    Season's greetings to one and all. Thanks for joining the Northland Artists Conversation as we have our final guest for 2024. Please join us in welcoming, the very cool and amazingly talented, Scotty Burdett.

    To say that our guest Scotty has had to overcome some challenges and obstacles would be a huge understatement. Scotty is one of those artists that may get knocked down by life, but he bounces back even better than he was before, a true symbol of the power of positivity and creativity. Plus he even accepted a challenge that was proposed to him, what a legend!

    Scotty was one of those guests that when we started talking with him, you couldn't believe what you were hearing. His strength and resilience are a true testament to who he is as a person. Check out his full podcast and all our other wonderful guests.

    Well hello there, it's lovely to see you again, thanks for stopping by. It's always a pleasure to have new returning and new visitors to our show. On this week's podcast, we have a fantastic local artist who has been blazing his own trail for nearly 2 decades. Please welcome to the podcast, Steven Cox.

    A guest that we had tried to have on the podcast before and technical difficulties made us unable to publish his podcast, so we are incredibly grateful to have him back and sit down with us. Steven shared his initial artistic loves and how he eventually migrated to being a hip hop beat maker and lyricist. He was definitely happy to talk about his challenges and how he has been able to push through them.

    Steven is such an awesome guest, and a really good sport. Being part of the OBC, he quickly established himself as a creative force, a truly gifted artist. Make sure you check out his podcast and all of our other amazing guests we have had on!

    Well hello there, it's lovely to see you again, thanks for stopping by. It's always a pleasure to have new returning and new visitors to our show. On this week's podcast, we have a fantastic up-and-coming artist who is blazing his own trail. Please welcome to the podcast, Shane Arthur Watts aka SAW.

    SAW approached us via Facebook and asked if we would have him on as a guest and, being the easy-going team that we are, we said of course and invited him on. WELL, what a roller coaster! SAW has seen and done a lot in his time and has lived a life that most of us can't even fathom. Through all the challenges he went through, he has come out the other side a champ and, with help from former guest Maggie Coco, SAW is a recording artist and is making music his way and it's awesome

    Shane was such a cool and genuine person with a very unique look but like so many of our former guests, he has heart and spirit and fire so we had a great time talking with him. Make sure you check out his podcast and all of our other amazing guests we have had on!
