FOOTLOOSE Kenny Loggins 111 john street ++ suite 1620 ++ new york, NY 10038 For Immediate Contact: Justin Loeber (212) 260-7576 [email protected] For Reviewer Copies: Michelle Bayuk, Quarto Publishing Group USA 212-779-1809 [email protected] Brand New Kid’s Lyrics and Kid-Friendly Characters Inspired by The Number One Billboard Single and “Song of the Year” FOOTLOOSE By Grammy® Award Winner Kenny Loggins and Dean Pitchford Art by New York Times Best-Selling Illustrator Tim Bowers Kenny Loggins will be available for national and local in-studio interviews the week of Monday, October 17th in NYC and the week of Monday, October 24th in Los Angeles It’s been 32 years since “Footloose,” the 1985 Oscar® nominated and Grammy® Award-winning “Song of the Year,” hit the airwaves and graced movie screens—making it one of the most recognizable hits Kenny Loggins ever recorded, and one of the top 100 movie songs of the last 100 years. Now, the iconic pop anthem that dared you to “kick off your Sunday shoes,” takes on a brand new life of its own as a children’s book with new lyrics, entitled Footloose (Moondance Press, an imprint of Quarto Publishing Group USA, October 17, 2016; ISBN: 9781633221185; Price $17.95 US and $23.95 Canada; Hardcover) by Kenny Loggins, Music & Lyrics by Kenny Loggins and Dean Pitchford, and Illustrated by Tim Bowers. In this version of the classic we all love and remember, Footloose features a zoo-full of wolves in top hats and canes, llamas in their tutus, rhinos, snakes, cats, kangaroos, giraffes, cubs, monkeys and more— dressed in their dancing best—all ready to party by the light of the moon after the visitors leave and Mr. DJ Elephant pumps up the music! Also embedded in the book package is a new CD, including the new version of the song, recorded by Loggins, and a three song-medley of traditional songs. As grandparents, parents and kids relish the new lyric—but with the original music—there’s not a generation on this planet who hasn’t heard of—if not danced to—the iconic pop music anthem, “Footloose,” by Kenny Loggins and Dean Pitchford, who co-wrote the theme song after Pitchford asked Loggins to check out a screenplay for Pitchford’s as-yet- unmade picture by the same title. "I had a little up-tempo thing I'd been messing with that I probably wouldn't have written if it hadn't have been for the movie," says Kenny Loggins, who wrote two songs for the film as a favor to his friend, Dean…and shortly after “Footloose” was released, the song and the movie delivered big time: “Footloose” (the song) spent three weeks at number one, March 31—April 14, 1984, on the US Billboard Hot 100 and was the first of two number-one hits from the motion picture; Billboard ranked it as the No. 4 song for 1984. “Footloose” (the movie) hit the top 100 songs list when the American Film Institute released its AFI's 100 Years…100 Songs. Loggins and Pitchford won the Grammy Award for Song of the Year (1985). - over - - 2 - “Footloose” was covered by country music artist Blake Shelton for the 2011 remake of the 1984 film—30 years after the original. (Loggins and Shelton performed it together on the 45th Annual CMA awards). The song has also been parodied by "Weird Al" Yankovic ("Hooked on Polkas") and was made available as downloadable content for the Rock Band series. Kids Incorporated covered "Footloose" in 1984 in the Season One episode "Space Case," and PureNRG sang "Footloose" on their 2007 debut album PureNRG. “Footloose” was performed by the Season 2 cast of American Idol, and Kenny Loggins performed the song solo on Idol’s Season 14. In 2014, Loggins also performed the song on NBC-TV’s Today to commemorate the movie’s 30th anniversary. Loggins is no novice to reaching out to the kids’ market; he released his first children's album, Return to Pooh Corner, which remains the best-selling children's album of the last 20 years, with 1.3M albums sold to date. In 2013, Loggins was also the performer of the music for the critically acclaimed book Frosty the Snowman (Imagine Books/Charlesbridge). On the subject of the new kids’ book Footloose, says Loggins, “Now, as a grandfather of Phifer, and a dad who always sang with my kids, I’m totally psyched that Footloose has taken up a whole new persona with the new lyrics and characters. For those of us who remember the movie, you won’t have to kick off your Sunday shoes in this version of the song!” Also included in this book package is a CD, which includes the new version of the title and a three song medley. To set up a national and local TV, radio, print, and online interview with Kenny Loggins to coincide with the October 2016 launch of the book, please contact Justin Loeber at [email protected] or 212-260-7576. # # # About the Authors: Kenny Loggins has sold more than 25 million albums worldwide, has won two Grammy® Awards, and co-wrote the book The Unimaginable Life: Lessons Learned on the Path of Love.

