The two pair up for 25th installment of groundbreaking web series

Fall Out Boy vocalist Patrick Stump writes most of the music for his platinum-plus Chicago rock band, but he’s also a closet R&B/soul fan who has produced tracks for fellow Windy City rapper Lupe Fiasco, and is a longtime fan of Daryl Hall’s music, which makes him the perfect guest for the 25th and latest installment of Live From Daryl’s House.

“As a musician, I can’t fathom a show more fun to play than Live From Daryl’s House,” says Stump about his experience playing with Daryl and his band, including T-Bone Wolk, on the web series.

“Patrick Stump is one soulful vocalist,” says Daryl admiringly. “I was really impressed with his grasp of R&B and it turned out we shared a love for a great deal of the same music.”

Watch video promo – Episode 25:

As a producer, Stump has worked with such bands as Gym Class Heroes, whose vocalist Travis McCoy is also an unabashed Daryl Hall fan and a participant in a previous Live From Daryl’s House.

Fall Out Boy guitarist Joe Trohman calls him “a musical genius, a mad scientist,” while noted producer/performer Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds says, “Patrick is one of the hottest dudes I’ve seen in a long time… He’s got a great voice and a tremendous amount of talent.” Fall Out Boy’s fifth album, Folie a Deux, was released last December, producing the hit singles, “I Don’t Care” and “America’s Suitehearts.”

Stump puts that great voice straight to work, joining Daryl in a seven-song set highlighted by singles “Out of Touch” and “Guessing Games,” the latter from the H2O album. Among the Fall Out Boy songs Daryl and Patrick perform are versions of “I Don’t Care,” “What a Catch, Donny” and “Sugar, We’re Goin Down” along with a cover of Jimmy Ruffin’s soul classic, “What Becomes of the Broken-Hearted.”

Past episodes of Live from Daryl’s House have featured a mix of well-known performers like Smokey Robinson, The Doors’ Robby Krieger and Ray Manzarek, Nick Lowe, K.T. Tunstall, Todd Rundgren, Gym Class Heroes’ Travis McCoy, Finger Eleven’s James Black and Rick Jackett and the Bacon Brothers, along with newcomers such as Philly soul singer Mutlu, Canadian techno-rockers Chromeo, MySpace pop-rock phenom Eric Hutchinson, Cash Money rocker Kevin Rudolf, Wind-up Records’ Chicago rockers Company of Thieves, Bay Area singer/songwriter Matt Nathanson, Charlottesville, VA’s rising Parachute, Chicago rock band Plain White T’s and highly touted tunesmith Diane Birch.

Live from Daryl’s House started with Daryl’s “light-bulb moment” idea of “playing music with my friends and putting it up on the Internet,” and the show has subsequently been praised by such varied media outlets as Rolling Stone, Spin, Daily Variety, CNN, BBC, Yahoo and the influential Lefsetz Letter.

Bursting back onto the scene with their slick new single “Since You Went Away”, the multi-award winning collective, So Solid, have returned to reclaim their thrones as UK hip hop royalty. The 11th of January sees this smash hit single released to the airwaves on record label Mega & Co via IMS / Nova.

So Solid on amazon.co.uk

Exploding into the mainstream with their smash hit single “21 Seconds” in 2001, So Solid were hailed as the Wu Tang of two-step. Their take on UK garage was like nothing else the UK had ever heard.

They released a multi-platinum selling album and were awarded numerous accolades for their groundbreaking music, including Best UK Garage Act at the MOBOs in 2001 and 2002 as well as Best British Video at the BRITS 2002.

Now the collective are back to fill the void left on the UK urban music scene after their 5 year absence. “Since You Went Away” proves that the collective are a force to be reckoned with, moving with ease from their garage roots into an immaculate slice of RnB magic.

Watch “Since You Went Away” video:

During this time the current line-up – Mega, Lisa Maffia and MC Romeo – have all been keeping themselves busy with a wide range of ventures.

Founding member Mega has made various appearances on TV including BBC2’s The Verdict in 2007 and Never Mind The Buzzcocks, but decided to embrace his entrepreneurial skills by creating his own music and publishing company, a clothing line and is setting up a number of charities. Megaman is on the road to becoming highly respected business role model for young Britain.

The ‘First Lady’ of So Solid, Lisa Maffia forged a successful solo career for herself achieving 2 Top 10 singles and a slot supporting Christina Aguilera on her stadium European tour. Lisa gained her very own MOBO award in 2003 for Best UK Garage Act. In 2005 she set up her own independent record label, Maffia Recordz, which became home to artists such as Northstar and fellow So Solid member MC Romeo. In October 2008, Lisa won ITV2’s Celeb Air, and has since made several TV appearances including Never Mind the Buzzcocks.

MC Romeo also embarked on a solo career and achieved UK chart success with the hit singles “Romeo Dunn” and “It’s All Gravy” featuring American R&B songstress Christina Milian. Romeo’s popularity even landed him his own TV game show on Channel 4, ‘Fool Around with Romeo’, in which he was put into a big brother style environment with four girls and had to guess which of them was single. A regular in the pages of GQ, FHM and Glamour, he’s also graced our TV screens with the BBC’s ‘Don’t Tell the Bride’.

