<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">New York’s celebrated pop-rock group Joyous is releasing their debut album! The band formed in 2015 and features lead singer Joy Pratt, who is also the main songwriter, often humming bass lines into her husband & bassist Randy’s ear. Randy Pratt is best known for his work with The Lizards, Cactus and Ruffyunz.</font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">Joy and Randy write the lyrics together. When guitarist Pat Klein noticed the collection of catchy gems the married couple had assembled, he came on board without a second thought. Pat’s voice blends sweetly with Joy. Add perfect pop percussionist Phil Weiss and there was the Joyous sound!</font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">Pat, a world class engineer, and Randy, owner of a world class recording studio, assured the record’s quality (both were members of classic rock legends The Lizards). Pat’s knack for arranging put the finishing touches on this 43-minutes that sounds like a greatest hits collection.</font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">The band did a video themselves in their studio “on the cheap.” Next step is a big production video.</font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">Joy wrote a happy, feel-good record for a troubled world. With guest appearances from many of New York’s best players and singers, here it is!</font></div>

<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">Los Angeles, CA – Jay Aston, the driving force behind the indomitable, critically acclaimed rock outfit Jay Aston’s Gene Loves Jezebel, has once again summoned the essence of the group’s iconic sound with their latest studio album,<span> </span><i>X - Love Death Sorrow</i>. Released across all formats on December 1, the album represents a culmination of the band's collective artistry. With the steadfast collaboration of esteemed guitarist James Stevenson (renowned for his work with The Alarm, Gen X, The Cult) and seasoned bassist Peter Rizzo, along with the return of acclaimed producer Peter Walsh, known for his instrumental role in crafting the band's classic '80s albums,<span> </span><i>X - Love Death Sorrow</i><span> </span>delivers a compelling blend of original compositions and captivating cover songs. This latest offering stands as a testament to the band's enduring legacy and serves as one of the most formidable additions to their extensive discography.</font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">One of the most popular tracks on<i><span> </span>X</i>, “Serpent Queen,” is also one of the album’s darkest and most haunting. An original written by Aston and Rizzo, “Serpent Queen” draws inspiration from ancient depictions of dangerously enchanting females with such beguiling beauty that it threatens the very life of the unfortunate beholder. Appropriately, the band is releasing a lyric video for the track today, the day after Valentine’s Day, offering a bit of a contrast to the rosy depiction of love celebrated on that day. </font></div>

<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">But that's not all! Jay Aston’s Gene Loves Jezebel is thrilled to reveal a major announcement: they will be embarking on a cross-country US tour alongside The Alarm and Belouis Some, set to kick off in May. This highly anticipated tour promises to be a must-see event for fans of both bands, offering a unique opportunity to experience their electrifying live performances in venues across the nation.<span> </span><b>See below for ticket information or go to See<span> </span><a href="https://genelovesjezebel.co.uk/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://genelovesjezebel.co.uk/</a><span> </span>or<span> </span><a href="https://www.facebook.com/OfficialGeneLovesJezebel" target="_blank" rel="noopener">https://www.facebook.com/OfficialGeneLovesJezebel</a>:</b></font></div>

<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">There’s something very liberating about reaching 75 and discovering a whole new way of being creative. That is what has happened to premier guitar player Steve ‘Deacon’ Hunter this year.</font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">The last time Steve sang on any recording was back in 1977 when he released “Swept Away,” the song was called “Sea Sonata” and he was never really happy with it.</font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">But, after starting a new album at the beginning of 2023, he was working on an arrangement of “Back Door Man” when it crossed his mind that he could sing it, and that thought changed the direction of the whole album! </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">“The Deacon Speaks” now has him singing on eight tracks plus two instrumentals. Consisting of five covers and five original compositions, this is a bluesy, moody, vibe drenched collection with Hunter’s voice exuding a pinch of Dr John mixed with Tom Waits. A voice that, like his guitar playing, has character, insight and experience. His playing continues to shine with tone, dynamics, skill and above all, space. </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">Don’t let Steve’s incredible history in Rock and Roll with Lou Reed, Alice Cooper and Peter Gabriel mislead you, his love of Blues, both Classic and Contemporary, is still running through his veins. </font></div>

<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">Prog ensemble Circuline’s 2024 “C.O.R.E.” Virtual Tour began Friday, January 12th, 2024, and will consist of 57 events in 48 weeks, with Single releases, Lyric videos, Official videos, “Behind the Scenes” videos, and Livestream Q&A events where the band is able to connect with their fans around the world.</font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">Says keyboardist Andrew Colyer, “With this international virtual tour, we have two goals: 1.) We want to get our music exposed to as many people as possible, to continue to grow our fan base worldwide. 2.) We want to deepen our relationships with the fans who are the most passionate. Releasing singles, lyric videos, and Official Videos accomplishes the first goal, and by doing these in-depth, ‘Behind the Scenes’ videos, we accomplish the second goal. Packaging everything together into a single 12-month celebration of the new album will hopefully capture more attention for future opportunities for live performing and touring, with this fantastic new lineup. For this first Official Video for “Tempus Horribilis” since it’s the lead single off the album, we really wanted to present ourselves in a new way, as a reinvigorated band, with new members and a new sound. We simply wanted people to see who we have evolved into. Producing this cinematic performance music video was the best thing that we could think of, so that fans, industry professionals, booking agents, and festival promoters could see us in a new light.”</font></div>

