Football and Chicken

September 23, 2019 / admin / 0 Comments

Here’s a recent project I voiced for Rocs Local Market. I got to, well, “reference” a couple of my original announcer heroes, legends both. This delivery channels elements of NFL Films announcer John Facenda, and the man who took over for him after his passing, longtime voice of the Philadelphia Phillies (my favorite baseball team growing up) Harry Kalas. This is by no means an impression of either man, but a melding in the style of each. Thanks to The Audio Suite for hiring me.

Virginia Tech Athletics

Virginia Tech has become one of my all-time favorite voiceover clients. They are great to work with, provide good copy and direction, and produce great work. Essentially, they do all the work for me. All I have to do is stick a mic in my face and try not to screw it up. Here’s a new video they produced with my voiceover that will run online, on their social media and during in-game.

River City Limits on WRIR 9-7-19

September 8, 2019 / admin / 0 Comments

I hosted River City Limits on Richmond’s independent radio station WRIR on Saturday night. It features artists from in and around RVA. Here’s a playlist of the the songs and artists played who have a presence on Spotify -plus a few more that I had planned to play but ran out of time for. There are a few who are not on Spotify and are not included here. Check the WRIR logo below for the full playlist. See who else was on the show and go and support them too.

“Good Eye” Is Back

September 6, 2019 / admin / 0 Comments

Once upon a time I had a podcast. It featured good people doing good stuff. It focused on wellness, mindfulness practices, health, creativity and other interesting topics. I’d invite smart, interesting people in to ask them questions so I could steal their knowledge and share it with you, the listener. The original name was a little to similar to another entity so I renamed the podcast and relaunched it as “The Good Eye Podcast“. The podcast and an accompanying Facebook page is live. Look for Instagram, Twitter and YouTube with the handle @goodeyepodcast and a website for notes and other content at goodeyepodcast.com. The first new episode is about this year’s Bike MS: Colonial Crossroads event to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. It follows my brother and me as we participate in the MS Ride from Richmond, Va to Williamsburg, Va and back. Check it out! And feel free to submit topic and guest ideas via the Facebook page. Thanks! -Jay

R.I.P. Hal Blaine

September 1, 2019 / admin / 0 Comments

Looking back at The Wrecking Crew‘s Hal Blaine following his passing earlier this year. One of the greatest studio musicians ever and one of the most recorded drummers of all time. His drumming has been heard on thousands of songs and hundreds of hits, 40 of which went to number one, laying the foundation for artists such as Frank Sinatra, The Supremes, Elvis Presley, the Beach Boys, John Denver, Tanya Tucker, Simon & Garfunkel, Barbara Streisand, Steely Dan, Neil Diamond, and the Byrds. It’s fascinating to hear him in the context of so many different arrangements and approaches to songwriting, recording techniques of various producers, tones, artists’ musical visions and evolving tastes in different eras of popular music. And yet you can always hear his signature sound within it all. His influence on drumming and session recording in popular music can’t be measured.
