Piano and All That Jazz Releases Something New Under The Sun

San Francisco, CA. March 6, 2009. Something New Under The Sun is the first release for record label Piano and All That Jazz. The album, featuring lyricist/vocalist Mark Stevens and composer/pianist Steven Cravis, is scheduled for release on March 6, 2009, coinciding with The Faith of Britain Day when millions of people across the globe will unite in prayer and meditation simultaneously for two minutes at 11:00 AM Greenwich time.

Mark Stevens and Steven Cravis reside in San Francisco and met in a piano retail store where Stevens worked as a salesman. With little discussion they agreed to collaborate, the result being fourteen original music compositions and song lyrics comprising Something New Under The Sun. The song “Father” tells of a grown man’s desire to express his love for his parent. “Tears of Joy” is a powerful anthem extolling the virtues of a nation. “Snowfall Sunrise” proclaims the beauty and majesty of nature in its most harsh season. Stevens’ frank vocals and Cravis’ subtle pianism are a compelling tandem throughout the compilation. The lyrics are flush with refinement. This album is a blessing unto humankind and destined to become a classic.

Piano and All That Jazz is a record label headquartered in San Francisco, CA. Something New Under The Sun, the label’s first release, is available for purchase exclusively at iTunes

These guys wail, blending old-school riffs with radio-friendly chops. Plus, they’ve got the best female drummer this side of Meg White. Wait a sec, Meg White sucks." -New York Press http://www.blood-red-sun.com Darrin James Band Brooklyn, NY Darrin's songwriting has a narrative quality that draws us into his world through detailed imagery and captivates us in his mood.  Darrin's voice is expressive and unique, rough-around-the-edges and gravelly like a world-weary everyman that is somehow tragic but wise, heartbroken but funny. Musically, Darrin's love of American blues and roots music shines through proudly as he draws from a diverse palette of musical styles of the past to create original music that is interesting in its depth and diversity. http://www.darrinjames.com edibleRed New York, NY Led by firecracker front woman Collette McLafferty, edibleRed is an eclectic New York City-based five-piece collective of atypical musicians.  The memorable songs the band creates can be heard on their debut CD, Welcome to My Bad Behavior, slated for release on the day of the press conference May 22 on veteran indie label Select Records. http://www.ediblered.com Emiko New York, NY Indulging a rare breed of rock n’roll of the biggest kind, Emiko is a sensitive and introspective songwriter. Notwithstanding, this girl lives up to the rock legends as a trailblazer who sings, plays keys, takes her own solos, and is unafraid to say what others only dare to think. Having played piano since she was two and half, Emiko has transformed from classical pianist prodigy to rock and roll starlet. http://www.emikomusic.com Ill Phil Carnage Staten Island, NY A native of Brooklyn (NYC) who now resides in Staten Island (NYC), after college Phil started the independent label Suga' Shack Ent.  He is inspired by early nineties rap and heavy rock influences, but rhymes up to par with today's standards.  Phil has "in-your-face" adrenaline driven anthems with chanting hooks, and punch lines.  Amongst the boasting lyrics, however, are innovative songs with meaning that fans can relate to.  Phil is always writing and thrives on competition with the "freestyle" and "battle" capabilities of the "backpacking" emcees, but he is a true-to-form studio artist.  He is a true voice of Middle America, controversial lyrics with a character, look, and style perfect for commercial marketability. http://www.illphilcarnage.com Kyle Lardner New York, NY Although Kyle is just a teenager, she is an incredibly insightful composer/performer. She wrote every song you hear on her album on the piano. With the help of her producer Alan Plotkin he was able to craft her sound into many different genres.  This pop, rock and folk. The album was mastered by Greg Calbi (John Lennon, Billy Joel etc.). http://www.kylemusic.biz Leiana Philadelphia, PA The female-fronted, Philadelphia-based band of seasoned musicians has a rapidly growing fan base in the hardcore and skatepunk worlds. Leiana's music is the result of the collaboration between the sultry underground vocalist Leiana and veteran musician Chuck Treece.  Leiana - produced/co-written by Chuck Treece (Bad Brains, Urge Overkill, Billy Joel, The Roots) The music industry may be more dominated than ever by soulless mega-corporations, but the DIY spirit of bands like Leiana is still alive and definitely still kicking. http://www.leiana.com Lez Zeppelin New York, NY Lez Zeppelin, the New York City-based all-girl, all-Zeppelin quartet, is set to release its self-titled debut album on July 10, 2007, with a nationwide and European tour planned in support of the new record. Since forming in 2004, Lez Zeppelin has gained unanimous critical acclaim as one of the most exciting live acts around, becoming the first female rock act to pay homage to Led Zeppelin and to garner rave reviews across the board. The album was recorded with legendary producer/engineer Eddie Kramer, best known for his work with Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, and KISS; and was mastered by George Marino, who with Jimmy Page digitally remastered all of the original Led Zeppelin recording. http://www.lezzeppelin.com Stratospheerius New York, NY Stratospheerius is the bastard child of Frank Zappa, Mahavishnu Orchestra, and Blues Traveler. Lead by electric violinist/vocalist/mandolinist Joe Deninzon, the band has showcased their "psychojazz trip funk" at colleges, festivals, and clubs throughout the US. Their live performances are filled with funky dance grooves, rip-roaring guitar/violin jams, and hooks that mix jazz, funk, and world beat. The group was a winner in the John Lennon Songwriting Competition, won the Online People’s Choice Awards in the Cornucopia Festival, and was named “Best Jam Band” in Musician’s Atlas Independent Music Awards. http://www.stratospheerius.com Telesma Baltimore, MD Blending ancient and modern instrumentation and spirit, Baltimore-based Telesma bridges the gap between primal and futuristic, setting itself apart from other bands in the music scene with their intoxicating sound and extra-ordinary live performances.  Telesma's unique sound, that has been labeled "electro-acoustic psychedelic world dance music", is driven by the primal voices of the didgeridoo (one of the oldest instruments in the world, 40,000 years), the kubing (bamboo mouth harp), tribal drums and percussion, and the human voice. These elements are fused with modern instruments including keyboards, guitar, bass, theremin, samplers, modern drums, and the unique homemade "manDrum" to create a trance-like pulse not unlike that heard in modern electronic dance music. http://www.telesma.net Traedonya Bronx, NY The bride of new funk hip opera was born in Rocky Mount, NC , and was raised in the Bronx. In essence she is a country-city girl....a slice of both. Being raised by the funk and hip-hop, she has those influences in her music today. While in college, she was trained in the genre of jazz by some greats at the New School of Social Research in NYC. This cross section of cultures and music has allowed her to be comfortable across musical genres and cultures. http://www.traedonya.com CONTACT & INFO http://www.arielpublicity.com http://www.bandletter.com PERMISSION & PRIVACY You have received this email because you "opted-in" and requested to receive Ariel Publicity's Band Letter or as a courtesy because you are a musician or a member of the music media.
