Templeton showcases the writing skills of Michael Charles Dirksen, who having played with various bands since the early 90’s, has built up a catalogue of songs that stretches far and wide. From playing with punk outfits, to folk music, exploring jazz, reggae and classical composers, Michael has slowly moulded his sound into what he likes to call “ambient rock”.
Having completed the construction of a recording studio, Templeton is free to dive deeper into the musical abyss and to see what’s on the other side. No live performances are scheduled yet, but the self titled album (Templeton) is available on all major music sites.

6. Featured Blog on Zoxsy's "The List" Consult Your Inner Manager - By Lynn Harrison As an independent artist, sometimes I wish I had a manager.
I imagine her as a kind, wise, competent and courageous person, who always has my best interests at heart. She'd be a whiz at the administrative tasks I hate, and she'd intuitively know which projects and decisions are most important right now.
Most of all, she'd believe in me and the value of my work, even when nothing particularly successful seems to be going on. My manager would be patient, hopeful and matter-of-fact. She'd definitely have a good sense of humour.
From time-to-time, I ask people to help out with various tasks...and I truly appreciate their assistance. Still, nobody has emerged yet as that perfect take-care-of-everything sort of person.
Fortunately, I already have an Inner Manager....

"Greetings-- I've joined up on the Zoxsy bandwagon, and am wondering whether I can make the request to add a genre of experimental? Seems like more and more folks are using that label these days, and it just might help out many artists for whom it is a very appropriate label. Thanks!"
