Bands & Musicians
Of course I could point you to artists like Sam Bush www.sambush.com who I've followed since his days with New Grass Revival, or Tim O'Brien www.timobrien.net who never met a song he couldn't write (Think about that for a minute), or even Darrell Scott www.darrellscott.com who amazes anyone who sees him, but then you probably already know about them and I'd just be wasting space.  Rather, I'd like to link you to some artists and bands that maybe will be new to you... then again, maybe not.  First, though, you'd better check out a few of my songs at: www.reverbnation.com/markpistrang  or www.myspace.com/markpistrang


Shannon Whitworth has one of the most distictive voices you will hear, bar none!  She was a defining part of the Biscuit Burners original sound and will soon be defining a place of her own in the music world.  Check her out at:  http://www.shannonwhitworth.net
One of current faves (but sadly no longer playing together) is the Biscuit Burners www.thebiscuitburners.com  They were simply an amazing band out of Asheville, NC  that were turning heads (and ears) everywhere they went!!  But alas, sometimes good things come to an end...

A friend from the Strawberry Music Festival and fellow songwriter, Michael Gaither even once wrote jokes for Jay Leno....  Think I'm kidding?  Go to www.michaelgaither.com and check out his music, stories, and general philosophy of the whole me.com trend...  Michael can also be found at: www.myspace.com/michaelgaithermusic