Despite all their successes in their solo projects, So Solid are back together and ready to unleash their fresh new sound on the British music scene.

Originally spawned from San Diego State University’s infamous party scene, Fight Fair’s members came together with a wide range of influences from pop-punk, screamo, hip-hop, hardcore, emo and more.

Lead vocalist Alex Bigman describes the bands sound as “uplifting and positive while maintaining the aggressive sound we grew up with.” Taking influences from early 1960s surf pop rock and traditional ’70s powerpop punk for the full length, Bigman states, “don’t be surprised to hear some Beach Boys style harmonies; no one will be able to compare it to anything else.”

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.

Guitar Center Announces King of the Blues Champion!

Kirby Kelly Crowned America’s Top Undiscovered Blues Guitarist in World’s Largest Guitar Competition!

On Thursday November 12th in front of a capacity crowd at House of Blues in Hollywood CA, Kirby Kelly of Sherman, Texas beat out more than 4,000 guitarists to be crowned Guitar Center’s 2009 King of the Blues.

Kirby Kelly competed against four other undiscovered blues guitarists from all across the country to a panel of celebrity judges that included Jimmy Vivino of the Tonight Show Band, Elliot Easton of The Cars, accomplished session musician Blues Saraceno, blues legend Hubert Sumlin of Howlin’ Wolf and Muddy Waters, renowned blues guitarist Kenny Wayne Shepherd, Grammy Award winner Pete Anderson, Steve Lukather of Toto, Editor-in-Chief of Guitar World Brad Tolinski, and Dweezil Zappa.

Watch video footage of Kirby Kelly’s performance at The House of Blues in Los Angeles, on BandWeblogs.com:

Hosted by Grammy-Nominated blues guitarist Kenny Wayne Shepherd, the event was a celebration of guitar and the music (The Blues) that has defined and influenced generations of musicians and all of today’s popular music.

Grammy Award winning producer and guitarist Pete Anderson kicked-off the show with a set of red-hot blues, which was followed by the King of the Blues final competition where each of five contestants fronted a vintage black tuxedo-clad live band lead by Pete Anderson.

Performing to a live rendition of 1 of the 25 official King of the Blues backing-tracks, the five contestants also were required to perform a two-minute solo-performance on a Gibson acoustic guitar to display their ability to master two major aspects of the guitar.

Following the contestants’ performances Guitar Center’s King of the Blues Finals culminated with an electrifying performance by blues great Joe Bonamassa, who invited a series of surprise special guest musicians to join him on-stage for an exclusive collaboration which included Hubert Sumlin, Steve Lukather, Jimmy Vivino, Elliot Easton, and Glenn Hughes of Deep Purple and Black Sabbath.

Kelly’s victory was his crowning moment on the long road to being named Guitar Center’s King of the Blues. A life-long blues player, Kirby Kelly has been playing the blues for his family and friends for years.

Entered by a friend in the King of the Blues competition, Kelly beat out over 4,000 other guitarists in five rounds of grueling competition. After his victory, Kelly was awarded an impressive package of prizes, including $25,000 cash, along with a Gibson ‘59 Les Paul reissue guitar, a $2,500 Levi’s® shopping spree, a Marshall Vintage Modern 50 watt half stack, a Boss GT-10 Guitar Multi Effects Pedal, a feature in Guitar World magazine, worldwide distribution of their music in iTunes and more, plus endorsement deals from Ernie Ball, Marshall Amplification, VOX Amplification and Gibson. Additional regional, district and local prize packages were also awarded, thanks to the generous support of Gibson Guitar, Levi’s®, Ernie Ball, Marshall, Boss, VOX, Guitar World Magazine and TuneCore, all of whom are proud partners of Guitar Center’s King of the Blues.

Like Guitar Center’s other talent search competitions – the legendary Drum-Off (now in its 21st year), and the recently launched On-Stage, King of the Blues is part of Guitar Center’s ongoing mission to provide emerging artists and musicians with career-altering opportunities and vehicles to achieve success.

Introduced in 2006, King of the Blues is more than just a competition to find the most technically skilled players. The King of the Blues is designed to seek out the most passionate, innovative and authentic guitar players and give them a shot at stardom. For example, previous King of the Blues Winner, Aaron Loesch, was invited to perform at Eric Clapton’s Crossroads Festival in front of over 25,000 attendees.

Some of today’s most iconic and groundbreaking artists, including BB King, John Mayer, The Black Crowes, Kenny Wayne Shepherd and Hubert Sumlin have participated at past King of the Blues events.

With “The Blues” being the foundation for nearly all of today’s popular music, the search for the nation’s greatest undiscovered blues guitarist is has consistently unearthed a goldmine of unsigned talent, some of whom are destined to become tomorrow’s legends.
