Keyboard City out February 2, 2010 via Quannum/Various Music

Carlos Santana’s son readies solo debut album

Music is a burst of choices. Not only what note to play when and with what instrument, but whether to play a note at all.

Salvador Santana, the 26-year-old keyboardist, vocalist, composer, and songwriter with strong Bay Area roots, knows what it means to navigate the infinite options of music. His 2008 project with the Salvador Santana Band – simply called SSB – pursued the scope of his ability. But for Santana, it wasn’t enough. He has no choice but to push himself further.

Watch video – Salvador Santana in the studio with GZA:

Collaboration has always been the centerpiece of his creations, and this passion manifested his solo debut ‘Keyboard City’ around the inspirations of a few legends: Bay Area MC/producer Del the Funky Homosapien who helped hone in Santana’s writing skills, Beastie Boy studio wizard Money Mark, and GZA of the Wu-Tang Clan.

The legendary founder of the Wu-Tang Clan rallied support around the album by featuring himself on remix of the title track “Keyboard City” earlier this fall.

The long anticipated debut hits the streets in February of 2010 followed by extensive touring with his keyboard-laden band featuring a three-person keyboard assault with Santana at the head.

Money Mark inspired Santana in a beautiful way during the creation process. “With all the people I’ve ever collaborated with or just working by myself, I have never produced so many ideas into songs as I have during these Money Mark sessions. That guy is just a machine,” said Santana.

Money Mark opened up a new way of recording that was previously unknown to Santana. “He has mentored me by showing me that it’s cool to be all over the pace. It’s cool to sit there and work on a song, then out of nowhere, interrupt that flow and work on another idea. To just go with it.”, Santana elaborates.

Santana is pushed by a need to step out of his comfort zone in a quest for new ideas. Easy going and humble, Santana exudes the Bay Area vibe. He began playing the drums at age three – sitting on his father’s lap, controlling the snare and tom, as his father worked the hi-hat and kick drum – but his true love was discovered when he began taking piano lessons when he was six. Later, he studied at San Francisco’s heralded School of the Arts before attending Cal Arts in Valencia, CA.

His education, passion and lineage has turned Santana into a monster on the keys, leading him to say that he’s “a musician first, a vocalist second and a performer second-and-a-half.”

Music truly thrives in his veins. His maternal grandfather was blues pioneer Saunders King and his paternal grandfather was the internationally celebrated violinist and mariachi bandleader Jose Santana. And, of course, his father is 10X Grammy-winning Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Carlos Santana … who’s also a frequent collaborator (Salvador co-wrote “El Farol” from 1999’s smash album Supernatural).

But with his upcoming solo project, Salvador Santana will truly become a brand of his own.

“With the Salvador Santana Band record I was very passive and insecure, only because I wasn’t listening to my gut, allowing my second opinions to get to me. Knowing what I know now, I could have played that part better. I don’t ever want to have that feeling ever again.”

In addition to his musical desires, Santana has worldly efforts on his mind. After a trip to South Africa and inspiring work with Artists for a New South Africa (ANSA), something triggered inside of Santana to make sure his music wasn’t only about personal glory.

Once the record is released and he begins touring the project, Salvador will be posting various non-profit organizations on his website that will receive a percentage of the profits. “I want to use music in a positive way, and give back to people in need. There can never be enough people who do that.” And there can never be enough musicians pushing their art to the brink.

CD and album downloads available at www.bobseger.com November 30th

In a nod to his loyal heartland following, GRAMMY® winner and Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee Bob Seger will make his new album, Early Seger Vol. 1, available to Midwestern fans through Meijer, the Grand Rapids, Mich-based retailer with 190 supercenters located in Michigan, Indiana, Illinois, Ohio and Kentucky.

Buy Music:

Bob Seger on amazon.com

The album, which features recently remastered versions of numerous classic Bob Seger songs from the early 1970s and four previously unreleased recordings, will be available at Meijer’s beginning November 24th.

Starting the following Monday, November 30, 2009, fans can purchase the CD or a full album download at the artist’s recently re-launched website, www.bobseger.com, where snippets of each of the 10 songs can currently be heard.

The multi-Platinum rocker comes full circle with the album, returning to the Hideout Records label, which released his early singles and several of his early albums.

In September, Seger entered Kid Rock’s Allen Roadhouse studio and Yessian Studios in suburban Detroit to re-record elements of four previously unreleased tracks for the collection: “Gets Ya Pumpin’,” “Star Tonight,” “Wildfire” and “Days When the Rain Would Come.”

While in the studio, Seger also re-recorded much of “Long Song Comin’” from 1974’s Seven. In addition, Early Seger Vol. 1 includes five remastered tracks – “Someday” and his version of Tim Hardin’s “If I Were A Carpenter” from Smokin’ O.P’s (released in 1972), Seger’s cover of the Allman Brothers Band’s “Midnight Rider” from Back in ‘72 (1973) and “Get Out Of Denver” and “U.M.C. (Upper Middle Class)” from Seven. The three albums preceded Beautiful Loser, his 1975 breakthrough record.

The cover for the new collection features a photo of Seger shot by Tom Weschler, who spent more than 10 years working as tour manager and photographer during Seger’s hard-gigging early days.

The packaging features photos from Weschler’s new book, “Travelin’ Man: On the Road and Behind the Scenes With Bob Seger,” co-authored with award-winning music journalist Gary Graff. The book features Weschler’s photographs, text by Graff, a foreword by John Mellencamp, and an afterword by Kid Rock. The book was released last month and has spent 5 weeks at #1 on the U.S. Public University Presses sales chart.

The track listing for Early Seger Vol. 1 follows below, with historical information noted in parenthesis:

1. Midnight Rider (remastered from original Back in ‘72 tapes)
2. If I Were A Carpenter (remastered from original Smokin’ O.P’s tapes)
3. Get Out Of Denver (remastered from original Seven tapes)
4. Someday (remastered from original Smokin’ O.P.’s tapes)
5. U.M.C. (Upper Middle Class) (remastered from original Seven tapes)
6. Long Song Comin’ (originally appeared on Seven; extensively re-recorded for Early Seger Vol. 1)
7. Star Tonight (Seger recording previously unreleased; first released as a cover by Don Johnson for his 1986 album, Heartbeat)
8. Gets Ya Pumpin’ (previously unreleased; Seger’s earliest version of this song, written in 1973, was entitled “Pumpin’”)
9. Wildfire (previously unreleased)
10. Days When The Rain Would Come (previously unreleased)

Free download from new EELS record

EELS are currently offering a FREE download of the track “Little Bird” from their new record, ‘End Times,’ in anticipation of the album’s release via Vagrant Records.

Download page: “Little Bird” on Eels website

Vagrant Records will release EELS’ eighth studio album End Times on January 19.

Eels is the ever-changing project of singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Mark Oliver Everett (aka E).

Buy Music:

Eels on amazon.com

Eels on amazon.co.uk

End Times follows on the heels of Eels’ critically acclaimed 2009 release Hombre Lobo, hailed by Vanity Fair as “anti-anthems that get your dopamine pumping instead of your fist” and praised by Rolling Stone for its “muddy roadhouse rockers.”

Largely self-recorded on an old four track tape machine in the basement of Everett’s Los Angeles home, the “end times” he writes about isn’t “Mayan calendar conspiracy theory bullshit,” says Everett, but, “the state of the desperate times we live in. The bottom line-ness of it all.”

While Hombre Lobo was written from the point of view of a fictional character (namely, the Dog Faced Boy of Eels’ 2001 album Souljacker), End Times is purely real life as Everett sees it: a “divorce album” with a modern twist. He equates his personal loss with the world he lives in losing its integrity. This isn’t Everett’s first break-up record. His 1993 solo effort, Broken Toy Shop, chronicled the broken heart of a young man in his twenties. End Times focuses on the loss of a middle-aged man growing as an artist. The loss has more weight.

As for the timing of the release, “I felt guilty about the long gap between the last two albums so I’m making up for lost time,” Everett says. The longest gap between Eels albums (four years between the 2005 release Blinking Lights and Other Revelations and the 2009 Hombre Lobo) is being followed by the shortest (six months between Hombre Lobo and End Times).

During the four years prior to Hombre Lobo Everett embarked on a number of projects including his acclaimed book Things the Grandchildren Should Know and the BBC produced multiple-award winning Parallel Worlds, Parallel Lives documentary film about Everett and his quantum physicist father, Hugh Everett III, which was broadcast on PBS’ Nova series in the fall of 2008.

Everett says he’s now “back to my real job: making music full time.”

Embracing elements of rock, funk, rap and soul, these seven individuals have created something you haven’t heard before.

Paper Tongues was officially born in 2007 on the streets of Charlotte, North Carolina. And the music is described as a soundtrack for dancing, crying, loving and living.

Paper Tongues – Aswan North, Devin Forbes, Cody Blackler, Joey Signa, Clayton Simon, Jordan Hardee and Danny Santell – are a collective of artists, and their first record is their first masterpiece.

A wide variety of influences inform Aswan’s vibrant, vivacious vocal style, which falls somewhere between Al Green’s Sultry falsetto and Steve Perry’s uplifting bravado. “Kool and the Gang and Grandmaster Flash were hugely influential. Anything out there with a great hook grabs my attention. As a kid, there was a ton of country music around me – Ricky Skaggs, Kenny Rogers, Hank Williams Jr., Loretta Lyn, and Conway Twitty. I took all that in too, and it helped me write lyrics.”

Ultimately, for Aswan and Co. Paper Tongues is a way of life. “We want fans to walk away from our music with that good feeling. We think our music can bring healing for a group of people, a society, bad politics and artists that feel hopeless. Paper Tongues’ music should heal you and make you take a chance again.”

Working with producers Brian West (Nelly Furtado, K’Naan, Bela Fleck), Mark Endert (Maroon 5, Gavin DeGraw, Madonna), John Fields (Switchfoot, Jimmy Eat World), Paper Tongues crafted an album that’s bustling with energy. However, there’s a deeper purpose for the band. Keyboardist Cody Blackler explains, “It’s rock music for sure, but we also want to bring something new.”

Welcome to rock n’ roll’s best hope for evolution. Open up for Paper Tongues.