<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">Says Andrew about the new video, “I had worked with Don Chaffin of DCity Productions twice before, with the progressive metal band Awaken. Don and his team are amazing, so I knew that they would do a great job of capturing our personalities, as well as the intensity of our music, and translate that with the editing into something cinematic that we could be proud of. We got the entire band here for a week in August 2023, and shot six Official Music Videos in five days! For this particular video, we chose to shoot outside in an industrial area, and it was super hot and sunny in the middle of the afternoon, and right when we were filming and sweating it out, a big storm appeared, with tons of wind and clouds, and we thought that nature was going to overtake us! Luckily it created a really dramatic background to go with the song and the music. The rest of the videos for this 2024 CORE Virtual Tour are being produced in other creative ways. We’ve had so much fun creating all of the videos for this Virtual Tour - we’ve been ‘on location; in train stations, on rivers, in parking lots, and on soundstage studios. This has been a lot of work, and a ton of fun! We hope the fans enjoy it. Please watch the videos, like, and comment! We want to hear from you - what do you think? If you like it, please share across your own social platforms. We hope to see you on the Livestream Q&A calls!”</font></div>

<div dir=""><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"><b>Badfinger Legend<span> </span><span class="il">Pete</span><span> </span><span class="il">Ham</span>’s Legacy Shines On With the Release of “Gwent Gardens”, February 23rd on Y&T Music</b><br/></font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">Nearly 50 years after his untimely passing at the age of 27,<span> </span><span class="il">Pete</span><span> </span><span class="il">Ham</span><span> </span>is still giving the world beautiful music.</font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">The iconic singer and guitarist for the beloved Welsh/English band Badfinger was a prolific songwriter. Released as a limited-edition CD from Y&T Music, “Gwent Gardens” includes 18 newly discovered home demos, many of them songs that were never recorded or released by either Badfinger or the group’s earlier incarnation, The Iveys. The album will also be available on all streaming services. </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">Recorded between 1966 and 1972 with guitar or piano accompaniment, the songs on “Gwent Gardens” are remarkably tuneful blueprints for what might have been. Often double tracking his vocals,<span> </span><span class="il">Pete</span><span> </span>also overdubbed additional instruments onto the tracks, fleshing out his vision for what the final Iveys or Badfinger tracks would sound like.</font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">The first act signed to the Beatles’ Apple Records label in 1968, Badfinger – through<span> </span><span class="il">Pete</span><span> </span><span class="il">Ham</span>’s songwriting brilliance – scored massive global hits with “Day After Day,” “No Matter What” and “Baby Blue.” Co-written by<span> </span><span class="il">Pete</span><span> </span>and his bandmate Tom Evans, “Without You” became an enduring classic, topping the charts in versions by Nilsson, Mariah Carey and others.</font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">Among the many gems on “Gwent Gardens” is<span> </span><span class="il">Pete</span>’s soulful solo demo for “Take it All,” which would become the opening track on Badfinger’s masterpiece, the 1971 “Straight Up,” produced by George Harrison and Todd Rundgren.</font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">Produced with the blessing of the<span> </span><span class="il">Pete</span><span> </span><span class="il">Ham</span><span> </span>Estate, the “Gwent Gardens” project began with the late Dan Matovina, the musicologist and historian whose book “Without You” is regarded as the definitive Badfinger biography.</font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">Matovina produced several albums of<span> </span><span class="il">Pete</span><span> </span><span class="il">Ham</span><span> </span>demos. Before his death in 2023, Matovina marveled to a close friend about the treasure trove of material still unreleased. “I can’t believe,” he said, “there are still so many great<span> </span><span class="il">Pete</span><span> </span><span class="il">Ham</span><span> </span>songs that no one has heard yet.” With the release of “Gwent Gardens,” those great songs referenced by Dan will now be a permanent part of<span> </span><span class="il">Pete</span><span> </span><span class="il">Ham</span>'s legacy.</font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4"> </font></div>
<div><font face="times new roman, serif" size="4">2023 also saw the release of a special<span> </span><span class="il">Pete</span><span> </span><span class="il">Ham</span><span> </span>tribute album, “Shine On – A Tribute to<span> </span><span class="il">Pete</span><span> </span><span class="il">Ham</span>.” The album featured 35 artists covering all of<span> </span><span class="il">Pete</span>’s compositions recorded by Badfinger. Among the artists paying tribute to<span> </span><span class="il">Pete</span><span> </span>are Shelby Lynne, Dan Baird, Melanie, Mary Lou Lord, Wreckless Eric & Amy Rigby, Dennis Diken, Stan Lynch & The Speaker Wars, Amy Allison and many more. The album benefited the Southeast Florida branch of Mental Health America and is still available for a limited time. <br/></font></div>
