Old vets join forces for new 'Army'
By Doug Miller

· Visit Army of Anyone's official site

Richard Patrick made a name for himself in rock music by being the dynamic lead singer for the popular band Filter.

Lead guitarist Dean DeLeo and his younger brother, bassist and guitarist Robert, did the same in the huge 1990s act Stone Temple Pilots.

With all that experience on the radio and in sold-out arenas under their belts, one might think these veterans of the industry have gotten crusty and jaded, but when they talk about their new venture, Army of Anyone, they bristle with newborn energy and pressure-free enthusiasm for their craft.

Despite the title of his debut solo album, the singer-songwriter and guitarist known as William Tell can't be held down, not when it comes to breaking out of seemingly comfortable situations to test the waters of independence.

Tell, whose melodic pop sensibilities come from a childhood soundtrack laden with Beach Boys and Beatles songs, had what many aspiring musicians would call the break of a lifetime when he joined the successful alt-pop group Something Corporate.

Two forces join together for fun
By Doug Miller

When Inara George and Greg Kurstin were working together on George's solo debut, All Rise, in 2005, they discovered a mutual affection for jazz standards and the soothing tropical sounds of Brazilian music of the 1960s.

Fast forward a few years and you have the bird and the bee, the side project for both accomplished musicians that has become a full-time job, a major label project, and a high-profile touring gig that will reach levels of recognition that most bands never get to.

Paul Williams is coming to rehearsals.com

2007-01-16T17:08:00.000-08:00

Paul Williams is coming to rehearsals.com and you can be a part of the audience.

Williams is responsible for a number of enduring pop hits from the 1970s, including "(Just an) Old Fashioned Love Song", a U.S. top-ten hit for the band Three Dog Night in late 1971, and a number of Carpenters hits, most notably "We've Only Just Begun", which has since become a cover-band standard and de rigueur for weddings throughout North America. An early collaboration with Roger Nichols, "Someday Man", was covered by The Monkees (in which he also auditioned for but did not make it) on a 1969 single, and was the first Monkees' release not published by Screen Gems.

A frequent cowriter of Williams was musician Kenneth Ascher; their songs together included the popular children's favorite "The Rainbow Connection", sung by Kermit the Frog in The Muppet Movie. Most recently, he collaborated with Scissor Sisters on their sophomore album, Ta-Dah.

Felix Cavaliere - Bio

Felix Cavaliere was born Nov. 29, 1942 in Pelham NY. His mother was a Pharmacist and his father was a Dentist. His mother wanted only the best for her only son, and had dreams of him becoming a classical pianist. To reach this goal, Felix was instructed in piano 3 times a week from the time he was 6 years old until his mother passed away when he was 14. Felix's musical influences started to take hold in the form of idolizing the music of Ray Charles among others. He started his first band called The Stereos while in his teens during which time he began to perfect his vocal abilities. He also discovered the Hammond organ around this time and was mesmerized by it's sound. The Hammond later became Felix's own "trademark sound" along with his unique and soulful voice.

Felix was encouraged to attend Syracuse University where he studied Medicine. But rather than study, he continued singing and playing in his band. He left Syracuse after two years to form The Escorts. He then moved to New York City receiving his first professional job as a backup musician for Sandy Scott and later Joey Dee and the Starlighters.

Early in 1965, Felix formed the Young Rascals along with Dino Danelli, Eddie Brigati and Gene Cornish. On October 28, 1965 The Rascals performed at The Phone Booth, a club in the "discotheque district" of Manhattan's East Side. Their high-energy set attracted the attention of Sid Bernstein, and the group was signed with Atlantic Records. Before they knew it, they began releasing records.

From 1965 through 1969, the Rascals were one of the best selling groups on the Pop charts featuring Felix-sung hits such as "Good Lovin'," "Groovin'," "A Girl Like You," "A Beautiful Morning," and "People Got to Be Free." As the hecktic sixties evolved so did the Rascals' sound, from blue-eyed soul (a term coined to describe The Rascals) to pop psychedelia and jazz fusion. Felix sang lead on most of the tracks, while Eddie sang lead on their ballads. The Rascals' biggest hit, "People Got to Be Free," was co-written by Felix and Eddie as an impassioned response to the assassinations of Sen. Robert F. Kennedy and Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. It topped the charts for five weeks in 1968 and inspired a follow-up single, "A Ray of Hope." At this juncture, the Rascals began focusing on albums instead of singles. Their more experimental, elongated approach resulted in records like Freedom Suite, a double album from 1969. By the early Seventies, the Rascals had evolved into an impressionistic jazz-rock outfit and moved from Atlantic to Columbia Records.

The band continued to record sans Brigati and Cornish from 1971-1972 with the release of their final album Island Of Real.

Felix's first solo album was simply entitled Felix Cavaliere. Released in 1974, it was a collaborative effort with Todd Rundgren offering some great tracks and two singles “A High Price To Pay” b/w “Mountain Man” and “Everlasting Love” b/w “Future Train.”

1975 found the release of the LP, Destiny and the single "Never Felt Love Before” b/w “Love Came." Ex Rascal Dino Danelli along with and Lesley West and Buzz Feiten are featured on the album.

By 1977 Felix joined the group Treasure and released an album of the same name.

Felix was back as a solo with the 1979 Castles In The Air LP. Three singles came from this album "Castles In The Air” b/w “Outside Your Window," "Only A Lonely Heart Sees” b/w “You Turned Me Around," and "Good To Have Love Back” b/w “Dancin' The Night Away." There was a fair bit of a "disco feel" to some of the songs here, but, hey, it was 1979!! The album featured Luther Vandross on background vocals as well as the return of ex-Rascal brothers Eddie & David Brigati.