You’re now releasing a children’s book based on your Grammy® Award-Winning song “Footloose.” What’s different between the story in the book and the story of the original song and 1984 movie? 2. The book is beautifully illustrated by NY Times best-selling illustrator Tim Bowers and its package includes a brand-new CD recording of the title song, along with other family-friendly tunes. We all understand how musicians collaborate; how do you work with an artist for a project like this? 3. How did the idea of basing the new version of the song to reflect animals come about? 4. What was it about the original song that has kept it high on the party list for almost every decade on the planet since 1984? 5. How did you become affiliated with the original “Footloose” film? At the time, did you think your title song was going to be Oscar® nominated and go on to win the 1985 Grammy for “Song of the Year”? 6. Are you still in touch with any of the cast of the film, including Kevin Bacon, or with Dean Pitchford, the screenwriter of the film and co-writer of the song? 7. How did you become known as the “King of the Movie Soundtracks,” and what other songs did you write for the screen? 8. You got your musical start as part of the duo of Loggins and Messina—created by Clive Davis. How did you get that break? 9. What is your most favorite recollection of working as a duo artist? 10. How did you have the courage to make the big break to become a solo artist? 11. Your music has been known at times as “Yacht Rock.” What is that style and what other artists/songs fall into that category? 12. Just when most artists think about retiring—or simply singing their hits over and over and around the country— you take a chance and start a new country band, called Blue Sky Riders. How many albums have you put out with the band, and why did you decide to go back to becoming a member of a group? 13. Footloose isn’t your first kids’ project. Can you tell us about the others? Is “Return to Pooh Corner” still available on CD? 14. You have five children, and are a grandfather of Phifer, a one year-old boy. How do you feel about growing older? 15.

  • Loggins and Messina
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE JUNE 1, 2009 BOULEVARD CASINO PRESENTS LOGGINS AND MESSINA LIVE AT THE RED ROBINSON SHOW THEATRE FRIDAY, OCTOBER 30 Coquitlam, BC – Over thirty-five years since Sittin’ In together, Kenny Loggins and Jimmy Messina are in the early stages of putting together a new tour that picks up where 2005’s highly successful “Sittin’ In Again” reunion tour left off. All this shared activity marks the unexpected and unlikely return of the most successful duo of the early 70’s … a group whose most enduring songs were so well crafted that they have never really gone away. At the same time, Loggins & Messina find themselves rebuilding the personal connection that was lost long ago. Though Loggins and Messina’s first Greatest Hits collection was called The Best Of Friends, both men confess that their relationship has long been a complex and sometimes difficult one. When they first met, Messina was already a well-established success story having produced and played with the legendary band, Buffalo Springfield and later with the country-rock pioneers, Poco. Loggins meanwhile was a young singer-songwriter with far less experience but with talent to burn as evidenced by early compositions like “House At Pooh Corner” and “Danny’s Song.” Then in 1971, Sittin’ In – originally envisioned as a one-off joint release intended to introduce Loggins as part of a Messina six-album production deal with Columbia Records – became a smash hit. So by public demand, this accidental duo was created and released such hits as “Your Mama Don’t Dance,” “Thinking of You,” “Angry Eyes,” “My Music” and “Watching The River Run.“ By 1977, the duo who had sold sixteen million albums and became one of rock’s most popular draws went their separate ways to pursue solo careers and it wasn’t until 2005 that they decided to reunite for a summer tour.
