By The Rock-It Scientist | January 21st 2016

In 2011 Esperanza Spalding won a Grammy for Best New Artist against Drake, Florence + The Machine, Justin Bieber, and Mumford & Sons.  This Berklee College alumni surprised everyone including me.  I was wondering, how come I never heard from Esperanza Spalding and how good is her music that she beat all these other artist that I did heard of.
I went and found her music and I listened.  Oh my goodness, it was good, real good.  This wasn't regular Jazz music, she definitely had influence from other music including pop and she is a beautiful lady as well.  I like her style, I became a fan.  Now Esperanza is out with a new video and song, "Good Lava" and you have to check it out.

Labelle and Jean Beaulne; two childhood friends. Post the
splitting up of the group, Angélil joined with best friend,
Guy Cloutier to become managers for artist. The two
managed Québec entertainers René Simard and
Ginette Reno. In 1981, Angélil, would fly solo to manage
artist on his own. 
In late 1980, he would meet a preteen; Celine Dion.
He fell in awe of her voice after hearing a demo tape of
hers, which was sent to him from Dion and her parents.
He would then, become her manager and

In 1998, Angélil was diagnosed with throat cancer and
defeated it just one year later, only for the cancer to
return and defeat him.

He is remembered by (wife) Celine Dion, (son)
René-Charles, (son) Eddy and (son) Nelson.

René Angélil will surely be missed.

New Album Release: "Don't Look Back" by @RobbyJohnson

by Mister Promo | January 12, 2016

Robby Johnson

If you are familiar with the dialect of Robby Johnson, I bet you would have never guessed that he grew up a French Canadian.
Growing up in a French province in Canada, Robby learned to rid himself of his accent by watching American television. Along with American TV he also listen to a wide range of music. Above all the various genres, he found himself gravitating more toward country music. He began to appreciate it and fell in love with all that it had to offer.

"It's music that is healing. It resonated with me and drew me in."
~ Robby J.
~~~~~~~~~~
The track below is a song titled "Shady".
It was released on YouTube as a lyric video on July 1, 2015.


~~~~~~~~~~

Robby was a shy child living a poverty stricken life. With never letting go of his imagination and holding tight to his dream he was well and able to keep hope alive. He believed that his future would result in him becoming the best he could be. In whatever best that may be.

One year, on Christmas, he received a gift that would ultimately set his life on a different path. This gift was a paid demo session. It was through this experience that lead him to realize within himself was a gift as well; his voice.

In 2012, he quit his life in Canada, traveled South, stopped in Tennessee, recorded more songs and before he knew it, Nashville became his new home.


Today, however, is the release of his new album titled "Don't Look Back".
If you became fond of his lyrics and sound in the video above, then by all means, this album will be a great purchase for you.

What are you waiting for? Go for it.
And while you're at it, stay up-to-date with him through links below.
