The city of Memphis is home to things of all shapes and sizes. This diversity means that there are plenty of companies to go along with. These employers are always looking for people to hire for the jobs they’re offering. Who are these employers/companies you ask? You can look all around the city to find them, but the top three to look at are FedEx, AutoZone, and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Jobs and their demand can be big factors in determining where you live in the area. Memphis houses for sale can also affect where you stay. FedEx FedEx is one of the largest companies in the world for logistics. They’ve got over 200,000 employees and six million vehicles! The company is huge and continues to grow every day. Of course, more growth leads to a demand for employees that can keep up with FedEx’s expansion. Not only will you have a well-paying job with FedEx, you’ll also have the opportunity to make someone’s day better. Imagine this, you’re dropping off that Christmas
Singer/Songwriter William Elvin release the follow up for
his indie album “The Musicalienation of William Elvin” last June 8 at the
Taumbayan Bar in Quezon City. The second album with 9 tracks is entitled
“Sacred/Profane/Mundane”.
Elvin is known as the songwriter for the theater musical
“Mula Sa Buwan” and was base in Hongkong for many years working in an
advertising company. His first home grown and independently produce album was
release in the late 2000’s, and from then he gains some following and tag as
poetic, soulful and propulsively melodic.
During the launch, Elvin said that he miss his indie roots,
and he don’t consider producing his album with the help of a major label, he
prefer to release it on his own style.
“The first thing I value as an artist is the freedom, even
If I could have talk to some people, but the music industry now is very much
different, parang if you don’t have a steady following na automatically bibili
ng gawa mo, di ka rin mabilis na masi-sign or ma-produce ka, that’s number 1.
Number 2 is I could have partner with some producers, but the thing is as
writer, as a artist, but I want the freedom of doing things without as much
voices outside as possible.” Elvin said.
Sacred/Profane/Mundane
is a collection of songs personally written by Elvin with the help of some
Filipino artist base in Hongkong, there are songs as a tribute to some friends
and mostly inspired by some sad stories. Elvin influences range from The
Beatles, Bob Dylan, David Bowie, The Smashing Pumpkins, Weezer and Ben Folds.
“I wrote my emotional songs when I’m sad, I think its normal for artist to be more inspired,
kumbaga mas may power minsan, mas powerful ang sadness, I get more inspired
from sad stories from other people, even its not my own experience, I find
power in sad stories.” Elvin explains.
