Press Release

By Sally Cooper, 2007-04-17

Perfect Universe" Cd Released September 2006 by Australian Vocalist/Songwriter Sally Cooper."Perfect Universe" was funded and produced by Australian vocalist Sally Cooper and her Guitarist/partner Phillip Stone. Recorded at Ian Harveys "Electric Bedland Studios" in Eumundi, QLD, Australia. The Cd offers an unpretentious and distinctly Antipodean assortment of Jazz/Blues and Rock. Featuring Original music that was written by Sally Cooper and Phillip Stone from the Internationally touring Australian group: "The Sally Cooper Duo" during their 6 night a week performance engagement in Mumbai, India for 10 months in 2005. The cd also features some classic cover song interpretations that they offer their own personal approach to.Vocals on all tracks are by Sally Cooper. She soars effortlessly into unadulterated, and at times unlikely dominions within her vocal arrangements and lyrical themes.The lyrical subject matter explores her love of music in terms of how it relates to the pure function of taste in "Take a Bite." Guitarist Phillip Stones guitar styling's offer excitement and colour to this track, and also to the entire cd. Clearly a consummate guitarist, he offers variety in his approach to each track that pay tribute to his obvious respect of artists such as Pat Metheny, Wes Montgomery and Frank Gambale.The cds' title track "Perfect Universe" explores an acceptance of the pure perfection of imperfection itself. The bands Jazz Rock arrangement and mercurial guitar solos propel this concept into an intentionally complimentary perspective.Featuring a groove that is akin to some of the work of "Steely Dan" The subject of taste in relation to music is also explored in "The Apple of Temptation" which traverses into a more tongue in cheek metaphorical parody of text only communication in the information age of emails and the internet.Queensland based bassist and producer Gus Fenwick plays all the bass on the cd and he also engineered "Soon Enough," a contemporary track that wouldn’t sound out of place on a Sting cd. Kerry Jacobsen from the legendary Australian band "Dragon" plays all the drums. The unfaltering groove of the rhythm section elevates the inherent jazz elements of the music into a potentially more widely accessible dimension."Dreaming Out Loud" is a straight up crossover Blues/gospel song that celebrates the simple joy of life. This song is also enhanced by the incredible Crocodillian vocals of surprise guest artist Queensland based vocalist Barry Charles, who adds an Antipodean twist in his vocal approach.Settled comfortably in the infectious Swing of "Spreading That Stuff" is a lyrical exploration of the incredible power of the spoken word when used in gossip, and its uncanny power, when used this way to reach tabloid dimensions.The Variety of styles and influences on the cd tend to beg an inevitable question in regards to its genre. Is it Swing? Is it Jazz? Is it even a little like rockabilly at times? Well IS it rock? Is it Blues? But there are gospel elements? And it’s even contemporary and folky at times? Sally Cooper definitely deliberately chose to defy the trainspotting tendencies of the genre police in the production of this cd.Some might simply see this cd as a just a group of great musicians playing a bunch of songs they wrote, well even so, the appeal of it has got to be inevitable in the current climate of producer controlled, commercially motivated, and regressively simplistic popular music, because it ISNT just another bunch of nursery rhymes run through photoshop and Autotune.The cd features the keys and string pads of Australian Pianist/Producer Ross Nixon, who also generously offered his well refined skills in his engineering approach to the sophisticated sounding jazz songs: "Spreading That Stuff" "Take a Bite," and Billie Holidays: "God Bless the child that’s got his own" which received the lush treatment they deserved in their production.A tribute is paid to the late Janis Joplin and Banjo Paterson in two surprise tracks, which are completely unique to the rest of the cd. Featuring only Phillip Stone humbly playing acoustic guitar and Sally’s voice, these tracks sound as if you were sitting two feet away from the duo in an intimate exposed setting, listening to timeless stories being told by the pair who make them their own and tell them so well.Aretha Franklins' "Dr Feelgood" receives an approach, which reveals Sally Coopers' background of performing 4-6 nights a week in pubs and clubs across Australia. Her vocal delivery stands and delivers in an affronting way that could tingle the spine of even the most hardened Aussie pub patron.Ian Harvey from Electric Bedland studios was the tracking engineer on this cd and he also mixed "The Apple of Temptation," "Dr Feelgood," "Perfect Universe," "Dreaming out Loud," "Waltzing Matilda," and "Me and Bobby McGee." Ian Harvey runs a "no BS" Studio where artists who go there emerge with a finished product that simply sounds like themselves, (only recorded well.) Thanks to Ian Harvey of "Electric Bedland Studios" it was possible for Sally to realize her vision in this project "to be able to hear the growl of the bass, the whack of the snare drum and the snap of the guitar strings." Her intentional choice of musicians for this project, (some of Australia’s finest,) naturally justified her "non interference" approach to the tracking. Once she organized the musicians for the rehearsals and recording sessions, it was simply a matter of staying out of the way and watching them bring her music to life.So, if you are tired of overproduced, try hard commercial songs, and if you just want to hear a Feel good Aussie band playing some great music really well, Sally Coopers' cd: "Perfect Universe: is for you.

GRC Records, LLC FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE For more information, contact: G.R.C.

Baltimore Born, Funk/Rock Guitarist/Composer: Greg Coleman, is determined to become the next major national act, from a city that rarely experiences such national success with it’s local artist. One of Baltimore Maryland’s best kept musical secrets, Greg Coleman said that he wanted to keep it that way, until he had the support system in place, that would allow him to promote his projects into national prominence where he feels they belong. And now that he has this system in place, he is ready to release his new debut cd entitled: “Smooth Like You Like It!”. This is Greg Coleman’s anthem to the smooth jazz genre, which he considers to be the greatest ear relief on radio for the adult contemporary music listener in 26 years. The entire cd was written, produced, arranged, and performed in it’s entirety by this Native Baltimorean, with the exception of 1 Stevie Wonder Song, that is one of Greg Coleman’s favorites. Finally! Greg Coleman states: “This press release is a heads up for all who are interested in quality adult contemporary music, which despite the changing trends, has been, and will always be, my passion”. “I do not, and will not, produce and distribute music to the listening public that I would not purchase and listen to myself”. For further information, contact Greg Coleman at (888) 210-8337.
