SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special — 8/24 — Dan Raza / Sam Mooney
DESCRIPTION:PLUCKED while still a student to tour with Joan Armatrading\, and championed by Neil Young on his ‘Living With War’ website\, Dan Raza has spent the first chapter of his career weaving folk troubadour magic around the clubs and halls of the UK and Europe while quietly building a reputation as one of the UK’s best-kept musical secrets. \nWith two critically-acclaimed albums under his belt\, the singer-songwriter\, whose roots lie in folk\, Americana and lyrical pop balladry\, has won support along the way from some of the biggest names in folk music\, such as Rodney Crowell (“great voice and fine arranging sensibilities”)\, Tom Paxton (“killer songs”) and John McCutcheon (“one of my favourite discoveries of recent years”)\, and has long been tipped for wider mainstream recognition. \nNow with the release of his third LP –  Wayfarer – that could happen. While the core elements of his music remain rooted in the troubadour tradition\, the album’s eclectic mix of styles – ranging from soul\, folk\, blues\, country\, Tin Pan Alley\, and Britpop – betoken a wider appeal. With shades of Jackson Browne\, Bruce Springsteen\, Roy Orbison and Bill Withers\, Raza’s latest offering could well be the one to reach a mainstream audience. \n \n“My name is Sam Mooney. I’m a musician from Mississippi\, and I’m lucky enough to have the privilege of making music for you. \nFor as long as I can remember\, few things have brought me as much joy as music. Whether it’s going to a show\, playing piano\, or jamming to music in the car with friends\, I just love it. Naturally\, a life working in the music industry is the dream I decided to chase! \nOver the last several years\, I’ve spent most of my free time on the road playing shows. In that time\, I’ve been blessed with some amazing opportunities. I’ve gotten to open for and share the stage with some of my favorite bands and musicians\, record and release three projects\, and travel around the country performing. Most importantly\, however\, I’ve gotten make countless new friends on the journey. \nMy hope is to write music that will speak into your life. Music that will bring you joy. Music that will be a soundtrack to whatever lies ahead on your journey. My goal is to put on fun and exciting shows that will allow you to escape into a special musical experience and make great memories. Hopefully\, I’ll even get to meet you at a show sometime! \nThere’s so much more I could say\, but I’ll leave the conversation with you to be continued in person or on social media. My links can be found at the bottom of the page! \nThanks again for being here. It’s only because of you that I get to make music.”

SUMMARY:The WDVX Blue Plate Special — 8/27 — Jennifer Alvarado / Maynard and the Musties
DESCRIPTION:Jennifer Alvarado is redefining what it means to be a country artist in today’s music scene. With a sound that fuses the heartfelt storytelling of 90s country with the raw\, unfiltered honesty of alternative rock\, her music has been described as “Deana Carter meets Alanis Morissette.” But Jennifer isn’t just another artist blending genres—she’s a truth-teller\, a fighter\, and a voice for those who have ever felt out of place. Her songs are unflinchingly personal\, yet universally relatable\, tackling love\, loss\, trauma\, and redemption with a fearless honesty that sets her apart. \nBorn and raised in Hickory\, North Carolina\, Alvarado’s love for music was sparked at the age of four when her grandfather first placed a guitar in her hands. Growing up\, she found her voice singing in church and school performances\, but a devastating loss and relentless bullying in middle school silenced her for years. While others saw her talent\, she struggled with crippling performance anxiety\, choosing instead to write in secret. It wasn’t until her mid-teens\, when she picked up the guitar again and began leading worship\, that she slowly reclaimed her confidence. \nAlvarado’s path to music wasn’t a straight shot. Despite earning a music scholarship\, she ultimately pursued a degree in Political Science and Family Ministries\, preparing for a future in law and ministry. She worked as an Intellectual Property Paralegal\, led worship at two churches\, and taught guitar and ukulele on the side. But music never stopped calling. In 2020\, facing a crossroads\, she decided to take a chance — submitting her music to Indie Star Radio. The response was immediate and overwhelming\, leading to her being named Country Artist of the Year in 2021. From that moment\, there was no turning back. \nSince then\, Jennifer has become one of the most relentless independent artists in country music\, performing over 200 shows a year across the country. She’s played legendary venues like The Viper Room\, intimate clubs on the California coast\, and countless stages across NC\, TN\, GA\, VA\, SC\, CT\, KY\, and TX. Her goal? To play all 50 states and bring her music to international audiences. While she’s been told she’s “not redneck enough” for country music and “too old” to chase a dream\, she refuses to let the industry define her. Instead\, she writes and sings on her own terms\, creating music that resonates with those searching for something deeper than another whiskey-soaked party anthem. \nBeyond the music\, Jennifer is deeply passionate about using her platform to make a difference. She is actively involved in Celebrate Recovery\, prison ministry\, and organizations supporting women overcoming addiction and homelessness. She volunteers at various local recovery based ministries in North Carolina\, Tennessee Oncology in Nashville\, and Meals on Wheels.  Jennifer Alvarado is more than a musician — she is a storyteller\, an advocate\, and proof that resilience and faith can carve out a space where none seemed to exist. She isn’t chasing fame or fortune. She’s chasing meaning\, moments\, and the chance to remind others that their voice\, their dreams\, and their stories matter. \n \nMaynard and the Musties will perform as well!
