Allen B. Skye @mstdn.social I started my microblogging ‘career’ as a liberal troll on Twitter to mess with the conservative pundits & their sycophants. It’s time to (mostly) retire that part of this persona. I’m here to learn & have good conversations. #dodgers #broncos #lakers #liberal #altcountry #americana
@ladodger34 Mastodon & Lemmy cross-posting is still a little wonky, so here's the link for the review (courtesy of @verdantsquare).

It appears that there are still some bugs in boosting stuff from Lemmy.
@ladodger34 Replying to get more reach in the broader Fediverse. Wyatt Flores has a very cool sound. Check him out!
@DonWeaver @ladodger34 Wow, it’s a damned good cover.
@ladodger34 Replying to boost this into the fediverse at large.
Colter Wall is a gem. #americana #Music #altcountry.
@ladodger34 Rhiannon Giddens’ PBS show “My Music with Rhiannon Giddens” impressed the hell out of me. I had no idea that she was so damned talented. Her and Jason Isbell together is gold! #americana #altcountry
@ladodger34 To boost this into greater reach, Molly Tuttle is fantastic. #altcountry #americana
@americana To all the folks in the Lemmy group, I apologize. I was testing out the whole “follow” and “post” thing from Mastodon.
For all you (https://mstdn.social/tags/americana) and (https://mstdn.social/tags/altcountry) fans, you can follow the Americana (https://mstdn.social/tags/Lemmy) group
For all you #americana and #altcountry fans, you can follow the Americana #Lemmy group on #mastodon that I started way back when the #reddit migration started.
Just follow @americana
Like anything in the #fediverse, you’ll probably only see posts made after you follow the group.
@americana If you’re still onboard the JWH train at this point, you can toss me a vote in the Opening Act contest here: https://theopenact.com/2023/john-ward-hocter. You can vote free each day, or you can make a donation to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention and get one vote per dollar donated. Honestly I don’t have much of a chance to win but it is a worthy cause and I’d appreciate your vote.
Thanks for reading/listening/voting!
JWH
@americana Look me up on Spotify (https://sptfy.com/OsrY), Apple, Amazon or wherever you listen. I released a song called “Damn Near Died Today” that was named a Finalist in the 2023 Great American Song Contest. Let me know what you think.
If you like what you hear, I have a new single coming out August 4 called “Ain’t Heaven Yet” you can pre-save here: https://ditto.fm/aint-heaven-yet.

Hey y’all! I’m John Ward Hocter, a Reddit refugee and independent songwriter trying to spread the word about my music. I used to post my music in various subreddits, but now I’m in tune with the Fediverse.
If you’re interested in checking out some traditional country, Americana, and bluegrass style music, here’s what I got going on right now.
@margaretgarigan @gardening I’ve grown bushels upon bushels of gorgeous heirloom tomatoes in the last 10 years, but I’ve never been able to get more than a handful of romas each year.
