Midnight by Starring Morgan Freeman
created on Thu, 10/02/2008 - 07:21
A striking song by a local band who does not actually feature the prolific actor. Their singer, Johnny, is a friend of mine. I happened upon them by accident while attending a local show and we hit it off. They are a highly talented group. Giving a new breath to the concept of a "power trio", they stay away from the typical trio work (pop-punk, vaguely-folkish-alterna-rock, weird indie), and stick instead with a Killers-esque vibe full of life, emotion, and intelligence, without becoming inaccessible. Check out their myspace at www.myspace.com/starringmorganfreeman.

Thanks for getting the word out Aaron. I really dig the indy/killers feel to it. Could you get the actual band to post some more stuff here?
Also, this is not to you, more to the actual community, but I know a lot of people have been posting comments on people's blogs which is great, but Undiscovered is really becoming more music, film, and art focused these days (especially with the brand new redesign next week). So if you're blogging, great! But make sure it's not just "here's what I did today" or stuff re-posted from your blogspot or wordpress. We want to see creative short stories, poetry, and some originality! We know you have it in you! And start commenting on these excellent musicians and filmmakers who are posting their talent to Undiscovered. Let's have a new kind of conversation here that blends all these art forms, (music, film, art, and creative writing) together!

I will try. Being indy as they are, they tend to be a bit tecno-phobic, but I will try talking them into joining up and posting :)
