Bucks County Bytes introduces local musical artist Birksmith,  who I had the pleasure to meet a few years ago. My first introduction to Brandon, aka, Birksmith was this unique and compassionate soul who believed so wholeheartedly in his music as he writes from his heart and experience...heartbreak, trauma and so much more as his music comes to life through the experiences he has gone through. I met him on Halloween those few years back and we talked music, life, and compassion....and a hug to end it and I felt the life in him and the drive that goes into the music he produces!
Listen to Birksmith and I promise you the same feeling listening to the lyrics, the beat of the song, and the love he has to give to his music and the team he has with him as he continues to write, produce, and record outstanding tracks.
Birksmith works hard and continues to write the music he feels as his latest release, "Baked, Buzzed, Broken" is available on Spotify, iTunes, and many more!
Make sure to subscribe, share, and like Birksmith!!

I had Lindsay come on to BCB and talk about the family business as she is a fourth-generation Vandegrift running her appliance and service store in New Britain, PA. Only a short distance out of Doylestown, her grandfather and grandmother ran started the business in 1936.
I am happy to say that I've been friends with the Vandegrift's for a few years and knowing the family has been wonderful! They are the most fun and loving family and have hundreds of connections throughout Bucks County!
Their appliances range from coffee systems to cooktops, ranges, and grilles, refrigerators, ovens, and so much more! They service all the products that they sell to their customers and have been awarded excellence for many, many years!
Come have a listen to Lindsay as she talks about family, business, and the pandemic of 2020. And a few dog barks to add to our wonderful conversation.  It's only fitting as we are both dog-friendly families!
