Los Angeles-based hard rock quintet BUDDERSIDE resurrect and renew the purity of rock n’ roll with their gritty swagger and soulful melodies. Over the past two years, they’ve been whetting listener’s appetites with new music from their upcoming third studio album WHITE FLAME, now set for a July 10 release.

Recorded with Matt Good (Asking Alexandria, Hollywood Undead) with mastering completed by Howie Weinberg (Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana), WHITE FLAME “defines who we are, as people, musicians, and poets,” shares founding member and vocalist Patrick Alan Stone. “It represents ourselves individually, our fans, our friends and all of our hopes, fears, pasts and dreams. It’s as honest as you can get and we are very, very proud of not only the music but also its message.” Pre-order WHITE FLAME digitally HERE.

BUDDERSIDE will appear at fall’s biggest rock festivals in the U.S. this year, including Louder Than Life and Aftershock.

Watch the song’s tantalizing music video streaming below or directly via YouTube HERE

“‘Suffocate City’ speaks to our listeners’ sense of fear,” says vocalist LEE JENNINGS. “The fear of being stuck in a dead-end job, a dead-end relationship, or a dead-end financial situation. The fear of ‘never getting out’ is a ubiquitous experience that anyone can connect and relate to.”

SPENCER CHARNAS comments “Thrilled to team up with our good friends The Funeral Portrait on their track ‘Suffocate City.’ We had a killer time working with them on the song and the accompanying music video. Check it out now.”

Lauded as one of Alternative Press’ “100 Bands You Need to Know,” THE FUNERAL PORTRAIT have relentlessly toured across the country building an unwavering fanbase with their extravagant theatrics, stage décor and even costumed actors while opening for acts including Shinedown, Ice Nine Kills, Underoath, Skillet, From Ashes To New, Starset, Pvris and ISSUES. This summer/fall, they’ll hit the road on an arena tour with Five Finger Death Punch, Marilyn Manson, and Slaughter To Prevail from August 2 to September 19.

ROSS VALORY Marks The Summer Solstice With The Release Of His Interpretation Of War’s “Low Rider” From His Debut Solo Album ‘All Of The Above’

DATE: JUNE 20, 2024

FROM: MITCH SCHNEIDER/MARCEE RONDAN, SRO PR

ROSS VALORY
TODAY MARKS THE SUMMER SOLSTICE
WITH THE RELEASE OF HIS INTERPRETATION OF
WAR’S “LOW RIDER”
THE CLASSIC CRUISING ANTHEM IS FEATURED ON
THE ORIGINAL JOURNEY BASSIST
AND SONGWRITER’S DEBUT SOLO ALBUM
‘ALL OF THE ABOVE’
WATCH THE DAZZLING VIDEO HERE

ROSS VALORY today (June 20) marks the summer solstice by rolling out a dazzling video for his interpretation of funk-rockers War’s classic cruising anthem “Low Rider.” It’s one of the highlights from the original Journey bassist and songwriter’s current debut solo album ALL OF THE ABOVE (OID Music). Watch the video HERE.

“Low Rider” is another visually colorful delight directed by Michael Cotten, who lensed the album’s three other videos. It was premiered yesterday by Ultimate Classic Rock.

Says ROSS: “Michael Cotten has done exceptional work on the videos for every song on the album. It may be obvious to all that he is greatly inspired by my music. Michael and I are naturally in sync. Michael hears what I see. He sees what I hear. And, likewise! “With the exception of a few strategic edits recommended on my part,” he adds, “Michael Cotten ran with the ball on this song from the beginning.”

Cotten outlines how he envisioned the video: “We could say that this visual treatment of the classic song is an homage to the great tradition of Mexican/American car culture. We wanted to heighten the brilliant baroque sensibility that Lowrider cars and bikes display!”

“Low Rider” gets a sturdy makeover as ROSS is joined by Josh Ramos of the Storm providing the proper Puerto Rican vocals. Hall of Famer Gregg Errico of Sly and the Family Stone handles drums, with additional percussion by Karl Perazzo from Carlos Santana’s band. Canadian reality TV star Les Stroud, the original “Survivorman,” an old friend of Valory’s, adds harmonica, and Marc Russo ties everything together on soprano sax, which by the end of the track, turns into a party. The other players lighting up “Low Rider” are Eric Levy (ogan, clavinet, synth) and guitarist Vernon “Ice” Black.

What was ROSS’ inspiration to cover “Low Rider”? “As I had just completed the basic tracks, in 2018, for the first cover tune, “Incident at Neshabur/Senior Blue,” I said to the boys that there was one more cool cover tune that I had always wanted to do. They all said, ‘let’s do it.’”

