Loston Harris II is one of the hottest new pianists on the scene today in the U.S.A. The 27 year old virtuoso is wise beyond his years with stylings reminiscient of the great Ahmad Jamal. Trained under Geri Allen among others, it was Ellis Marsalis who first encouraged Harris to put down the drums, his instrument of preference in high school and college, and pursue the piano. Harris studied under Marsalis and would eventually make his international debut playing with his mentor's son, Wynton Marsalis. Harris has not only distinguished himself as a future great performer but as a potentially masterful composer as well. Of the ten tunes on this debut CD, eight of the tracks are originals composed by Harris. He's a real comer that you won't want to miss. Catch him in his early days and watch him develop. And remember where you heard about him first...on Totown Records. We licensed the original product for manufacturing and distribution from our good friend and associate Ed Wiley III, president of Swing Records in Washington. D.C. Ed was the first to record Harris and must be credited with this great discovery. Check it out! Also check our Video screening room in the near future for video coverage of Harris at work with Wynton Marsalis. (Mal Adams -President Totown Records)
Every once in a great while comes an artist in the music business who you can just feel is going to be around for a long time. Donyale Fredericks is one such artist. Her style is often compared to the power and energy of Patti LaBelle with the range and smooth control of Whitney Houston. But this new star on the horizon brings something all her own to the musical party. She is at once funky, bluesy, silky-soulful and always as sensuous as a jazz instumentalist with the stuff she uses in communicating her music to audiences all over the world. She is probably recognized more in Japan than in the United States at this point, but that won't last long. Now touring the U.S. to promote her debut CD, she is being met with rave reviews and elated audiences who can't seem to get enough of her powerful stuff. Born and raised in Texas, Donyale now makes her home in Atlanta, GA. when she's not knocking out houses in France and Japan. Totown Records is determined, with this new project, to bring her back home to America where her music originated. See for yourself. This is a must listen! Put your order in Now and watch your body rock to the bumpin' sounds of "Hey Lover" on Totown Records.
Teeluv (aka Gary Timothy Williams) was introduced to the Totown movement by our Vice President and Music Director, Michael B. Adams II. He was lead vocalist for Mike's band "ETC", Entertainment with a Touch of Class. Teeluv combines powerful and soulful vocals with an ability to entertain on stage that has become his trademark. His latest CD is exemplary of his capabilities in the studio as well. For inquiries about this project contact Totown Records at our e-mail address: totown@hotmail.com.
