Description:

"It will do your heart good, do your spirits good, do your life good to come out and check them out and see this joyous music." --Taj Mahal on NPR's

Morning Edition, talking about the Carolina Chocolate Drops The Carolina Chocolate Drops are as much about revelation as revival. On its Nonesuch debut, Genuine Negro Jig, the trio brings exuberance, humor, virtuosity and an infectious acoustic groove to its exploration of a near-forgotten brand of banjo-driven string-band music originating more than a century ago in the foothills of , the Piedmont region where band members and Justin Robinson were raised. In this rural area, musicians, both black and white, once shared and swapped tunes. Over the decades, the importance of the African-American role in string-band music was diminished, its sound and significance co-opted by minstrel shows and segregated by record labels. CCD -- under the tutelage of nonagenarian fiddler player Joe Thompson, one of the last surviving Piedmont musicians - have reclaimed the old-time songs, making them vital and fresh for right now, reasserting in the process the African roots of the banjo.

The Carolina Chocolate Drops have won over crowds at the Newport Folk Festival, on such National Public Radio shows as Mountain Stage and A Prairie Home Companion, and on tours through Europe. Denzel Washington personally selected the trio to appear in his critically acclaimed 2007 directorial effort, The Great Debaters. In a review of a CCD Kennedy Center performance, declared, "Their set was anything but academic...these instrument-swapping residents of Durham, N.C., kept the audience active with speedy strumming, jug-blowing and percussion via carved hand-held bones and foot-banging syncopation." The Boston Globe concurred: "The acoustic trio - banjo, fiddle, guitar - managed the minor miracle of evoking a sepia- drenched era of mountain music... Giddens, Robinson and , all multi- instrumentalists and vocalists, conveyed their knowledge with a sense of reverence and studied antiquity- including their simple, era-appropriate costumes - and a contagious, abundant joy."

After two self-recorded independent releases, CCD chose to work with producer Joe Henry on Genuine Negro Jig. As with his production on 's The Bright Mississippi, Henry emphasizes simplicity, clarity, interaction; with its striking lack of studio frills, the emphasis is on the spirit of these performances, which are often as intense as they are exhilarating. Uptempo numbers like -show favorite "Cornbread and Butterbeans" and "Sandy Boys" are immediate standouts, though slow-burning, moody tracks like "Kissin' and Cussin'" and "Snowden's Jig (Genuine Negro Jig)" prove to be downright haunting. The versatile Giddens performs the Celtic-style balladry of "Reynadine" acapella; she's equally convincing taking lead on a brilliant recasting of the 2001 Blu Cantrell R&B-dance hit, "Hit ‘Em Up Style " Genuine Negro Jig starts out with the specific but winds up with the universal; this is music that has literally traveled continents and centuries to achieve a brand new relevance, a shared history still in the making.

ARTIST & INFO Hometown: North Carolina and Arizona

Nonesuch Records has signed North Carolina-based trio the Carolina Chocolate Drops, a young string band in the centuries-old Piedmont banjo and fiddle musical tradition. The group's members-Dom Flemons, Rhiannon Giddens, and Justin Robinson-all trade duties as singers and swap instruments, too.

Old-time Southern string music is often associated with Caucasian musicians from Appalachia, not African-Americans from the North Carolina Piedmont. But as Giddens pointed out in a recent NPR interview, "It seems that two things get left out of the history books. One, that there was string band music in the Piedmont, period. And that ... black folk was such a huge part of string tradition." Carolina Chocolate Drops seek to not only correct this misunderstanding, but to keep the old-time string music tradition alive.

The group was formed after Flemons, Giddens, and Robinson met at the Black Banjo Gathering in Boone, NC. They have learned that tradition under the tutelage of Joe Thompson-who at age 90 is believed to be the last living performer from the Piedmont string band heyday. Their repertoire is centered around the traditional music of the early twentieth century but also includes original material as well as a show-stopping cover of Blu Cantrell's 2001 single "Hit ‘Em Up Style."

The members of Carolina Chocolate Drops come from diverse musical backgrounds. Born and raised in Phoenix, Arizona, Dom Flemons has immersed himself in music of the past, with a prodigious record collection and an immense knowledge of the different playing styles of the , country, and string band traditions. His influences include Ma Rainey, , and the Band. As a part of the Carolina Chocolate Drops, Flemons uses his harmonicas for additional melody, and his jug and guitar root the band's rhythm.

Rhiannon Giddens, a Piedmont native, grew up with of bluegrass from one side of her family and classic blues and records on the other. After graduating the Oberlin Conservatory, she fell into contra dancing and became inspired by the Roundpeak-style old time bands she heard at the dances. She worked extra jobs to buy her first banjo and fiddle, and hasn't looked back since. Giddens' style is heavily influenced by the playing of Joe and Odell Thompson. She also calls contra and social dances, and is working on playing and calling simultaneously.

