| Orlando Fast Becoming Music Capital |
Yes, the land of Mickey Mouse
has grown into what many
consider the music capital of the
southeast. And why not? With
a huge talent pool, plenty of
world class recording studios,
first rate venues, and an
endless supply and demand for
music thanks to a sprawling and
young demographic coupled
with all those tourists, Orlando
could someday be THE music
capital in the US.

The Orlando, FL music scene is bursting with talent like never

One Hit Wonder? Why?
Sometimes commercial radio just
doesn't get it. That's why we hear the
same things over and over again with
little regard for the what we, the
listening public want to hear. Case in
point, Framing Hanley. No one had
heard of this Nashville group until a few
months back when they did an alt rock
cover of Lil' Wayne's "Lollipop".

anyone playing other tracks from their

commercial airplay as are several
others. Check out our interview with
lead singer Nixon for the story behind
"Lollipop", and listen to the track "Hear
Me Now" and you'll be a Framing
Hanley fan for sure!
