Lisa Dames - Just a Housewife
Why do I think I'm cool? (I feel like I'm writing an essay for senior english.) I'm a 40 year old housewife trying to make a name for myself in a 20 year old world. That world being the music industry, country music to be more specific. I had my 2004 Toyota Sienna minivan wrapped with a picture of me. When I go through carpool all the kids yell, "That's Patti and Penny's Mom." The songs on my album are geared towards the Moms, not the kids. However, Stubborn is a favorite of my daughter's second grade class and Your Love is a favorite of my sixth grader and her friends. My husband's favorite is Takin' the Wheel. Mainly because he thinks that it means I'll drive and he can sleep. I've had some success nationally with secondary radio. First single Just Another Day went to #56 and the second single I'd Leave Me went to #39. The video for JAD debuted on nat'l TV, Great American Country and CMT added it to CMT.com CMT radio picked me as One to Watch for 2007. My music and I are featured in a promotion just launched in 36 Waffle House locations throughout North Carolina. The promotion begins with a series of radio commercials voiced by me that will air on local radio. Custom designed in-store signage promotes the availability of my current project No One Like Me, in local music outlets. Both the radio commercials and signage direct patrons to songs from the project that are featured on the restaurant chain's jukeboxes. Nationally, Waffle House is second only to Pizza Hut in the number of retail jukeboxes. You can read all of this and more at my website www.lisadames.com
