Kevin Selfe

Recorded January 5, 2007

Producer Notes: Kevin Selfe was one of the first musicians to grace the TimesCast, using his tasty blues guitar riffs and degree in meteorology to create the recurring bluescast segment. Kevin left the Roanoke valley for Richmond back in 2006, and at the beginning of 2007 left the east coast for the more musically friendly city of Portland. We wish him the best of luck, and appreciate his laid back attitude and willingness to help out some lowly webcasters.

Top 5 music videos this week on the MusicCast

Updated July 2: Some things never change. The spectacle of fireworks on the Fourth of July. The joys of a three-day weekend. Or, the five most popular videos on the MusicCast. For the third week in a row, Mike Roos has the most-played video on the MusicCast with "Blacksburg," his song about the Virginia Tech shootings. And all the others stay the same, too, although the order changes a bit. Two songs by The Seed switch places. A third one moves up, and Jimmy Danger, featuring Neanderpaul, falls to No. 5 ("Nothing But Wrong" had been No. 1 a few weeks ago.) Don't agree with any of these? Hey, don't look at us. We base the MusicCast Top 5 on who gets the most plays so if there's someone you like, just keep on clicking.

If you think your band's video should be in the Top 5, well, post it to our site, and maybe it will be. The top three videos this week are ones the artists recorded themselves. Details are below.

Here’s the week's Top 5:

1. "Blacksburg," by Mike Roos
2. "No More," by The Seed
3. "Can You Understand," by The Seed
4. "A New Season," by The Seed"
5. "Nothing But Wrong," by Jimmy Danger, featuring Neanderpaul

Next update coming: July 9.

Next band coming to the MusicCast: Maybe yours, if you submit a video.


What is the MusicCast?

The MusicCast is a video blog of local bands. We started in the fall of '06 bringing bands into our studio at The Roanoke Times. That proved popular with fans, not so much with our co-workers -- especially after one metal band brought in amps the size of a small house. We're told that things were rattling on desks on the second floor.

Now we're recording out of Jake Dempsey's Red Room Studio in Roanoke.

Along with the videos themselves, you'll find links to the band's website and MySpace profile. Click the MySpace profile link to see when the band is playing again and to contact them directly.

How do I navigate this site?

Below, you'll find an alphabetical list which contains all of the MusicCast videos. Don't know what you're looking for? Just click around until you find what you like - it's all here.
