    How did band  Thin Lizzy get their name  👀💡 Thin Lizzy are an Irish rock band formed in Dublin in 1969, led for most of their career by charismatic bassist, singer, and songwriter Phil Lynott. photo from web The rock band Thin Lizzy got their name from "Tin Lizzie," a robot character in the British comic magazine The Dandy, with "Thin" changed as a playful nod to the Dublin accent. Original guitarist Eric Bell suggested the name "Tin Lizzie" after the robot character from the children's comic. The band changed "Tin" to "Thin" because people in Dublin often pronounce the word "thin" to sound like "t'in".  Thin Lizzy No Irish band in the 1970s made a mark like Thin Lizzy. The charismatic creative force of Phil Lynott was actually born in England, but his Irish accent revealed his roots and he inspired not only many Irish bands - including U2 - but many British heavy metal acts.Eric Bell and Eric Wrixon, who had played with Them, met Lynott and drummer Brian Downey playing in Dublin

 Spoiler alert: This post is super NERDY, proceed at your own risk 😊If you thought mathematicians were only good for splitting the bar bill or failing high schoolers, think twice. Turns out the biggest geeks in class have spent centuries messing around with music, but with fractal music, they took things to another level. There's no broken-heart inspiration here; it's pure equations turned into rhythm.What on earth is a fractal?A fractal is a geometric figure that repeats itself all the way to infinity. If you zoom in on a corner, it looks exactly like the full image. Think of a head of broccoli: if you snap off a tiny floret, it looks like a miniature head of broccoli. Nature is full of them, from snowflakes to ferns.And how does music fit into this?Simple: it translates those infinite-repetition formulas into notes, rhythms, and melodies.Instead of composing by ear, a mathematician takes a numerical pattern and sets up rules: "every time the equation outputs a 2, play a C; when it g

The album represented a step forward from her two previous works: while Tuesday Night Music Club had stood out for its narrative ability and its successor, Sheryl Crow, for a sound closer to 1970s rock, in The Globe Sessions the singer was much more personal and confessional.

 How Red Bull went from selling energy drinks to building a full-on music empire with the Red Bull Music Academy, Red Bull Studios, and Batalla de los Gallos.  When you think of Red Bull, a red bull, a silver can, and some dude skydiving from the edge of space probably come to mind right away. But the brand’s real magic doesn't just happen up in the air or on the racetrack; they’ve nailed it big time inside the music industry. Instead of shoehorning their logo into someone else’s concert, they decided to build their own sound empire from scratch. And not like a pushy sponsor, but as a real ally to the scene.From the Can to the StageThe Secret SauceBack in the late '90s, when most brands were just paying to hang banners with their names at festivals, Red Bull asked themselves: "What if we create a spot where musicians can come learn and collaborate?"That’s how the Red Bull Music Academy was born in 1998. For two decades, it brought together young talent and music legends in different ci

   One-Hit Wonder Song Two Princes by Spin Doctors "Two Princes" is a 1993 hit  from their debut album, Pocket Full of Kryptonite. by American rock group Spin Doctors, peaking at #7 on the Billboard Hot 100.