1994 had the release of Dreams In Motion. This concept/themed album illustrates the hopes, dreams, ups and downs of love. Felix's daughters Christina, Laura and Aria Cavaliere sing backup along with helming as co-producer with Felix. The single for this CD was Don Was"If Not For You” b/w “Stay In Love."

1995 had Felix invited on to a rare trip around the US and Japan, touring with Ringo Starr and his Third All-Starr Band, which featured Mark Farner, Billy Preston, Mark Rivera, Randy Bachman and Zak Starkey. Felix is featured singing "People Got To Be Free" on the Blockbuster Exclusive CD, recorded Live in Japan. A pleasant time was guarnteed to all.

In 1997, Felix Cavaliere along with the former members of the Rascals were inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame, the highest recognition a band/musician can receive. Felix is in good company with Hall Of Fame inductees Elvis Presley, The Beatles, The Rolling Stones and Chuck Berry among other greats!

Felix continues to ride high on the wave of rock superstardom and his group Felix Cavaliere’s Rascals is reputed to he one of the hottest rock bands touring today. With Mike Severs on guitar and vocals, Vinnie Santoro on drums and vocals and Mark Prentice holding down bass and vocals, the sound remains true to the source and leader’s vision.

Felix Cavaliere resides in Nashville, Tennessee where he continues to record, write and produce, when not perform to adoring audiences throughout the world.

E-Merging Artist Beth Hart to Rehearse and Record New Disc Exclusively at CenterStaging

2006-12-14T13:31:00.000-08:00

E-Merging Artist Beth Hart to Rehearse and Record New Disc Exclusively at CenterStaging

CenterStaging Corp. (CNSC.ob) - Committed to the development of "E-merging" talent, rehearsals.com has announced that Independent rocker Beth Hart will record her latest work exclusively at CenterStaging and will be the first artist to be profiled on the site with an in-depth, behind-the-scenes exploration of the entire recording process.

CenterStaging's foray into recording full-length albums began earlier this year with their groundbreaking debut of The New Cars' "It's Alive," which captured the remodeled, turbo-charged '80s hit makers performing live before a studio audience. But the state-of-the-art studio will go the extra mile with Beth Hart, not only documenting the polished final product of the powerhouse vocalist's new full-length album, but also providing an intimate look into the entire project from start to finish.

"Beth Hart is one of the early believers of what rehearsals.com can do in showcasing talent to a worldwide fan base, said Tommy Nast, Executive Vice President, Business Development, CenterStaging. "As we believe she has one of the greatest God-given voices, we are truly ecstatic to work creatively with her and helm her new material. We want the industry to know that we will be making more recording models like this available to emerging artists!"

Known for her expressive vocals, Beth Hart has worked with some of the biggest names in rock. The singer's explosive stage presence and raw emotional flair was already in evidence on her 1996 Atlantic Records debut Immortal, which featured superstar producers David Foster, Hugh Padgham and Mike Clink, and the 1999 sophomore follow-up, "Screamin' For My Supper, which contained the smash hit single "L.A. Song," a Top 5 chartbuster in the U.S. Her third album, Leave The Light On, further cemented Hart's reputation as a hard-rocking, soulful star and caught the attention of none other than guitar god Jeff Beck. The axe-slinging rock legend hand-picked Hart to appear as special guest vocalist during his sold-out U.S. Spring Tour 2006, the first time in many years that Beck brought a singer into his live band.

rehearsals.com features both established and "E-merging" talent, with a current line-up that includes Grammy-nominated artists Imogen Heap (Best New Artist), Tom Petty (Best Solo Rock Vocal Performance & Best Rock Album) and the Pussycat Dolls (Best Pop Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal).

Red Letter: "Hot 100 Unsigned Artists" in Southern California

2006-12-11T13:23:00.000-08:00

Congrats to Red Letter!

In the current issue of Music Connection, Red Letter has been named one of 2006's "Hot 100 Unsigned Artists" in Southern California. In this same issue, you will also find a live review of a recent Red Letter show which calls us "haunting, mesmerizing and curiously irresistible" and goes on to describe our songs in the following manner:

"Perfectly structured and beautifully arranged, the music has an epic feel, emphasized by big pop choruses. But, it's also eccentric with unusual chord progressions that produce mood changes amid atmospheric excursions." (Bernard Baur)

How nice is that?! You can see for yourself at http://musicconnection.com/currentissue/clubreviews/clubreviews.lcgi

'SNL' rehearsals may appear on Internet

2006-11-30T16:37:00.000-08:00

'SNL' rehearsals may appear on Internet
LOS ANGELES, Nov. 30 (UPI) -- NBC reportedly is considering broadcasting the Friday night rehearsals of "Saturday Night Live" in New York on the Internet.
NBC Universal exec George Kliavkoff revealed the online possibility Wednesday at the Digital Entertainment Media & Marketing Excellence conference in Los Angeles and added the dry runs can prove equally as entertaining as the finished product, the Hollywood Reporter said.
"Sometimes it's a lot more interesting than the show," Kliavkoff said at the entertainment conference. "It's something we watch on the cameras at '30 Rock.'"
The NBC chief digital officer, who came over from Major League Baseball three months ago, expanded on the promotional concept by claiming the network plans on using online resources to improve programming.
"We see the Internet as our new A and R (the music industry term for talent scouting -- artists and repertory)," he added. "We're out there scouting. The good stuff bubbles up to the top."
