MidPoint for Thursday, August 11 with Steve Schale

Posted on by Mitch Perry
Share

Steve Schale knows Florida politics as well as any strategist going.

He was one of the architects for Barack Obama’s victory in the Sunshine State in 2008, and assisted in his 2012 reelection bid as well. Steve has also worked on getting Florida House Democrats elected (from 2005-2008), worked in Alex Sink’s 2010 gubernatorial campaign, and Gwen Graham’s successful run for Congress in 2014.

This week he published a post on his blog regarding the state of the state of Florida, if you will, in 2016.

Later in the program, we spoke briefly with Evelyn Perez-Verdia, a Latina activist who has led the effort to persuade both the Republican and Democratic state parties in Florida to hire a bilingual spokesperson.

It really fills a void in what is today’s music. The variety of genres, rhythms, arrangements, tempos, and vocal stylings keep the listener rapt with attention and tells you that you are entering very special, privileged territory. In addition, the lyrics are great, and so it becomes a sort of a battle to choose between focusing on the words, the music, or the downright stunning vocal performances.”– tunedloud.com CLICK EVENTS IN LINKTREE FOR TICKETS! 🚨 Special Show Alert! 🚨 Tune in this Friday at 10am for a Special interview with Andrew Warren!

The amount of soul in this vocal is absolutely phenomenal. The overall production feels like it could have been recorded in Stax in the last 60s. The vibe feels legit and is something we are proud to support. This one came along at just the right time… not too soon or too late. If you miss the “good old days” when people made “real music” then you need to spin this track” (Too Soon, Too Late)” – Ear To The Ground #thw24 #Livemusic #wmnfevents CLICK EVENTS IN LINKTREE FOR TICKETS!
