Hi I am Marisol Richardson but I do get called Mari unless I get in trouble then the full name gets out! Oh, how I remember the Nuns at Notre Dame calling out my full name; one too many time! I live in Northern California with my husband Stephen and my wonderful two sons. I have been going to all types of concerts for the past 30 years. I am 44 now and love all types of music with the little exception of some Rap. It is amazing to say, “I love music and to have it as a job is a bonus!”
My life motto Know Music = Know Life, No Music = No Life!
Music Junkie Press is set to launch our webzine and app late this year. So stay tuned for more of a fix for your addiction to music!!

We do it to promote local metal bands This year is our biggest show yet, we have 10+ extremely talented local metal bands from both Sonoma and Lake County.This years show is July 20th. I want to personally invite you to come to our show and soak up some of the local talent. I have some really talented musicians that you don’t want to miss out on. I look forward to hearing from you. Sincerely, Sheli Hunt
HI Sheli
We are very interested in covering the event. You can contact me directly at mari@musicjunkiepress.com and let me know the details so I can do a pre-show write up!
I look forward to it!

This blog well and truly rocks! So I nominated you for a Versatile Blogger Award.
Great blog
Hi Marisol. I am Patrick O’Heffernan, Host of the nationally syndicated radio program Music Friday. We interview two or three guests a week and cuts from their songs. We specialize in emerging talent from all genres – artists that are on the edge of stardom, and artists that are beginning to break into a professional career. I write music reviews and post interviews of our guests and their music in various places. Would Music Junkie Press be interested in running or reprinting ,my reviews or interviews?. you can check us out at musicfriday.nationbuilder.com. T: @musicfridaylive
HI Patrick,
Definitely. You can email me at mari@musicjunkiepress.com and let’s talk more. I will check it out today.

Thank you for the EPK and the note and the great music. If you want to be considered for an interview on Music Friday Live., go to http://musicfriday.nationbuilder.com, click on the your choice, and enter your information. Music Friday folks will review it. The show is now booking for April and May. MusicFridayLive!’s email is musicfridaylive@gmail.com – email works better than Reverbnation because the web person doesn’t checks Reverb everyday..

Cool stuff! I’m a writer & photographer. I just got back into publishing what I love for a Uni paper where I teach. I began my music journalism in Nashville in the late 80s. Now I’m back at it again and live it!
My biggest regrets is when being around so many musicians that I didn’t take photos! My ex husband was a musician. I was too busy being a hostess! I do not want to ever regret not shooting a piece of history! The only photos I have if my grandfather, The Samba King” are all PR or album shots. ?. So now no regrets! You have some fab shots! I’m just getting going. A broken leg benched me for a bit. Hopefully I’ll be in Cali and will get to meet you! I’m in Houston. Best xx debs
Very cool that you are back to doing it! Writing and music have always been a lifelong passion. We lost our home and business in the 2017 firestorm and it has been a struggle to get back to writing as much. So major creative block but slowly getting through it all. Wish you all the best! ~ M. Richardson
Hey, Mari –
Im a fellow survivor of Catholic School and indie rock singer/songwriter for Katye Kellye and the Interruption from Asbury Park, NJ.
I would love to be featured when you launch. I’m back in the music business after 35 years away after a hashtag #metoo story. I launched an EP in January “Vanity Project” and will be releasing an LP late this summer, aptly called “Late Bloomer”. My music links are on my website, and I hope you take a listen and like what you hear.
Good luck with your webzine!
