LOOKING GOOD IS ...
Rome's website:
http://www.romealexander.com
Genre:
R&B
At
only 23 years old, Rome has already cut records even the most highly
regarded R&B singers in the world would be proud of. His fans say
he's the next Chris Brown, some say the next Usher, and some even go as far as saying he
could be the next Michael Jackson. Critics say he's R&B's next big
star, others say he's just the next big thing. The only thing for sure
is that Rome is going places and everyone who has had the pleasure of
discovering him wants to be there to experience it when he does.
His musical influences range from contemporary R&B artists like Ne-Yo, Usher and John Legend to
legends like Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson and
Prince.
From
songwriting to production working behind the scenes to laying down his
own records, everything his hands touch sky rocket up the charts, and
everytime he gets on stage he lights it up and gives fans something
exceptional to remember.
Rome
started out shortly before 2012 when he was even younger and he has already
grown his fan base to a level where he is regarded as one of the top R&B acts to watch closely by industry insiders. The talented
Pittsburg, US singer, songwriter and producer has already worked with
some of the top names in the business and continues to take his career
further and further independently with the support of notable online media outlets and radio
stations.
Only
a few months after his previous release, "Spendin", he's back with
another hot new single, "Feeling Good". Looks like there's another hot
Rome Alexander album on the horizon, and there's no doubt fans are
feeling pretty amazing and excited about that.

HOPE
As
New York Independent rockstar extraordinaire Frank Palangi takes time out to
celebrate 7 years in the music industry and a successful career with a fan
base that now seems to be growing at an almost alarming rate, we take time out to
celebrate one of his highly rated singles, Hope.
Released
back in April, 2014, it was one of the first of Frank's most highly
anticipated singles after the release of his debut album, I Am Ready.
Frank's then new found fans called Hope inspirational, motivational and a
much needed contribution to rock music as a whole, and the song became
one of his most played records at
the time.
According
to many fans and industry insiders, it marked the beginning of
something special and Frank's rise to the top, and they weren't wrong.
Hope is available on Soundcloud, iTunes, CD Baby and other major digital music outlets.

#SkunkRadioLiveHotterThanWasabi
T O N I G H T !
Los Angeles electronic music producer, Tyzo Bloom (formerly KC) created a distinctive, intoxicating and addictive electronic sound and a clear career path leading nowhere else but the stars when he stepped onto California, USA's EDM scene only a few years ago.
After years of wowing fans with what could only be described as the most complex, mind boggling electronic sounds the world has ever experienced, under his former name, KC, Tyzo Bloom dropped off the radar suddenly and resurfaced with a brand new sound, even more outstanding than what he started out with, catapulting himself to the top of EDM charts almost instantly and securing him a place as one of LA's top notch independent music producers.
Following in the footsteps of his previous release earlier this year, Closer To You, which featured independent LA singer songwriter, JNNA and widely surpassing the expectations fans, his latest release, Tonight is currently atop many EDM charts and has already reached number 23 on Hype Machine.
The new single was released on the 2nd of February and is available to stream and download free on Soundcloud. It is also available to stream and download on iTunes and top music outlets.

IAN AND THE DREAM AT WAMI 2017
It's that time of the year again when Milwaukee, USA comes together to appreciate the most prolific, most talented and most cherished contributors to its local music scene. Sitting comfortably somewhere at the top of the list is pop rock band, Ian And The Dream.
They're favorites at one of the world's largest music festivals, Summerfest, Grammy Award Winners revere their work, they've shared the stage with some of the biggest names in entertainment including The Beach Boys, and Ian And The Dream, often regarded as Milwaukee's most sensational act is also a TV and radio favorite appearing on national media regularly including Fox and CBS.
The band got their break only a few years ago when they won the Battle Of The Bands competition and they've been closely watched and supported by industry insiders ever since.
Independently they've managed to achieve success and make a name for themselves as one of the biggest acts their hometown has ever seen and are also one of the top independent pop rock acts in the US.
When their local sports teams are playing big games and need a band to really set the tone for the event, Ian And The Dream is the band they call. When local television and radio hosts are looking a refreshing act to feature, they are called upon, and when international acts are in town looking for a great act to open for them, it's them again.
Ian And The Dream's sound is catchy, uplifting, colorful and family-friendly, and the band is also known to have a very healthy sense of humor. They light up the stage where ever they go, whether they're performing in front of hundreds of fans or thousands of fans.
This year the Wisconsin Area Music Industry Awards has nominated them for the Best Pop Rock Act Award. The 37th annual WAMI is due to take place on the 23rd of April, and surely fans will be looking forward to another chance to see them live again.