“I first arranged the session by inviting Greg Errico, who was the perfect drummer for the song,” ROSS continues. “Les ‘Survivorman’ Stroud, who recorded the harp, just happened to be passing through town. I brought in guitarist Josh Ramos, who has the perfect voice for this song, to cut the vocal tracks. The basic tracks were completed with Vernon ‘Ice’ Black, who brought the perfect touch for such a tune. The overdubs were completed by veterans Marc Russo, on saxes, and Karl Perazzo on percussion. The whole recording experience was fast and easy, as a song like ‘Low Rider’ should be!

“Low Rider” marks the fourth video and track from the debut album from one of rock’s best bass guitarists and an original member of the multi-platinum band Journey. It follows the album’s three previous videos which Cotten created for “Tomland” (the album’s hypnotic first single), “Wild Kingdom (with its Latin-fired intensity), and “Windmill” (defined by its Brazilian flair).

ALL OF THE ABOVE was produced by VALORY and co-produced by Eric Levy and Jacob Stowe. The nine tracks on the album represent the full maturity of VALORY’s musical gifts, cutting a broad swath through the instrumental territory the music travels. He plays keyboards, guitar, and, of course, many basses in a display of cultivated virtuosity across a palette far broader than could be found in his work with Journey. He is stepping out from behind his bass and, for the first time in his more than half-century as a professional musician, representing his vision and his compositions.

VALORY left Journey in 2020 and the band members worked out their issues in a peaceful mediated settlement. VALORY, who spent most of his life as a member of Journey, has no regrets. He counts his blessings at having spent an amazing career with a remarkable group of musicians who succeeded beyond their wildest dreams.

In honor of what would have been Chet Atkins’ 100^th birthday today (June 20), Grammy® Award winner TOMMY EMMANUEL has released a newly shot video of “Mr. Guitar” (Live).” It’s a song that TOMMY wrote in honor of the legendary and influential guitar pioneer.

Watch the video, filmed at TOMMY’s home outside of Nashville, TN and directed by Joshua Britt & Neilson Hubbard for Neighborhoods Apart, HERE. It was premiered yesterday (June 19) by The Bluegrass Situation.

The original studio recording of “Mr. Guitar” appeared on Tommy Emmanuel’s 1997 collaborative album with Chet Atkins titled The Day Finger Pickers Took Over the World.

A live version the song, “Mr. Guitar (Live),” recorded in St. Louis, is featured as a live bonus track on TOMMY‘s album, Endless Road: 20th Anniversary Edition, released May 28, 2024.

There’s also a new version of “Mr. Guitar” that TOMMY recorded with Grammy-winning bluegrass fiddler Michael Cleveland. It appears on the multi-artist album WE STILL CAN’T SAY GOODBYE – A Musicians’ Tribute to Chet Atkins, released March 15, 2024.

TOMMY EMMANUEL is an acoustic guitarist extraordinaire, composer, and global touring artist. He is also one of five people ever named a C.G.P. (Certified Guitar Player) by Chet Atkins, the innovator, songwriter, producer, record company executive, and visionary.

“Mentoring and encouraging people is something that Chet always did,” TOMMY says. “I try to do this thing with Gareth (Pearson), and I try to do the same with all young people. I encourage them to do things that I learned from Chet. I hope that somewhere somehow, I showed somebody something because of him that changed their life and made their life better. Cause he sure did that for me.”

Read HERE for more about ENDLESS ROAD: 20^TH ANNIVERSARY EDITION. Regarded as a landmark album within TOMMY’s body of work, Endless Road has now been newly remastered for digital outlets and is also available for the first time ever on vinyl.

TOMMY is also coming off a dynamic 2023. He released his acclaimed collaborations album ACCOMPLICE TWO to great acclaim and earned the “Lifetime Achievement” Award from The National GUITAR Museum.

ABOUT TOMMY EMMANUEL:

TOMMY EMMANUEL has achieved enough musical milestones to satisfy several lifetimes. At the age of six, the Grammy® Award winner was touring regional Australia with his family band. By 30, he was a rock n’ roll lead guitarist burning up stadiums in Europe. At 44, he became one of five people ever named a CPG (Certified Guitar Player) by his idol, music icon Chet Atkins. Today, he plays hundreds of sold-out shows every year from Nashville to Sydney to London. He’s piled up numerous accolades, including two Grammy Award nominations, two ARIA Awards from the Australian Recording Industry Association (the Aussie equivalent of the Recording Academy); repeated honors in the Guitar Player magazine reader’s poll including a cover story for their August 2017 issue; a cover feature for Vintage Guitar’s July 2020 issue; and was Music Radar’s reader’s poll #1 winner of the Ten Best Acoustic Guitarists in The World (December 2019). A noted fingerstyle guitarist, EMMANUEL frequently threads three different parts simultaneously into his material, operating as a one-man band who handles the melody, the supporting chords and the bass all at once. His talents, which translate in any language, carry him to the far corners of the globe, but EMMANUEL never plays the same show twice, and he improvises big chunks of every date. That leaves him open to those technical imperfections, though they also provide some of the humanity to an other-worldly talent.

