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

philosophy into the mainstream where it can be accessible and
relevant. The group is fronted by Cevin Soling, who is also known as
the Messiah of Tanna and currently studying philosophy for his
Masters degree at Harvard University. the love kills theory is based
on an amalgam of the works of Guy Debord, founder of Situationist
International, Aldous Huxley, and others, fused with the current bio-
genetic studies on the evolution of despair.

Swamp Cabbage is electric American roots music. Swamp Cabbage is
always original even when they're payin' tribute. Swamp Cabbage is
North Florida fatback boogaloo blues from three white guys brave
enough to play The Theme From Shaft without strings and chick
singers. You dance and then you laugh because they pull it off.
Fronted by Walter Parks who has been playing since 2001 with Richie
Havens, the man who made rock history by opening the 1969 Woodstock
Festival, Swamp Cabbage has been in the studio recording their
upcomign full-length album to be released later this year.

Expect a new Red Flag album to release this summer. Revealing his plans for Red Flag, Chris tells it all in his recent interview with Matt Willis and Grave Concerns Ezine . "The sound of the new material is a true Red Flag sound -as true as it can be without my brother Mark," Said Chris in the recent interview. "When it's released its sure to take the music world by storm. I hope Red Flag fans will continue to be as supportive and loyal as they have proven to be in the past. I know they won't be disappointed.

Red Flag made the top 10 Billboard charts in 1988 with their memorable song Russian Radio. The next year Red Flag's debut album, Naive Art, released by Enigma, earned them another top 10 single, If I Ever. Red Flag's music became a favorite in dance clubs around the world. MTV put Red Flag's video, Russian Radio, in heavy rotation later that year. Touring extensively, Red Flag played with acts Devo, Thomas Dolby, and Book of Love. They appeared on the TV show American bandstand where they performed Russian Radio. Since then, Red Flag released 11 albums, 14 CD singles, two box sets and appeared on numerous compilations. Their music has been featured on MTV reality shows. The band has played concerts around the world in the U.S., Europe, Canada, Mexico, and Peru. The music of Red Flag has evolved from New Wave Dance synthpop to darker and highly textured industrial melodies. Their work has inspired countless bands and garnered fans around the globe. The untimely death of Mark Reynolds in 2003, brought to a halt the creative output of Red Flag. In time, however, Chris Reynolds has become inspired and has opted to carry on the banner of Red Flag. Chris, acting alone, is the composer, arranger, singer, and producer of Red Flag's yet to be named new album. "Given good exposure, this album will take the world by storm when I release it." he said. "The time was right for me to write again. I kept coming up with these vivid melodies and great ideas for new songs kept coming to me. I'd find myself waking up in the middle of the night to compose elements of the songs before I forgot them. I'm almost finished with all the tracks and it rocks!"

Red Flag's album is expected to release by summer.

Sounds of Greg D is based primarily around the singing and songwriting of Greg Di Gesu who has been playing in various bands since the mid-80's. First band The Wooden Soldiers quickly became local New Brunswick, NJ faves. During the span of The Wooden Soldiers, Greg began learning the art of studio recording and has since received 2 platinum records; one for Lenny Kravitz's Are You Gonna Go My Way and another for John Mayer's Room For Squares. Greg has also worked with Jimmy Scott, Guided By Voices, and Elliott Smith.

Next band was Fishermen's Stew, a rotating band of musicians from the years 1991-1999. The Stew was followed by his next endeavor Speedsters and Dopers founded in NYC in June of 2000. The music would not be of the hippie variety nor would it be heavy metal, as some may assume from its namesake. Instead there was a sound encompassing early Bowie and the songwriting stylings of Lennon & Lou Reed with the lyrical focus of Dylan.
Greg's newest project includes Ryan Thornton on drums (Rana / Sam Champion), Dave Dreiwitz on bass (Ween), Jack Petruzzelli playing guitar (The Fab Faux / Rufus Wainwright), and Arne Wendt (Como Drive / The VooDudes) on Hammond B3, Wurlitzer, Nord. Greg sings and plays guitar, harmonica, Rhodes piano and writes the songs.

If you like Syd Barrett, Ray Davies and the formentioned Lou Reed then chances are you'll dig the current Sounds of Greg D

Larry Crane - Tape Op (Jan 23, 2007)

Greg Di Gesu wrote the wonderful Chris Butler interview last issue, and this is his combo, recorded completely live, "no overdubs, all end of session rough mixes as final mixes!" That's right kids, live takes, vocals included, all done in two days at Cowboy Technical Service in Brooklyn by engineer Tim Hatfield. Mastered by Tom Ruff at Mercenary Productions. Greg's ace is the talented backing quartet behind him, supporting the tunes and playing well. There's a loose, engaging feel here like Dylan's Highway 61, certainly due to the live studio approach, though the 16 track, 15 ips 2" and accompanying tape hiss doesn't hurt!

JERSEY BEAT REVIEW

SOUNDS OF GREG D - My Little Monkey Got Caught. A
perfectly lively, joyous and nicely melodic pop-rock album that was
performed live in the studio. Greg D's deep, friendly, commanding voice
projects a warmth and smooth assurance that's quite engaging. The folksy,
harmonic, pleasingly kicked-back, yet still hoppin' arrangements are
likewise really up to speed while the snappy tempos and neatly boppin'
beats bounce along in a winningly catchy and effervescent manner.
Moreover, there's a real blithe spirit and good-natured quality evident in
such delightful songs as "Something's Always Wrong," "Having A Good Time,"
and "Love on the Go" that's genuinely refreshing and appealing. It's this
infectiously perky and upbeat sensibility which in turn makes this album a
real treat to listen to. - Joe W

Lord Litter (Berlin, Germany)

Many thanks!!! I really LOVE the CD!!! ... it's what I call a perfect (!!!) release for people looking for a certain feeling/*honesty* in music!!

I just realised that we know each other for almost 20 years!! With each step (band/release) I think you came closer to your *real you in music* (if that makes sense in english) and Monkey is the *best* so far!!!

What a great album, your best easily I'd say and I am a big fan of your last work. The production, execution, and musicianship is ultra tasty and alive. The songs themselves are top notch.
