NEW RELEASES - TRAVIS BRIDGES, MIKE MYERS, THE BOWTIES

TRAVIS BRIDGES - HORN OF PLENTY (HARVEST HARMONY)

In the words of Travis Bridges, this new CD, is designed to inspire listeners. Each title of every song, original and cover, has a special meaning that lends itself to Travis' recent life experiences. It particularly targets those who need inspiration in their "love life" or "life with loved ones". From one who is happily married, single and looking, hurting from a past relationship, missing someone who's crossed over or to those who may need to feel closer to God Himself. Of the total 14 songs- 7 originals & 7 covers, there is a song that nurtures each experience with an uplifting, happy vibe. Titles include; The title cut-Horn of Plenty, Share my life, Draw me close to you, When somebody loves you back, Fix Everything and Love on top to name a few. Although we all may need something different and not everyone is inspired the same, this project is sure to fulfill the deepest desire for inspiration and motivation so thanks to you in advance for considering this project in your "special" section as many will be moved, blessed and inspired by it. ~ CD Baby

MIKE MYERS - THE BIG PICTURE

Mike Myers is proud to present his newest solo album, The Big Picture, a diverse collection of creative instrumental music from the Denton, Texas based composer-drummer-keyboardist. This inventive, beautifully packaged set features nine performances of Myers' original instrumental jazz/rock compositions which rely heavily on classic analog synthesizer sounds which were first made popular in the 1970s. The Big Picture is an incredibly absorbing listen. Boasting confident musicianship and a dazzling variety of contrasting styles, The Big Picture is a highly accessible and very listenable creation. As on his two other solo albums, Sonic Frontiers, and Myriad, Mike Myers handles the duties of playing all instruments, recording, mixing and producing his original music. The Big Picture contains a mixture of diverse styles such as jazz fusion, reggae, symphonic rock, minimalism, classic rock, electronic and ambient music. It's a challenging collection that accords the listener a modicum of imagination and intelligence. ~ CD Universe  

THE BOWTIES - BLACK TIE OPTIONAL

The Bowties have been entertaining audiences in and around Rochester, NY since 1997 with their unique blend of jazz and pop a capella music, with a few oddities thrown in for good measure (e.g., medleys of movie theme songs, the slightly bizarre 'Easter Island Island Head', Frank Zappa's 'Planet of the Baritone Women'). Members of the Greater Rochester Choral Consortium, the Bowties regularly sing at bistros, community festivals, private parties, and special events at locations around Rochester from Syracuse to Niagara on the Lake in Canada. In addition, they donate a portion of their time each year to sing for various charities and civic events. ~ CD Universe
