For Immediate Release: HUGH LAURIE HITS THE ROAD IN MAY FOR WEST COAST TOUR IN SUPPORT OF CURRENT ALBUM DIDN’T IT RAIN March 24th, 2014 — Globally acclaimed recording artist, actor and performer, Hugh Laurie, has announced he will hit the road for a west coast theater tour in May in support of his current album, DIDN’T IT RAIN, released by Warner Bros. Records in August 2013. Laurie will be joined by The Copper Bottom Band, which is David Piltch (bass), Vincent Henry (horns), Elizabeth Lea (trombone), Jean McClain (vocals), and Gaby Moreno (vocals) – and is completed by Herman Matthews (drums) and Mark Goldenberg (guitar). DIDN’T IT RAIN is Laurie’s second album and the follow-up to his celebrated 2011 debut album LET THEM TALK, a New Orleans blues-driven celebration that included guest vocals from Irma Thomas, Allen Toussaint, and Tom Jones. For DIDN’T IT RAIN, Laurie follows the trajectory of the blues upstream into the American heartland. It includes songs dating back to early pioneers W.C. Handy (“St Louis Blues”) and Jelly Roll Morton (“I Hate A Man Like You”) to more recent artists such as Dr. John (“Wild Honey”) and Alan Price of The Animals (“Changes”). Produced by LET THEM TALK producer Joe Henry (Allen Toussaint, Bonnie Raitt, Billy Bragg), DIDN’T IT RAIN was recorded at Ocean Way Studio in Los Angeles. A commanding front man and lovable raconteur backed by a positively astounding band of world class musicians and vocalists, Hugh Laurie and The Copper Bottom Band present an unforgettable evening of music not to be missed: “The care with which he selected the songs gathered here, and the relaxed verve of the performances, makes it clear what it is that Laurie loves. Thoroughly Engaging.” – The Boston Globe “For all his fame, accomplishments and polymathic talents, Hugh Laurie’s got the blues, inside him and around him. No wonder he is, against type and against the odds, rather good at it.” -- Telegraph Magazine / London Don’t miss Hugh Laurie with The Copper Bottom Band on tour this spring.

Frink, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2016 Ornette Coleman (1930-2015) is frequently referred to as not only a great visionary in jazz music but as also the father of the jazz avant-garde movement. As such, his work has been a topic of discussion for nearly five decades among jazz theorists, musicians, scholars and aficionados. While this music was once controversial and divisive, it eventually found a wealth of supporters within the artistic community and has been incorporated into the jazz narrative and canon. Coleman’s musical practices found their greatest acceptance among the following generations of improvisers who embraced the message of “free jazz” as a natural evolution in style.

Download Press Release for Kirk Fischer's CD
For Immediate Release The Tremendous Debut of friends To Be Released Independently By Accomplished Pianist Dr. Kirk Fischer On February 20, 2017 Kirk Fischer friends Produced By Grammy and Emmy Nominee Trumpeter Greg Adams Performed By Members of East Bay Soul January 17 2017- Austin, Texas. In what is a culmination of a life’s journey constantly intertwining with music - a passion that returned with the aptly named CD friends by Kirk Fischer. The gathering of 10 songs hand picked by the artist is a mix of original and classic pop songs produced by legendary arranger and trumpeter Greg Adams and founder of East Bay Soul. What started out to be something for my “used-to–was” box Fischer notes, started with a song concept sent to Greg to take a listen. The reply was “Chart It!” The vision of recording 4 songs just to say he played with some former Tower of Power members and current East Bay Soul horn players like Greg and Lee Thornburg was set in motion. The ideas just started to flow when Greg says. “You have East Bay Soul at your disposal” … Holy Moly. The melodic “Friends” title track - infused with a Latin beat with layers of percussion and full orchestra takes the listener to the warmth of swaying palm trees. “Dis ‘Sup”, the first single penned with Adams - is this True Funk Soldier’s response to Greg Adams’ “Sup With That.” features a driving riff with a wicked drum and bass tracks that provides the backbone for Greg Adams’ signature horns and soaring strings.

A fight broke out and the barrel got knocked over with flaming kerosene all over the wooden floor. “It looked like a river of fire, so I ran outside. But when I got on the outside, I realized I left my guitar inside.” B.B. Said he then raced back inside to save the cheap Gibson L-30 acoustic he was playing …and nearly lost his life!

Meshell Ndegeocello Meshell Ndegeocello
MESHELL NDEGEOCELLO NNNewNewewew album : «: « Weather » out on the 8th of November Biography by Romain Grossman Meshell has changed. So has her music. It’s more peaceful, freer. Her new album, Weather, cloaks itself in the colours of autumn, full of in-between shades and hues and with a certain mildness to it. The singer has let her feelings carry her along. Meshell has never been scared of sharing her most intimate thoughts in explicit or colourful terms that always come from the heart. As ever, she is true to herself. But Weather ’s folk sensibility and pregnant acoustic melodies make this a supremely accessible album. “For a long time I was at war with everyone else. I dug my heels in, I fought hard. That’s all over now. I have my opinions, but they’re no longer a source of conflict with the rest of the world.” On Weather Meshell’s usually deep vocals slip into a register more like a whisper, sharing secrets about subjects that are straightforward, almost light-hearted. She has pared down her style to something like pop. “I started to write this album on the guitar and you can hear it. The final atmosphere’s gentler.” And then the singer agreed without fuss to put her fate in the hands of a producer. Joe Henry (Ani DiFranco, Bettye Lavette, Allen Toussaint, etc.) helped her reveal a different side to herself. And Meshell went along with this. “I’ve known him since the Bitter album; Craig Street introduced us. I hadn’t called on someone from outside for several albums.

The duo is currently wrapping up a series of performances in the US before beginning their The Traveling Kind tour this fall. The Traveling Kind was selected as a First Listen by NPR Music, which said, “As they swap lines and leads between his reedy resilience and her gossamer vibrato, Harris and Crowell don’t just share the spotlight. They also share the weight of legacy, influence and lifelong artistic investment, bearing down when the emotional heft of a song calls for it, loosening up and growing playful when it doesn’t, and altogether lightening the load for each other.

A Creator's View of the Music Ecosystem and DMCA
A Creator’s View of the Music Ecosystem and DMCA Creating music that matters is more than just a labor of love – it takes all the joy, loss, courage, fear, and humanity that we have. But whether it’s a Platinum megahit or a lonely ballad written for just one heart, we are grateful for the chance to share our stories and our truth. We see much to celebrate in today’s music landscape – including vibrant digital services that help fans connect with the songs they love. But we also see profound obstacles facing young artists and songwriters hoping to find their voice and build a sustainable career. One of the biggest hurdles is an outdated and ineffective law called the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. Many big tech companies have figured out how to game this law – hiding behind its sweeping immunities while earning billions off of our work. Meanwhile, too many working artists, musicians, songwriters, and producers are left to fight for digital scraps. Thanks to the DMCA, a single video service has swallowed up almost every other form of listening, while paying among the lowest royalties in the business – rates it extracts from creators who have no effective way to keep unlicensed copies off the service if they refuse. The DMCA leaves creators at the mercy of rogue websites that operate at the farthest reaches of US law – and beyond – and offers no meaningful way to hold repeat offenders to account. And forces us to stand by helpless as billions of dollars in advertising is sold around illegal copies of our work.
