BMI Focuses on West Coast Talent in Podcast #3

BMI continues its popular podcast series with the release of a third show featuring exceptional yet undiscovered talent based on the West Coast.

All of the featured songwriter/artists are currently working out of Southern California, including Missoula, Montana-born rocker Terra Naomi, who climbs to new heights with her podcast performance of "Up Here." LA natives The Plebz merge punk, funk and rock to shake the rafters with "Lights, Camera, Action." Formerly part of the East Coast punk scene, The Ettes generate high energy with "Gimmie." Melding decades of America rock and pop with the melodic spice of India, Goldspot cooks on "Friday."

The new podcast also includes an interview with songwriter Brendan James, who recently signed a recording contract with Capitol Records. James was a featured performer on the first BMI podcast, released last May.