ABOUT MORNINGSTAR MUSIC PRODUCTIONS:

Morningstar Music Productions was created by executive producers and longtime great friends Rodger Glaspey and Ken Leister. The two partners performed in groups that recorded albums during the 70’s as collegians during the Folk/Rock invasion. Producer and musician Carl Jackson approached Rodger and Ken with the desire to produce an album to honor Chet Atkins. The temptation to executive produce an album in Nashville paying homage to Chet Atkins with some of the finest artists and guitar players in the world including Vince Gill, Tommy Emmanuel, Brad Paisley, and other greats was too captivating to pass up… and thus, Morningstar Music Productions was born, with their first album release We Still Can’t Say Good Bye—A Musicians’ Tribute To Chet Atkins released April 19.

The legendary-and-thriving LITTLE FEAT today (June 18) raise their glass to the “Milkman” with the newly released video for the opening track from their critically acclaimed, blues-focused album SAM’S PLACE (Hot Tomato Productions/MRI). You can feel the band’s joyous camaraderie in this mainly performance video filmed earlier this year at Studio Instrumental Rentals in Nashville. Watch “Milkman,” directed and edited by Michael Kessler, HERE.

The members of LITTLE FEAT 2024 are: Bill Payne, Keyboards and Vocals; Sam Clayton, Percussion and Vocals; Fred Tackett, Guitars and Vocals, Kenny Gradney, Bass; Scott Sharrard, Guitars and Vocals; and Tony Leone, drums and vocals. “Milkman” is an original LITTLE FEAT song written by Clayton (about his nephew), Tackett, and Sharrard. The deeply grooving track features Clayton on lead vocals, Payne on piano, Gradney on bass, Fred on electric guitar, Sharrard on slide guitar, and Leone on drums. In the video, premiered today at Glide Magazine, the band is joined by Steve Herrman on trumpet and Dana Robbins on saxophone. Interspersed throughout the video is archival footage of milkmen through the years.

LITTLE FEAT stopped into The GRAMMY Museum’s intimate 200-seat Clive Davis Theater on June 10 to celebrate the May 17 release of SAM’S PLACE. It’s their first new studio album in 12 years; first-ever blues album; and the first one to feature linchpin conga player Clayton on lead vocals on every song. The evening began with a lively conversation with moderator Scott Goldman (the museum’s artistic director) encompassing their career, creative process, and more. It was followed by a reliably rousing five-song performance from the band. Read Screamer Magazine’s account of the night HERE.

“Milkman” marks the fourth video from the album and follows these clips: “You’ll Be Mine,” a cover of the Willie Dixon-written chestnut popularized by Howlin’ Wolf; “Can’t Be Satisfied,” a rollicking interpretation of the classic Muddy Waters-written gem; and, most recently, “Long Distance Call,” another Muddy Waters song featuring a soulful duet with longtime friend Bonnie Raitt.

“I’ve always loved Little Feat and this new incarnation of the band is bringing some serious heat, cred and new blood to their enduring legacy,” said Raitt. “Every Feat fan loves us some Sam. I’m so glad he’s now gotten a chance to step out front and center and put his spin on these wonderful blues songs. I loved singing ‘Long Distance Call’ with him, always one of my favorites, and Scott slayed on slide. Know you’ll enjoy hanging out with us at Sam’s Place!”

LITTLE FEAT’s individual musical chops and collective chemistry light up the nine-track SAM’S PLACE, which was waxed at Sam Phillips Recording in Memphis, TN (August 2023), except for “Got My Mojo Working (Live),” recorded live at the Boulder Theatre in Boulder, CO (December 17, 2022). This is the first LITTLE FEAT album recorded with new members Sharrard and Leone. Read more about the album HERE.

LITTLE FEAT is busy this summer and fall on the road. From touring with the Tedeschi Trucks Band to headline shows with The Wood Brothers, Los Lobos, Marc Broussard, Duane Betts & Palmetto Motel, The Steel Wheels, and Rob Ickes & Trey Hensley, there will be plenty of chances to boogie with the band.

ABOUT LITTLE FEAT:

The members of Little Feat emerged from the pandemic with their sense of humor, chops, and collective joy in playing intact on their 2024 album Sam’s Place. Over the past three years, they’ve focused tours on their epic live album Waiting for Columbus and re-issues of some of their classic albums (Sailin’ Shoes, Dixie Chicken, and Waiting for Columbus). Audience response has been rapturous. The band builds on a deep, over 50-year history. Little Feat used a combination of elite musicianship and brilliant, idiosyncratic songwriting to create a repertoire that transcends all boundaries. California rock, funk, folk, jazz, country and rockabilly mixed with New Orleans swamp boogie led to a powerful sound that has kept the audience dancing for decades. Their groove – in songs like “Dixie Chicken,” “Spanish Moon,” “Fat Man in the Bathtub,” and “Feats Don’t Fail Me Now” is a continuous thread of excellence that embraces the qualities of exploration that make up Little Feat, its music, while honoring their brothers that began this journey decades ago: Lowell George, Richie Hayward, and Paul Barrere. Their legacy is honest and durable with no end in sight. It has always been about the songs and musicianship. They’re in top form now with Scott Sharrard on lead guitar/vox and Tony Leone on drums/vox, and with founder Bill Payne on keys/vox, Fred Tackett on guitars/vox, Kenny Gradney on bass, and Sam Clayton on percussion/vox.

‘THE PLAIN AND SIMPLE GUIDE TO MUSIC PUBLISHING’ By Veteran Music Publisher And Industry Expert Randall Wixen Arrives June 28 In A Fifth Edition

DT: JUNE 18, 2024

FM: MITCH SCHNEIDER

‘THE PLAIN AND SIMPLE GUIDE TO MUSIC PUBLISHING’
BY VETERAN MUSIC PUBLISHER AND INDUSTRY EXPERT
RANDALL WIXEN
ARRIVES ON JUNE 28 IN A FIFTH EDITION VIA HAL LEONARD

A book cover with text Description automatically generated

“[This book] could be the most valuable writing partner you’ll ever hook up with.”
—Tom Petty, from the foreword to THE PLAIN AND SIMPLE GUIDE TO MUSIC PUBLISHING

The fifth edition of veteran music publisher and industry expert RANDALL WIXEN’s widely praised book THE PLAIN AND SIMPLE GUIDE TO MUSIC PUBLISHING (Hal Leonard, $29.99) arrives on June 28, with an array of new topics pegged to the ever-changing music industry landscape. Previous editions of this book have made it the industry standard publishing guide and it is used frequently as the standard music publishing text in music industry programs. The book will be available at all major chains, including the Hal Leonard website and Amazon.

Explaining the need for an expanded fifth edition of THE PLAIN AND SIMPLE GUIDE TO MUSIC PUBLISHING, WIXEN says, “This fifth edition of THE PLAIN AND SIMPLE GUIDE TO MUSIC PUBLISHING constitutes the biggest change of any edition of this book since the first. There have been so many changes in music publishing over the past few years including two CRB hearings and the results of various appeals to the rates which those hearings determined, the passage of the music modernization act, the operation of the MLC, the conversion of BMI from a non-profit organization to a for-profit organization, the mania and hype for catalog sales and much much more. Anyone seeking to operate in or make meaningful decisions about music publishing matters needs the information this updated book contains.”

THE PLAIN AND SIMPLE GUIDE TO MUSIC PUBLISHING, which explains essential information about protecting and profiting from music copyrights, is written for the lay musician/songwriter but with enough substance to be worthwhile for those already holding positions within the business. The late, great Ray Manzarek of the Doors described previous editions of WIXEN’s book as “Clear, lucid, tight, and concise.” With hundreds of actual reviews on Amazon, the fourth edition garnered a 4.6 star rating out of 5.

RANDALL WIXEN, one of the most respected names in the music industry, is the founder of Wixen Music Publishing, Inc. in Los Angeles. With a sister company, Wixen Music UK Ltd. in London, the companies administer the song catalogs of many top artists from the last 50 years, ranging from Santana, the Doors, Missy Elliot and Al Green, to the Black Keys, Andrew Bird, Angel Olsen, and Sturgill Simpson.

MORE PRAISE FOR THE PLAIN AND SIMPLE GUIDE TO MUSIC PUBLISHING:

“Dan and I have trusted Randall Wixen with administrating our publishing for over 15 years. His knowledge and guidance have been invaluable to us and helped us really have a grasp on a very complicated area of the music business.”
—Patrick Carney, The Black Keys

“There isn’t anyone more knowledgeable about music publishing. Randall is ‘the man.’ He has guided The Doors catalogue for many years, and we feel quite secure and safe that it’s in the right hands. What better author to hold your hand through the maze of music publishing?”
—John Densmore, The Doors

Following successful runs in Latin America (Peru, Chile, Argentina, Brazil and México) and Europe (Sweden, Italy, France, Germany, and more), multi-platinum-selling and GRAMMY® Award-winning rockers MEGADETH will return to the North America this summer for their 34-date “Destroy All Enemies” trek. The Live Nation-produced tour, with special guests Mudvayne and All That Remains, kicks off August 2 in Rogers, Arkansas before wrapping in Nashville, Tennessee on September 28. Additional tour stops include Los Angeles (two shows), Las Vegas, Boston, St. Louis and many more (the full itinerary is below). Tickets and additional information for all the dates is available HERE.

For the live shows, MEGADETH founder and frontman Dave Mustaine and his bandmates will perform classic hits from Rust In Peace, Countdown to Extinction, and more from the band’s extensive catalog, along with material from their latest studio album THE SICK, THE DYING… AND THE DEAD! featuring some of Mustaine’s strongest-ever songwriting.

“We are all playing tight, and that has made it possible for me to really focus on solos and singing, we are playing more songs than ever before, and we are closer to each other, onstage AND off,” shares Mustaine. “I’m excited to see Mudvayne, and All That Remains. Join us as we DESTROY ALL ENEMIES.”

MEGADETH are renowned for their unparalleled energy and mastery on stage. In 2023, the band dominated arenas and festivals, reaffirming its status as one of heavy metal’s most formidable live acts. Dubbed “as ferocious and hard-hitting as ever” by AllMusic, MEGADETH enjoyed sold-out shows and critical acclaim on the latest run of the “Crush The World” Tour captivating audiences and showcasing the latest and greatest hits.

BAND EXTEND SUMMER HEADLINING TOUR DATES THROUGHOUT AUGUST ACROSS U.S.

A white packet with red text Description automatically generated

With an appetite for guitar-driven, raw, amplified rock and roll, THE BLACK MOODS deliver a serving of “Sugar”—their latest track out now across all digital platforms. Stream/download it now at https://orcd.co/sugartbm. “Sugar” marks the second sampling of new music from THE BLACK MOODS’ forthcoming third studio album due later this year. The new single follows the melodic-driven debut track “Heaven” released this past March which explored a more experimental sound. The trio—vocalist/guitarist Josh Kennedy, drummer Chico Diaz, and bassist Jordan Hoffman—have also shared the thrilling, Wild West-themed music video for “SUGAR,” which can be seen streaming below or directly via the band’s YouTube HERE. Directed by Michael Levine (Skillet, Peyton Parrish), the video was filmed at Rawhide Western Town in Chandler, AZ and shares the story of a classic bank heist with a twist.

“‘Sugar’ is definitely one of the sexiest songs we’ve written,” says Kennedy. “The tempo and the groove are a sensual foundation for the melody and lyrics. Lyrically, I think it paints a picture of passion and danger. The lyric, ‘Don’t forget I’m kinda crazy, cinematic, a little magic’ lends its hand to a bit of the dramatic. I feel it sets the scene for the song.”

THE BLACK MOODS have also announced additional dates for their headlining summer tour. The band will head to Monett, MO on July 5 and play across the Midwest and East Coast until August 11 in Madison, WI. They’ve also announced a headlining weekend of shows in Pinetop-Lakeside, AZ in September with special guests to be announced. See full dates listed below. THE BLACK MOODS recently opened for ZZ TOP and Rick Springfield and have previously toured across the U.S. with acts including Shinedown, 311, Godsmack, Collective Soul, Jane’s Addiction, The Dead Daisies, and Gin Blossoms, along with appearances at rock festivals including Aftershock and KUPD’s UFEST.

THE BLACK MOODS’ acclaimed 2020 album SUNSHINE earned the band four Top 30 singles–including their first-ever Top 20 charting hit with title track, “Sunshine,” which peaked at #16 on Billboard’s Mainstream Rock radio charts. The trio released their fourth album INTO THE NIGHT in 2022 via Wit Hustle/The Orchard/Steelhorse Entertainment with Grammy Award-nominated producer Johnny “K” Karkazis (Disturbed, 3 Doors Down) which was lauded by Metal Edge Magazine as “raw, riff-heavy, blues-drenched rock delivered with a nod to the classic acts that came before them, but filtered through a youthful, high-energy lens.” In 2023 the band teamed up with The Doors’ guitarist Robby Krieger to record an electrifying cover of The Doors’ 1970’s hit “Roadhouse Blues” with guest vocals from rock singer-songwriter Diamante.
