• Name? Jack Phantom
• Where you're from? Metro Atlanta, Georgia area
• What your favorite genre of music is? Cool Jazz (Brubeck, Davis, etc.)
• What you're currently listening to? Yusef Lateef
• Favorite feature of the Pandora service? Undecided/Love it all

Jazz artist on here - a unique blend of West Coast, cinematic influences, and noir. Currently working on the 2nd album. The first one is on here, feel free to look for it under "Jack Phantom And The Exquisite Corpse Cabaret". Christmas single cancelled when our recording guy literally closed up shop and retired, leading to having to build a studio to work in. "Death Poem" is set to be released Summer/Fall 2020, but will have more money, more polish, and more supporting merch behind it.

[ErickPandora]

@JackPhantom Thanks for taking the time to share a bit about yourself and your music with the Community! 

Thanks for sharing Yusef Lateef too! I am listening to Hikima - Creativity right now and am loving how unique it is. 🎷

I cannot wait to hear what your new album sounds like! You have an eager fan in waiting for "Death Poem" in me. 👍

[JackPhantom]

You got it!

I'll be keeping you posted!

[Aquatica1000]

• Name?  Call me Aqua, most of my friends do anyways.
• Where you're from?  Closest city to me is the Big Easy.  Any more detail than that I'm not comfortable disclosing.
• What your favorite genre of music is?  Mainly Rock, with some supplemental Pop.  My pop picks tends to be on the alternative or emo side, with lots of Fall Out Boy, Panic! At The Disco, and NateWantsToBattle.  As for rock, my faves tends to be on the orchestral or electronic side, with Starset, Red and Evanescence topping the list.  Some J-Rock and K-pop sometimes sneak in too, on account of me being a total anime fan.
• What you're currently listening to?  Against the Current.  I've been a fan of theirs long before they signed onto Fueled by Ramen, and I'm sort of proud of them doing so well.  ^-^
• Favorite feature of the Pandora service?  You guys group music by sound rather than merely genre.  When I listened to the Jeff Williams station on iHeart Radio (The RWBY soundtrack is an absolute jam, check it out if you can), it'd give me a lot of cinematic movie soundtracks, and never really played a lot of my favorites from him.  On here, I get lots of Panic at the Disco and Fall Out Boy, which fit the artist's style a lot better.  There's also a wider amount of available music from my favorites here compared to iHeart Radio.

[Raelove]

Hi...I'm Raelove from a small town in southern Maine (USA). I've been a lover of New Age music since I first discovered it during my college years (1989-1996). Back then, it was Enya. Now, I am amazed at all the music there is now in this genre. Right now, I'm listening to "Northern Sky." Although I love other types of music...rock, jazz, pop, classical...I play New Age as a background to my days. I listen to Pandora here and streaming on my TV. I love it.
