When Christina Reese started ‘Hangin with Stogie,’ at her very young age of ten years old she probably had no idea she would set the stage for what would become a music sensation. Adding other young talent to her quick rising sound with talented teens Megan Green and Kylie Westerbeck.

Their rising popularity would carry them doing interviews, magazines, tours, and concerts creating a name that not only would highlight their amazing, pure, and high energy sound but also create a new very refreshing mix of country and pop with a twist of rock designing their new generational sound that would become in high demand.

Though this amazing trio have been compared to Taylor Swift, Dixie Chicks, Band Perry, Lady Antebellum Spain, and The Wreckers, you can be certain their sound is original yet contagious. Their down to earth personalities are innocent yet talented and well beyond their years as grounded, focused, outgoing southern young ladies who are out to bring quality music to audiences everywhere – a refreshing change to other genres of over popularized music.

These young ladies carry with them a great vocal sound with very impressive instrumental talent for youth of their age creating the flavor that appeals to all age groups. A sound that leaves audiences everywhere tapping their feet, clapping their hands, not to mention singing along.

Already experiencing the rush of opening major shows for notable artist such as Pat Benatar, an accomplishment well worth the recognition of these southern belles. These new-to-the-stage entertainers are not just vocalists; they master their instruments adding to the excitement of seeing a live performance.

Their stage presence is fresh, new, and professional placing them on top with those names already recognizable in the industry.

In celebration of the International CD Release event party scheduled July 12, at the ‘Old Silk Mill.’ The show will start at 7PM and run till 8PM. Doors will open at 6:30 and will be ‘FREE The CD’ entitled “Summer All Year Long” with their single ‘It Ain’t Me Babe.’

Musik and Film’s The Skys Reviewed By Classic Rock Society Magazine

May 4, 2012

A quick glance at the credits for this Lithuanian band’s fourth album, and you immediately sit up and take notice. Recorded partly at Liscornbe Park studios here in the UK it was produced by John Young who also provides backing vocals and additional keyboards and engineered by Steve Rispin. In addition, the guest list includes Dave Kilminster and Anne Marie Helder, and the drummer for the whole session is Martin Beedle of Cutting Crew. Recorded in the late spring of 2010 it has taken a while to surface, but it was well worth the wait. There is strong Pink Floyd/Roger Waters vibe right through the album, and Kilrninster’s work on the up-beat title track is right at home. The Waters-like vocals with strong female backing make “Is This The Way” and “When The Western Wind Blows” sound as though they could have come from one of the great man’s solo albums. While the comparison is unavoidable there is enough of The Skys themselves in this record to make it original. If you are a fan of the swirling keyboards and big emotional sounding guitar solos you will not go wrong with this. The only question left unanswered is why has it taken 15years and four albums for me to hear of The Skys.

Musik and Film’s George Cahill Reviewed By Skope Magazine

George Cahill has been rocking the Philly scene for awhile and is now celebrating his latest release, “Relevant”. It is 9 tracks of brutal honesty accompanied by some tight instrumentation to drive his point home.

Cahill does a nice rendition of Bob Seger’s, “Still the Same”. He has a unique portrayal of the song and makes it his own with a conversational style to his singing; it is kind of like hanging in a coffee shop as he tells you about his day. Then serenades us all with, “This Land is Your Land”, with the sweetest harmonies and most lonesome harmonica I have ever heard.

David Cooler’s New Single “Country To The Bone”

April 12, 2012

Have you ever skinny dipped in a cow trough? One can’t stop grinning through David Cooler’s “Country To The Bone”! Enjoy!

David Cooler writes, “My music spans several genres and my ‘stories’ churn out a soulful southern rock music mix which has a country, R&B and bluesy style. My music is a form of self-expression and communication, not style. It flows from within.”

“I would have to say that my family has been my biggest influence or inspiration, particularly my mother. For anyone that really knows me, it would not surprise them much. This is because I am not unlike many other country boys who are themselves because of where they came from — I am a self proclaimed ‘mama’s boy’. Yep that’s right, I admitted it and with no reservation!”

Musik and Film Signs Deal With Endless Interstate

March 3, 2012

Musik and Film and Cinderella Records has signed an exclusive distribution deal for new Single Place Called Home from the group ‘Endless Interstate’.

Hailing from Bath Maine this duo comprised of former ‘Liquid Daydream’ members Matthais Sampson (vocals, congas & bongos, djembe, acoustic guitar, mandolin, harmonica and percussion) and Christian Muccino (acoustic & electric guitars, bass guitar, percussion and orchestral sounds) brings more than 20 years of making music together to Cinderella Records. Two decades worth of music collaboration has created a sound and unity that is time honed with the patina of experience.

The new single “Place Called Home” displays what this duo does best. With tight harmonies, simple clean rhythms, and honestly delivered lyrics we see why these two musicians have made a career of making music together. As reviewed by Rhonda Readence on the bands website “Place Called Home carries a rhythm that is vaguely reminiscent of R.E.M. towards the beginning and Matt’s vocals are delivered in a deep and more drawn out style than than in the preceding track. Chris’s guitar playing is graceful, both the acoustic and the electric, and this piece rolls smoothly. The lyrics carry a haunting sense of despair as Matt gently croons about the plight of the homeless.”

“Soulful, emotional, well written and produced, it has a great Pearl Jam/Temple of the Dog feel to it. I haven’t taken it out of my cd player since I put it in”. Chris Johnston – Owner of The Montsweag Roadhouse, Woolwich, ME
