Boulder Colorado's John McVey: Musician with a message
Award-winning musician John McVey knows the rigors of the vagabond lifestyle. His career once included 150 to 200 performances each year and carried him across the nation and around the globe. Then a funny thing happened on the way up the rock-star ladder. McVey fell in love with the Rocky Mountains and decided to settle down in the West. He now lives in Boulder, Colorado where his work as a producer and engineer at Coupe Studios affords plenty of time to enjoy a phenomenal life-style that still includes making music. He typically spends evenings in the studio, days in the great outdoors and recently released his third CD aptly titled Unpredictable. As he prepares to launch a promotional tour, McVey shares his thoughts on travel, music and why hes just as interested in raising awareness about feeding hungry school kids as he is in promoting his work.

JOHN McVEY, Unpredictable (self-released)
Though its been a decade since singer/songwriter John McVey released his sophomore platter Jigsaw, hes been heavily involved in the business. The New Jersey native has had a hand in hundreds of albums as a producer and engineer during this stretch, and he brings that vast experience (and 10 years of new material) to album No. 3, the rock solid Unpredictable. The front-loaded 10-track collection of contemporary folk makes for an enjoyable listen, especially keepers A Little More Time, Leave a Little Mark, The Con Mans Easy Chair and the title track.
