Grammy Award Winning The Flamingos Starring Terry Johnson, aka the “Ambassadors for Romance”- herald the return of passion to radio airwaves worldwide as Musik Radio and Musik and Film Inc. launch into airplay “The Diamond Anniversary Tour 2013“ CD.

With a fresh new sound Hollywood, FL based Rock n’ Roll Hall of Famers The Flamingos debut their latest CD to worldwide radio through the promotions of Musik Radio ™ in association with Musik and Film Inc. Radio launch is scheduled to commence January 23, 2013.

When Cupid aimed his quiver of arrows at the music world, he inherently struck the hearts and voices of Terry Johnson and the newest members of The Flamingos. As unerring as the flight of those arrows, is the steady, rich flow of the music of love and romance from The Flamingos, Cupid’s “Ambassadors for Romance”. Proof the cherubic archer hit his mark, is the latest album, produced by Terry Johnson and Theresa Trigg.

Falling in love can start with a shared melody that one day becomes “our song.” The music of love and romance so evocatively delivered by this new album from The Flamingos has exactly that kind of power and persuasion. Released by Hot Fun Records, Musik Radio will be promoting the new CD to over 27,000 radio stations and 40,000 with syndication worldwide. From the opening track, written and performed by Grammy Hall of Fame Award honoree Terry Johnson, the listener is transported to a place and time separate from the daily details of ordinary life. Captivated by the richness of harmony interwoven into a musical tapestry you lose yourself. Dreamily sighing, one finds a hum tickling the back of your throat as you notice you are smiling and singing along hypnotized into an altered state. You’ve been romanced into the mood so aptly perfected by this impeccably produced new CD. In addition to being a gifted singer and performer, Johnson is a highly acclaimed producer. He was Musical and Vocal Arranger for The Flamingos during the magical time of the Grammy award win for their song,”I Only Have Eyes For You”. Starling Newsome and Stan Prinston join Terry on vocals presenting the listener with an audible example of the beauty of unity.

If, as some fear, romance has been “evicted” from much of today’s music, The Flamingos offer the recipe for reclamation: mix four parts smooth, mellow voices, fold in superb production, add sophisticated musical arrangements blend with keyboard and the guitar styling’s of award winning musicians, then sprinkle in familiar classics such as, “I Only Have Eyes For You,” and “When I Fall In Love,” and create The Diamond Anniversary Tour 2013 album. Send that recording into the world, taking it in concert and radio far and wide, to remind all of us that romance, and the love that a wonderful romance ignites, is ever near, if we just look and listen with open hearts.

“If you’re ever in the dog house, play this record and it gets you out fast.” – Bruno Mars in a Rolling Stone

The Matthew Davidson Band – “Rock and Roll Christmas” by George Thorogood – Natchitoches, LA


“Wonder kid Matthew Davidson may only be 14 but he definitely knows a little something about the blues. After recently releasing his EP album, Step Up, a four track blues-rock album including an electric cover of Jimmy Eat World’s early 2000s pop classic hit, “The Middle,” Davidson has become something of a name worth talking about. His unprecedented knack for music along with the mentorship and influence of renowned veteran musician Joe Osborn has helped him put his guitar/musical skills on full throttle. Davidson is only in the first stages, chalking out his path to blues-pop, rock stardom. After less than a decade of playing, Davidson has become an award-winning guitarist and vocalist. He has been planting his name all over the airwaves from being the chosen guitarist of Kidd Kraddick’s “Rock Band Camp” to accepting the 2011 Robert Johnson Blues Foundation New Generation Award. Stage hopping around the Southern states, the Shreveport, La. native and his four-piece band, The Matthew Davidson Project, has an ever growing list of festival performances including: The New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival, The Natchitoches Jazz/R & B Festival, The T-Bone Walker Blues Fest in Linden, Texas and headlining the 2011 Mississippi Blues Marathon in Jackson, Miss. Step Up is only a taste of what is to come for Matthew. His mature funk’d out guitar skills are inevitably demonstrative of this kids natural talent and devotion to music. You’ll never hear another 14-year-old hone that Louisiana Southern blues-funk rhyththe way that Davidson has.” -Kimmie Tubre ( “Step Up” Review in Where Y’at Magazine – New Orleans, LA – Dec. 19th, 2012)

PONTE VEDRA, FL, September 16, 2012
Country Music PR News

Musik and Film Inc,  is proud to announce the exclusive signing of Adrianna Freeman to Musik and Film Records and Musik Radio Promotions.

Stephen I just want to thank you and Rhonda-I have worked for 11  years, playing second fiddle to everyone else. Being looked over and passed over for other artists. It feels so good to be with people who believe in me and my music. For so long I felt like it was just me, my family, a notebook , and some songs. I have been promised so many things by so many people in the music industry that I thought I would never be able to trust anyone else in this business again. BUT- I trust you and Ms. Rhonda! I am so thankful that God lead my family to you, I really can’t thank you guys enough for helping to renew my faith in this business once again. With God’s help- I am starting to really believe that we can go all the way!!!!” – Adrianna Freeman

 

Adrianna Freeman is a Country singer. Reared in the South on a plantation property passed down through her family’s three generations of farmers. Adrianna began sharing her song when she was just a little girl. All dolled up in her yellow dress, with matching ribbons in her hair and her best Sunday shoes she would sing on the back of her daddy’s flatbed truck at the local farmers markets where the family sold their latest crops. Her Grandfather and her father planted the love of Country music in her heart before she was born

As a teen, Adrianna worked overseas with the missionary organization Teen Mania. It was there that she realized the healing and joy her voice could bring to others. Inspired and determined she set out to make music in the big world of Nashville. The realities of the music industry are a harsh reckoning to even the most seasoned and accomplished professional.

With the tenacity and drive that only a true country heart can propel, Adrianna’s song would not be caged. After endless rejections, a first victory came through, winning the attention of Teddy Gentry of the super-group “ALABAMA”. In 2007, Teddy generously offered his talents as producer to Adrianna’s project.   In May of 2009, Adrianna was hand-picked by Mr. Gentry to be one of twelve artists for his “Teddy Gentry’s Best New Nashville”, a project sponsored by Cracker Barrel Old Country Stores.  However following this break,  her career stalled.

Finally in the summer of 2012, Adrianna met with Stephen Wrench, President of Musik and Film. Stephen was blown away by Adrianna’s voice. He recalls, “It gave me chills. Adrianna brought to my attention that there has never been a black female country artist. I seriously questioned why? Country music is country music. it only matters that when a listener hears your music does it move them? Adrianna has moved me and I know she will move anyone who hears her.”

Her Debut album, Either You Do or You Don’t has been released through Musik and Film Records. The single, “Will Not Be Your Tennessee” was released to radio by Musik and Film’s radio promotion division, Musik Radio Promotions  and is gaining traction fast! “Adrianna has received a great deal of attention from radio; especially in the UK, Europe and Australia.

Adrianna Freeman’s music speaks for itself. Her music makes it easy for Musik and Film to try and break her as the first female African American Country artist. With her soft Southern lilt, clear crystalline tone and sunny sweet delivery, Adrianna Freeman stands on the edge of the gilded cage, the door is open and she’s ready to fly!

Adrianna reflected that, “Ten and a half years ago my family and I embarked on a journey that has transcended across three generations. Before I was even thought of, my grandfather, Walter Freeman, dreamed about becoming a Country Music singer, and he passed his dream down to my father, Ed Freeman. My father passed the dream down to me, and I have been dreaming ever since.”

It’s time for Adrianna’s dream to come true!
