So here's the interview portion of our broadcast.
After working at MTV, I learned very quickly how
rare it is to encounter an artist that had talent
AND a presence....an ease in conversation that
makes them approachable and inspires an attachment
from the audience. Does it help that she and I are
already good friends....of course! But I've watched
Bibis maneuver crowds, and interact with strangers
as if they were old friends.
She is the real deal, folks.
Come to town and look her up. Or go to your local
venues and request that they book her. We are a community
here on this little blog.
Lets make our girl a household name!
Thanks for the kind words. They mean so much to all of us!
xoxo

Thank you so much for sharing that with us Hilarie & Bibis. It was a nice start to my day 🙂
Here you are, still keeping us in the loop, and it means so much to me. I'm really happy that there is all this new talent for us to be introduced too. And Bibis was a wonderful addition to the Southern Gothic team. You two truly are wonderful people.
Thank You,
Maygen

Thank you very much for sharing!
It’s kind of funny, Maygen said it was a nice way to start her day, but here, it’s end of Thursday.
So glad to have you with us Bibis! Can’t wait to here more from you.
I absolutely love your hair Miss Hilarie! I wasn’t sure if it was different in the vlog where you and Nick first introduced Bibis, due to the lighting, but it looks really beautiful. 🙂
Love from Guam

I am beyond excited to hear what you guys come up with! I’m sure you’ll have a blast in the studio! Bibis is fantastic so I’m sure it’s going to be amazing.
April 23, 2009 at 12:38 pm |
Looking forward to hearing more!
April 23, 2009 at 1:52 pm |
I love the vlog, so great to see and hear from you guys! Your so candid and engaging.
I stumbled across SoGoPro earlier this week and LOVE it! I am on here everyday just to see what’s new. I grew up in NC so am very familiar with Wilmington.
Thanks for this!
(Hilarie, love the hair too)

April 23, 2009 at 1:53 pm |
I’m glad that you guys are going to record some music. I look forward to hearing more this new project.
BTW Hilarie, the new hair color looks awsome!
April 23, 2009 at 2:02 pm |
Thank you for sharing Bibis with us. I can’t wait to hear what you guys record. I also can’t wait to come to town and find out when and if Bibis is playing cause I totally want to check it out.

Oh Lord. I guarantee you my mother has four Allman Brothers cds in her car right now and My dad had Wilson Pickett in the truck. That’s what I listened to on the way to church for 18 years haha.
I think it’s great what you guys and Bibis are doing. She has such an incredible talent and I cannot wait to hear more.
Thanks again guys for sharing and caring.
Oh and facebook yesterday was all about Bibis- Ten of my friends at least had her video posted sharing the love. 🙂

What a great talent and so special to be able to do what you love and have someone recognize you and want to help you get noticed.
That is the one thing I love about this blog. It started off trying to get the word out about Pedestrian and the Wilmington film industry but along the way has reached out to help others display their talents.
Great job, guys (&gal). Keep promoting because we are all here watching.

Yes, please trick Bibis into doing some more singing for us! At least until that EP gets out! Thanks for the vlog.

Well, I am def going to look her up while being in Wilmington this coming June. And I can tell ya, I am not, repeating, NOT going to leave that town until I have heard Bibis sing 🙂 That’s a promise 😉
April 23, 2009 at 3:32 pm |
Another note — there are a bunch of great “saloons” in Boston that love to play new music and local bands especially places like “The Skellig” in Waltham, Kinvara Pub” in Allston, the Middle East in Cambridge or The Paradise in Boston. We love to go see live music although I am sure that if you were to try and get her a gig here it would be more effective than anyone.
Also – the House of Blues is also a great place and I could put in a good word since I do know someone there. Let me know if you are interested at all.

I’ve only posted a few comments so far- but I’ve mentioned before I’m a music business major… as such as are encouraged to look for up and coming artists and see what we can do to help out!
I am also in the Boston area currently, and will absolutely use my knowledge and try to help Bibis get her name out around here.
Perhaps when more is released to work with from this lovely lady, I can work a little harder to get some of music biz folks to get the word out and get Bibis some gigs!!
(Aside from being an aspiring music supervisor of some kind, I am so way into marketing and promotional work- so this is going to be fun 🙂
Take Care! And Keep it up!

