The Artist Spotlight- Oddfellas

Oddfellas from Pampa, Texas were featured today in The Artist Spotlight.

​The Pampa, Texas-based band Oddfeallas were featured today for The Artist Spotlight with their song, "Walk On By." 

I had a chance to interview lead singer Drake Fisher last week and he told me he wrote the song about him and his wife. He said it's a love song, but not a typical "lovey dovey" fairy tale song. Drake said the song started off with him at home playing his acoustic guitar. 

If you missed the song earlier, take a listen to it below:


You can take a listen to the interview I had with Drake below as well. 


 

Nikki "Nikilicious" Montgomery

I'm a Central Wisconsin girl born and raised. I grew up in Port Edwards and participated in cheerleading, basketball, volleyball and softball as well as many clubs like National Honor Society, SADD, yearbook and forensics. I was a very busy high school student and still managed to get good enough grades to go to college at UW-Stevens Point where I was just as busy between working 3 jobs including executive staff positions at the campus alternative rock radio station and volunteering at the campus television station.

After graduation I thought I would take my BA in Mass Communications with emphasis in Broadcasting and Journalism and Minor in Political Science and become a big time reporter in some major city. But instead my internship with our news station here at Midwest Communications turned into a part-time job and opened the door to the morning show co-host position at WDEZ. After 9 1/4 years of fun in the mornings I was promoted to Assistant Brand Manager and moved to The Workday Getaway.

I couldn't deny my love for rock anymore! It was time dive head first into the genre I spent my formative years listening to day in and day out. When the opportunity arose for me to become the Brand Manager for Rock 94.7 and host the morning show I couldn't pass it up.

I'm so happy that I stayed in Central Wisconsin I couldn't imagine raising my three daughters anywhere else.
