Hey all, my name is Lora but I'm representing Elzie B Hickerson [Pandora Artist Page] across all of his social channels and marketing efforts. He's a Red Dirt artist from Eastern Oklahoma with a sound that's a little Charlie Robison with a smattering of James Taylor's acoustic vibe, a little Pat Green (before he sold out to Nashville) with the lyricism of Bob Dylan, and a bit of Willie Nelson if he hung out with Jimmy Buffett back in the 60s. Personally, back in the day, I used to play seven different instruments and dreamed of making it big one day. I'm just now picking the guitar back up after a twenty-year hiatus. We are just now really getting to experiment with the AMP tools, but I find even without them Pandora's algorithm seems to have decoded the best place to serve Elzie's music compared to the rest of the DSPs so we have turned our attention more to Pandora than some of the others. I really wish they shared a bit more data with the artist, but I'm hopeful now that the issues with the AMP stats has been fixed that some of the black hole feeling will stabilize!
