Rock & Pop
Akon
The mere act of surviving on a day to day basis is the foundation from which a true artist builds his craft. Multi-talented newcomer AKON is no exception to this rule. His dynamic debut album, TROUBLE, a collection of stirring songs, creatively reflects the ups and downs of the singer/songwriter/producer's life experiences.
Flo Rida
On the eve of the release of his eagerly awaited second album, Flo Rida has already made the most dominant return of any artist, ever. In just a year since his blockbuster debut, MAIL ON SUNDAY, was released, the Sunshine State rapper's new single, "Right Round," has easily made digital sales history.
Taking Back Sunday
TAKING BACK SUNDAY started with Eddie Reyes, punk rock for life who was calling Long Island home in 1999.
Lovin' Spoonful
In early 1965 as the "British invasion" dominated the American music scene, two rockers from Long Island, Steve Boone and Joe Butler, teamed up with two folkies from Greenwich Village, John Sebastian and Zal Yanovsky, to form the Lovin' Spoonful and go on to record and perform some of the songs that would dominate the charts and establish them among the greats of the mid-sixties era.<
Roger Daltrey
For the young man whose only other career choice would have been a forced, unwilling existence as a sheet-metal worker, The Who was a life-saver. Roger Daltrey's ambition for his first real band, the Detours, became even stronger, more devouring, for The Who. He often referred to himself as a "shit singer," with only adequate skill as a guitar player.
Don Felder
World-renowned musician Don Felder was one of the original five members and lead guitarist of the rock group The Eagles for 27 years.
Melissa Etheridge
It may be the height of irony that Melissa Etheridge chose to title her exhilarating new album Your Little Secret - for today the provocative singer-songwriter’s talents are secret to absolutely no one.
Seal
Seveteen years ago, before he became an internationally acclaimed, three-time Grammy-winning pop vocalist and songwriter who has sold more than 15 million albums worldwide, Seal was a hot property on Britain’s house music/rave scene. He hooked up with legendary producer Trevor Horn and scored two hits, 1990’s “Killer” (with techno artist Adamski) and 1991’s U.S.