Loved the vlog and getting to know Bibis a little more. I’m so excited to hear more from her.
Echoing Becca on the facebook thing. I had a hell of a time trying to get the video up; I’m not the most patient person and by the time I was done I had posted it over a dozen times haha. Guess I was a little too enthusiastic about spreading the word about Bibis haha.
Thank you for sharing!
April 23, 2009 at 3:56 pm |
I am loving Bibis more and more. You are guys awesome!
I am definitely looking forward to hearing some more music from this creative genius… and I’m so glad she is a part of the Pedestrian team.
Portland OR has a ton of great places to play. So, if you’re interested in coming to the west coast… I can spread the Bibis love and see if they would be interested in letting you play.
Sharing is caring!

I always love learning about new artists! It’s like my hobby. Bibis your music is awesome. What a great name! I love it! I also love how you guys didn’t listen to the radio…. I hate the radio I stay as far away from it as possible. I grew up listening to oldies and stuff that wasn’t mainstream. That’s what really influenced me as a musician and as a sound designer. I can’t wait to hear more stuff! Enjoy being in the studio. That is my favorite part. I mean come on having to go into “work” and listen to music all day long, what a terrible way to live (kidding of course)
Best of Luck,
Liz

Yay! Bibis is going to do music for Pedestrian! A cover? Hilarie got all whispery-ish when she mentioned that part so it makes me more intrigued. Hmmm. Would love to hear more. I just love that you are keeping us all up to date on things.

April 23, 2009 at 6:20 pm |
Bibis – you are too cute.
Please keep us in the loop with her future SUCCESS!
Also, like Niamh said, If I request Bibis to play in the UK will you please bring her over??
I’ll be spreading the word about Bibis talent over the pond 🙂
April 23, 2009 at 6:35 pm |
I can’t wait to hear the songs you’re gonna record 😀
And thanks for sharing this with us. I come here everyday, and it’s a real pleasure to see your new vidéo. Thanks again 🙂

Can’t wait for Pedestrian, hurry up all ready! =)
April 23, 2009 at 6:50 pm |
I cannot wait to hear more from Bibis. You are an amazing artist!
Also, if she goes in the studio soon, will we be able to buy CDs? I would love to buy a few, for myself and others!
Thank you for this interview; Hilarie, you didn’t lose your MTV skills 🙂

Loved the video blog Hilarie and Bibis! You girls are so awesome 🙂 Can't wait to hear more!!
I'm going back to Wilmington in July and am really excited to hopefully get to see Bibis play live! Definitely spent last night checking out the songs posted on her Myspace pages while I was "doing" work hehe
❤
April 24, 2009 at 5:51 am |
Eric Clapton is amazing! I too grew up with the classic rock, driving around with my dad in his classic cars, I loved it.
I think Im with Dani on this one, really hoping to see Bibis in Wilmington in June! Thanks for this interview! I enjoy hearing about artists background. You both are great! I cant wait to hear more from Bibis!!
April 24, 2009 at 9:48 am |
I really enjoyed the interview. It’s always nice to find out something about an artist’s life and story. Can’t wait to hear the music for Pedestrian.
I’d really like to see Bibis live, but I don’t think she’s coming to Italy anytime soon 😦
April 24, 2009 at 2:42 pm |
Nice interview! Its always great to hear backstorys. REALLY Looking forward to hearing more music from Bibis!! 😀
April 24, 2009 at 4:50 pm |
Thank you Hilarie and Bibis for another great vlog. Although Hilaire, you are also what you describe Bibis as: how you interact with strangers as if they were old friends.
Btw, love the new hair colour Hilarie! 🙂
April 24, 2009 at 6:22 pm |
Hilarie should get her own music talk show. She’s a great interviewer. Anyhow, I can’t wait to hear Bibis’ EP. She has a beautiful voice.