Justin Robinson is the group's main fiddler and also plays banjo. He grew up in a house full of musicians-his mother is a classically trained opera singer and cellist, his sister a classical pianist, and his grandfather a harmonica player. Robinson played classical violin from the age of nine. Besides Piedmont string band music, he also is interested in Revolutionary War music, and fife and drum tradition of African Americans in the Deep South.

ALBUM FACTS Genre: Rock Description: The album features the 24-member cast accompanied by Green Day, marking another incredible collaboration between the band and the musical. Based on Green Day’s chart-topping 2004 album American Idiot, the musical and the cast recording include every song from American Idiot, as well as several songs from the band’s GRAMMY® Award-winning current album 21st Century Breakdown.

Green Day’s singer/guitarist Billie Joe Armstrong, bassist Mike Dirnt, and drummer Tré Cool wrote the electrifying score to the show, which follows the exhilarating journey of a new generation of young Americans as they strive to find meaning in a post-9/11 world. Armstrong wrote the lyrics and co-wrote the book with the show’s director, Tony Award winner Michael Mayer (Spring Awakening). The album’s arrangements and orchestration were done by Tony Award-winning composer Tom Kitt (Next to Normal), who is the show’s music supervisor, orchestrator and music arranger. Armstrong is the album’s producer. The album features the entire Broadway cast, including Tony Award winner John Gallagher, Jr. as “Johnny”, Tony Vincent as “St. Jimmy,” Stark Sands as “Tunny,” Michael Esper as “Will,” Rebecca Naomi Jones as “Whatsername,” Christina Sajous as “Extraordinary Girl,” and Mary Faber as “Heather.” The show is choreographed by Olivier Award-winning Steven Hoggett (Black Watch) and Carmel Dean is the Music Director.

ARTIST & INFO Hometown: Oakland, Band Members: Billie Joe Armstrong, Mike Dirnt, Tré Cool Childhood friends Billie Joe Armstrong (guitar, vocals) and Mike Dirnt (bass) formed their first band, Sweet Children, in Rodeo, California when they were 14 years old. By 1989, the newly renamed Green Day independently released their first EP, 1,000 Hours, which was well-received in the punk . Soon, the group had signed a contract with the local independent label, Lookout! Records. 39/Smooth, Green Day's first album, was released later that year. Shortly after its release, the band found their permanent drummer, Tre Cool.

Throughout the early '90s, Green Day continued to cultivate a cult following, which only gained strength with the release of their second album, 1992's Kerplunk. The underground success led to a wave of interest from major record labels; and the band eventually signed with Reprise.

Description: Their ninth offering, Korn III -Remember Who You Are, is their first effort for brand new label home, Roadrunner Records, and it bursts at the seams with that very feeling that defined the band from the get-go. Each song unleashes an uneasiness reminiscent of Korn's earliest and most unbridled material, but there's also a modern refinement that's epic in its execution. Korn definitely don't lose sight of their roots on Remember Who You Are, but they also venture into uncharted darkness. All that truly matters is where they're going. The album strikes a balance between their past and their future, as it finds the band reuniting with producer Ross Robinson, who manned the boards for their first two records, all the while joining forces with Roadrunner Records, the world's leading rock label. With Korn III - Remember Who You Are, it's their time...

"This time we really wanted to focus on the songwriting and make sure all the songs were great so no matter where on the AVAILABLE MERCH disc you are you can tell it's an album instead of a bunch of songs that are thrown together, you know?" Kirch explains. From unexpectedly dark pop gems like "Inside Of You" to nostalgic summertime ballads like "Growing Up," each track on Black & White defies categorization yet still retains the signature sound that has endeared The Maine to fans around the world.

ARTIST & INFO Hometown: Tempe, AZ Band Members: John O'Callahan (Vocals), Kennedy Brock (Guitar), Jared Monaco (Guitar), Polaroid T-Shirt White Garrett Nickelsen (Bass), Pat Kirch (Drums) Get ready to meet The Maine again for the first time. Admittedly you already know them as the band who blazed out of Phoenix, Arizona, two years ago with their breakthrough album Can't Stop, Won't Stop, which instantly established them as one of the most exciting young rock acts around. You probably also realize that tours with a diverse roster of artists such as , and 3OH!3 as well as a slot co-headlining last year's Alternative Press Tour quickly followed and each step forward forced this group of teenagers to grow up quickly in the face of success. However few people would be able to anticipate how effectively the band would be able to harness that maturity Dynamic Vinyl T-Shirt White on their sophomore full-length release and major label debut Black & White.

