What do you get when you put Vandross, Pendergrass & Downing’s Sound Together? Randy Wilson!



Randy Wilson's highly anticipated new album "Up Close and Personal" is available as of September7 at CD Baby (CD's and downloads). Wilson raised the level of his presence with the preceding single "Life Goes On" which was released in July to delight of R&B fans across the internet and across the globe.

Singer/songwriter Wilson, has often been criticized in the past as sounding too much like the amazing Luther Vandross, which, while a top notch compliment; he felt that he could still sound true to his voice which sounds like the amazing Vandross but could certainly add his own signature sound as well. Now, having developed his own personalized sound, Randy Wilson is poised and ready to step onto the music scene in a big way.

Judge for yourself, here’s a link to the single “Life Goes On”

Cutting Edge Alternative Rockers “Left Standing” Release New Album “A Brand New Day”




www.LeftStanding.com


Sin City’s newest rock sensation – Left Standing has released their latest album: “A Brand New Day”. The band, assembled out of the bright lights of Las Vegas, is comprised of five very talented musicians – 3 of which are brothers so they are mighty tight: Danny Pino (lead vocals), Chris Pino (bass, vocals), Beau Stewart (guitar, vocals), Jesse Pino (guitar, vocals), and Zak Weidle(drums). They are a group that knows no boundaries and whose apparent mission is to entertain their audience.

This act puts their mark on several different styles, making each their own. Definably a rock act, they also venture into pop, alternative, punk and even a little blues. the quintet’s latest full-length CD, "A Brand New Day", infectious sing-along choruses, soaring guitar melodies and fist-pumping rhythms ensure listeners won’t be shaking these songs from their heads for days. Listening to songs such as the heart-on-sleeve ballad “Jeremy,” the righteous “32 Years” and the anthemic title track, "Brand New Day" Left Standing’s songs feel familiar from the first listen because the songwriting is so good, but with radio-ready fare like “Brand New Day” balanced with hard-charging numbers such as opening track “Revolution.” Left Standing will have you shouting along to the high heavens before you even have a chance to question why or how.

You can listen to them at Whotune.com where the Band recently competed with 125 other bands and won the Whotune.com music competition, raking in the #1 Grand Prize. You can get their digital EP download on their website at:
