Jetty road

Far Away Places

Far Away Places is the new album from Jetty Road - Country Music Awards of Australias 2010 Group of the Year. Set for release on June 28, 2011, the new album is an amalgamation of its Aussie origins and its Canadian influences that have become so instrumental in the bands success in North America. Far Away Places features co-writes from Canadian country super stars including, Jason McCoy, The Higgins and others. The songs on Far Away Places capture stories from the bands ongoing adventures to Canada to classic country themes such as dreaming big, heart ache and letting loose. Serves You Right is a sassy track about a two-timer who gets a dose of bad karma for his cheating ways. Wrong is a traditionally spirited love song sung in tandem with Canadian country crooner, George Canyon. Im a Dreamer is about knowing what you want and dreaming big to get it. And, Welcome to The Party is co-written with country rocker Jason McCoy sure to become an anthem for country music lovers who love to party! For the past three years, Jetty Road has taken the Canadian country music industry by storm. The band has played the main stages of the biggest festivals in Canada (Big Valley Jamboree, Havelock Jamboree, Dauphins Countryfest and more!) plus showcased at the CCMA in Edmonton and the BCCMA in Vancouver. Country radio has also embraced the band. Its official first single, Let it Out, off Far Away Places hit the top 50 on the Mediabase country chart last summer and stayed in the top 100 through 2010 and early 2011 an impressive feat for an independent, international group. Now on the On Ramp Records roster, Jetty Road is poised to go places it has never gone before with release of its new album Far Away Places.

Media: Lisa Saunders (Sound Strategy Music) Marketing: Tony Tarleton File under: Country

Portraits: A Tribute To The Great Women Of Song

Pop icon, OLIVIA NEWTON-JOHN, celebrates legendary women singers. Take a moment to reflect with OLIVIA as she honors and recalls how her life was inspired by the songs and artists of Portraits. This CD was born out of love and respect for these singers and their songs - it pays tribute to some of the women who inspired, delighted and influenced me in the formative years of my career, or touched my life in some way. I have wanted to record this CD for many years. In five magical days, at Indigo Recording Studios, in the remote hills of Malibu, I recorded this CD with Phil Ramone at the helm. It fell into place quickly - like it was meant to be. Each song has a distinct place and wonderful memory attached to it and I am forever grateful to the artists, the writers, the musicians and the producers for the wonderful feast of music that helped form my musical tastes and touched my heart. -Olivia Newton-John

little Foot long Foot Oh, Hell

Country-tinged, bluesy rock-with-bite, toe tapping, feet stamping, dance party. Torontos Little Foot Long Foot was born out of necessity and practicality. Following the release of their EP Just About Broke (recorded by The Arkells Tim Oxford), Joan Smith (vocals, guitar) and Isaac Klein (drums) gained success through college radio, multiple best of lists, and built up a reputation as the next awesome Toronto two-piece (twowaymonologues. com). Little Foot Long Foot then released their full length album, Harsh Words, to scads of rave reviews. With this momentum they crisscrossed Canada, killing it all over with their huge sound and love of cute animals. Little Foot Long Foot have now added to their hugeness with the addition of organist and vocalist, Caitlin Dacey and have recently completed a new full length record called Oh, Hell with Sir Ian Blurton at the knobs and in the beard. Look for its EMI Music Canada release on June 28, 2011.

Summer in the park

Various Artists
Summer In The Park, the fourth release in EMI Classics bestselling In The Park series, offers a collection of timeless recordings that celebrate the sounds of those hot summer days and cool summer nights. Opening with the majesty of Grofs Grand Canyon Suite, the collection then takes the listener on a summer days journey filled with the lazily-drifting rhythms of Debussys En Bateau, the elegance of Saint-Sans The Swan, the skittering playfulness of Mussorgskys Ballet of the Unhatched Chicks, before ending with serene stillness of Arvo Prts extraordinary Spiegel im Spiegel.

david daniels A Quiet Thing

One of David Daniels great passions is to explore repertoire not necessarily associated with the countertenor voice. He also really likes to sing with guitar. The result is a program of songs that David performs regularly in recital, ranging from gems by Dowland and Purcell to American classics like Beautiful Dreamer and the title song, John Kanders A Quiet Thing. Leading Australian guitarist Craig Ogden has made the arrangements and accompanies David in a collection designed to be very intimate, and full of beautiful words and melodies.
