Can Understanding The Brain Help You Sell More Music?

April Smith and the Great Picture Show: Terrible Things (Official Video)
By Eliot Van Buskirk of Evolver.fm . A McGill University study found that activity in the brain’s nucleus accumbens reflects one’s willingness to buy music after hearing it for the first time. It’s hardly surprising that a part of the brain also known as the “reward center” would be responsible for deciding whether to buy (or like/favorite/collect ) a particular piece of music, but it’s pretty neat that the amount of activity in that reward center even corresponds to how much one is willing to spend on it [...]

I've been particularly enamored of the video (above) for her song 'terrible things,' as it is zombie season (halloween.) [...]

New Video + Tour Dates : April Smith and The Great Picture Show : Terrible Things

New Video + Tour Dates : April Smith and The Great Picture Show : Terrible Things April Smith is my kinda gal. Bubbly personality, chirpy voice and a gracious hostess who evidently could show Martha Stewart a thing or two about throwing a rager. Her debut, Songs For A Sinking Ship , is chock full of Dixieland ditties and old-timey Southland swing, guaranteed to get four generations shaking their respective moneymakers. Sure, it's all rosy cheeks and toothy grins on the outside, but as the video for Terrible Things suggests, Miss Smith is a troubled young lady, who probably has at least a passing familiarity with [...]