ALBUM FACTS 06/05/10 Sleep Train Pavilion At Genre: Pop Producers: Kenneth Mount, Shane Stoner, , Dave Siegel, J.R. Rotem, Zack Odom, Jon Brown Concord Radio Formats: Top 40, Hot AC Concord, CA Description: The Ready Set's debut album I'm Alive, I'm Dreaming, reflects the extent of this wunderkind's abilities - he 06/06/10 plays every instrument on the record, synthesizing a lifetime of influences into one remarkably diverse album. "I hate Cricket Wireless buying a twelve-song CD and having twelve of the same songs," Witzigreuter laments. "So I made sure no one song on Amphitheatre my album sounds like any other. There's pop stuff, techno, rock - there's everything." Chula Vista, CA

ARTIST & INFO Hometown: Fort Wayne, IN Band Members: Jordan Witzigreuter “All I’ve ever really wanted out of music is to just keep writing and touring and not to have to worry about living paycheck to paycheck,” explains Jordan Witzigreuter, the force behind the mammoth pop sound of The Ready Set. “You know, to just keep doing what I’ve been doing since I was in high school.”

Raised in Fort Wayne, Indiana, the twenty-year-old singer spent his early adolescence locked in his bedroom methodically analyzing stacks of CDs. By his mid-teens, he’d started writing songs and booking his own shows under the moniker The Ready Set. “My last name gives people trouble,” the singer says with a laugh. “So I kinda needed a band name even for my solo stuff.” Witzigreuter’s epic, super melodic tracks, including an early version of the explosive first single “Love Like Woe,” made their way to bassist , who took one listen and promptly made The Ready Set the first signing to his newly-formed Decaydance Records/Sire Records joint venture.

Houston-based production duo, Beanz N Kornbread, are credited with the majority of the tracks not produced by Travis, including lead single "I'm on Patron", a lyrical documentary of a feeling that most of us have experienced - and greatly regretted the next day - that of simply having too much fun of the liquid variety. "I'm On Patron" is the perfect accompaniment to that 'blame it on the alcohol' kind of night and sure to be a party staple.

ARTIST & INFO Hometown: Houston, TX Band Members: Paul Wall

Always an advocate for the Texas music scene, Paul Wall was recently tapped as President of The Recording Academy's Texas Chapter. In this role, he hopes to educate and enlist the help of Texas musicians from every genre, to ensure that the state is well represented in the Grammy's voting body. The natural politician in Paul Wall makes him the perfect candidate for this role. He embodies his moniker, "."

With two #1 album debuts, a Platinum plaque and a Grammy nomination under his belt, not to mention having some of the hottest celebs in the nation rocking his signature diamond-encrusted grills at one point or another, Paul Wall is the embodiment of the Hip Hop success story. His journey began humbly enough as a promoter for hometown indie label, SwishaHouse, and culminated with him being largely instrumental in the growth of the Houston rap movement and its rise into the national arena.

There have been a total of 7 albums since then and the journey continues with no sign of slowing down. Ten years in and Paul Wall remains in the game and in the hearts of the people. Without question, he truly has ‘The Heart of a Champion.'

ALBUM FACTS Genre: Rap/Hip Hop Radio Formats: Urban Focus Markets: Houston, Dallas, Los Angeles, Atlanta, Washington D.C., Cleveland, Chicago, Phoenix, Seattle - Tacoma, Detroit Description: Fresh off a month-long tour with former partner-in-rhyme, Chamillionaire, Houston rapper, Paul Wall, is all set to drop his 4th major label album, Heart of a Champion, on June 29th through SwishaHouse/Asylum Records. Almost half of the tracks featured on the album are produced by long-time friend and Expensive Taste band-mate, Travis Barker.

Feature duties for Heart of a Champion include a diverse list of cast members including Jim Jones, Yelawolf and Raekwon, but do not ignore Paul's Houston roots; Bun B, Chamillionaire, Slim Thug, Devin the Dude and Lil' Keke each get their turn at the mic. Another Houston feature is Johnny Dang aka TV Johnny with whom Paul Wall shares a grills and jewelry business which caters to A-list celebrities and average Joes alike.

The album will also feature several songs from Expensive Taste, the group which includes Skinhead Rob (Transplants) in addition to Paul and Travis. Houston-based production duo, Beanz N Kornbread, are credited with the majority of the tracks not produced by Travis, including lead single "I'm on Patron", a lyrical documentary of a feeling that most of us have experienced - and greatly regretted the next day - that of simply having too much fun of the liquid variety.

ARTIST & INFO Hometown: Cincinnati, OH Foxy Shazam's music is an unhinged, maniacal mix of , guitar, howling vocals, double-kickdrum percussion, and rock & roll theatrics. The quintet hails from Cincinnati, OH, where bandmates Eric Nally (vocals), Loren Turner (guitar), Daisy (bass), Sky White (piano), and Joe Halberstadt (drums) first joined forces.

Citing influences as varied as Marvin Gaye, Elton John, Van Morrison, Iggy Pop and "Born To Run"-era Bruce Springsteen, Foxy Shazam has been creating unique, genre-defying music since they formed in 2004. Foxy Shazam released their last album, Introducing , in January 2008 on venerable indie label Ferret Music and have been taking their good times mobile ever since. Foxy have been touring constantly all over the US, playing in venues and bars and basements. This commitment has paid off: their notorious live show is a thing of beauty and has won them a dedicated cult of followers. The self-titled Foxy Shazam is their debut album for Sire Records.
