With so many great artists that swing through PensEyeView.com offices each day, I sometimes think I’ve seen it all – or at least more of the same. However, when David Stark was sent my way, it was clear I have not. Talk about a showman – Stark, an event planner, designer, author and artist all wrapped up into a pop art-renaissance man, is creating an installation at the west elm location on Broadway and 62nd in New York City, opening on May 13.

Lee DeWyze is an incredibly talented singer/songwriter who is inspired by his life experiences. The melodies express his emotions;  unique, memorable, and emotionally charged lyrics that touch the soul.  Dewyze blends elements  of soul, rock and  his personal touch to his music creating a "one of a kind" singer/songwriter.

by Walter Zalis - 8x10 in Federal Hill, Baltimore, MD – 8/2/2009

PensEyeView has been to the 8x10 in Baltimore before – between the group of us, we’ve probably been to at least a couple dozen shows. So we know the venue well, almost as well as know the Federal Hill area around it.

“Bear Me Up” CD

In the beginning, we liked Bo Bice. Yes, my husband and I were among the millions to faithfully dial in our vote for him on American Idol week after week. Not only did we like Bo's voice and his style, he just reminded us of a guy we might know from back home. We grew up in rural Maryland... in a place where tractor pulls actually still happen, oversized pickups are coveted and where southern/classic rock still rolls. Yes, Bo was our man.

Receiving albums in the mail every day is definitely one of the perks with running PensEyeView.com. The only problem is there is never enough time in the day to sit and give each a good listen. To compensate, I work them into my daily routines. If I get a fast paced album with great beats, I save it for when I am running or working out. A mellower folk piece, I might turn on during a nice dinner or long car ride. Still, sometimes that doesn't work and days go by before I can give an album the proper attention.

Ram's Head Live! in Baltimore, MD June 20th, 2008

In the past year PensEyeView.com has featured over 200 different artists every 48 hours; rock, pop, rap, country, alternative, bluegrass, blues, jazz, you name it. With that you start to realize why some artists stand out over others. About two months ago, I received UK pop sensation, Kate Nash's debut CD "Made Of Bricks" and was hooked from the start. Songs like, Foundations, Merry Happy, Pumpkin Soup and yes, even Dickhead were added to my favorites.
