some musicians appearing throughout the 46 tracks that comprise “Kihnplete” include Joe Satriani, Jimmy Lyon (Eddie Money/Tina Turner guitarist), Steve “Teenage” Douglas (Phil Spector saxophone legend), and Jerry Garcia Band/Craig Chaquico keyboardist, Ozzie Ahlers.

In addition to his music, Kihn thrives as the San Francisco Bay Area’s #1 FM reigning Radio Morning Man, and a prolific author of four novels and one book of short stories.

“Live From Music City” reaches and appeals to singers/musicians who have achieved at least mid-level entry points in their careers. We try to help the artists define the steps they need to take to advance their careers.

We'll discuss a variety of topics through commentary and with guests to showcase their roles within the performing and recording industry. We'll also focus on the music business from the perspective of service to the artist, as well as how the artist can achieve the next levels of success.

While we concentrate on the roles of the 'insiders,' we will also include recording artists themselves to better understand and explore the relationship between the two."
