  • Biography Mark Ronson Is an Internationally Renowned DJ and Five-Time-Grammy-Award-Winning and Golden Globe-Winning Artist and P
    Biography Mark Ronson is an internationally renowned DJ and five-time-Grammy-Award-winning and Golden Globe-winning artist and producer. Ronson spent the first eight years of his life growing up in London, England. Having played guitar and drums from an early age, it wasn't until moving to New York City following his parents’ divorce, that he discovered DJ culture. At age 16, and already a fan of artists like A Tribe Called Quest, Run DMC and the Beastie Boys, Ronson began listening to mixtapes released by various hip hop DJs. Inspired, Ronson confiscated his step-father's vinyl collection and tried his hand at mixing. It was the first step in a career highlighted by work on a multi Grammy-winning album by Amy Winehouse, as well as his own Grammy-winning, global smash hit with Bruno Mars, "Uptown Funk." In the late 1990s into the early 2000s, the New York club scene was percolating with booming hip-hop and glitzy R&B. Ronson quickly earned himself a reputation through stints on the decks in downtown clubs before becoming the DJ of choice for many noteworthy parties. Hip-hop mogul Sean "P. Diddy" Combs hired Ronson to DJ his fabled 29th birthday bash. These and other high-profile gigs boosted Ronson's profile and connected him with other artists, many of whom were interested in collaborating. His first production gig came from British soul singer Nikka Costa and he found that his experience of working a club crowd informed his production skills. Fusing his eclectic turntable skills with his knowledge of musical instruments and songwriting, Ronson soon embarked on his first solo record.

    “The musical sensation is changing how we hear – and feel – music with her talent, vision and mystique.” – Grammy.com Accumulating ten Grammy nominations and two wins in just two years, H.E.R. has proven herself as an R&B force to be reckoned with.

  • The Les Paul Foundation and Julien's Auctions Announce
    For Immediate Release: THE LES PAUL FOUNDATION AND JULIEN’S AUCTIONS ANNOUNCE AN UNPRECEDENTED AUCTION EVENT CELEBRATING THE LEGACY OF LES PAUL JULIEN’S AUCTIONS BEVERLY HILLS TO PRESENT AN ARRAY OF RARE AND UNIQUE GUITARS, EQUIPMENT AND PERSONAL EFFECTS FROM THE ESTATE OF THE FATHER OF THE ELECTRIC GUITAR, LES PAUL June 8-9, 2012 Beverly Hills, California – March 26, 2012 – Julien’s Auctions, the world’s premier entertainment and celebrity estate auction house and the Les Paul Foundation have partnered for an auction of extraordinary property and collection of guitars, equipment and musical artifacts from the legendary musician, engineer and inventor Les Paul. The auction event will take place on June 8-9, 2012 in honor of what would have been Paul’s 97th birthday. (June 9, 2012). Les Paul, born Lester Polfuss in Waukesha, Wisconsin in 1915, was on his way to making his mark on the history of 20th Century music at an early age. He was born with an inquisitive streak that he described as, “…curiosity and I got a double dose of it. I’ve never stopped trying to figure out what makes things work or how to make things work better.” It was this curiosity that spurred his lifelong quest to find the perfect sound in his instruments, recordings and performances. His efforts produced one of the first solid-body electric guitars, which went on to become one of the most widely played and recognized guitars in the world, the Gibson Les Paul. Paul not only revolutionized the sound of the electric guitar, but also the technology behind modern day sound recording.
