Nerves Of Steel – Hollie Steel

December 31, 2009 By 3 Comments

Hollie Steel BGT TourLike Americans, the British love talent and reality shows, making them quite the rage across the pond.  One of the more popular shows is Britain’s Got Talent, which is like American Idol but they allow different kinds of performers to compete, making it not just a singing competition.  Unlike American Idol, they allow any age to compete as long as they have the talent to move to the next round.  However, here is a similiarity between the two shows: on the judging panel is the man who makes them quiver, Simon Cowell.

About a year and a half ago the multi-decked theater was sold out.  The judges sat waiting for their next performer in the initial audition, when out comes a ten-year-old dressed in ballerina garb and a beautiful tiara that sat upon her head, sparkling in the stage lights.  The judges ask her, “What’s your name?” and with a soft English accent she mutters, Hollie Steel.  Little Hollie points off stage to queue the music, and starts to perform a interpretive ballet dance.  The judges sit back with baited breath knowing she will probably sing, mainly because she has a small head mounted microphone on.  Her dance didn’t last long before coming to a complete stop.  She then looks at the audience, cool and collected, and belts out one of the most amazing sounds ever heard.  Simon Cowell’s eyes grow wide in shock over the vocals of this young lady, and with a heart felt passion she sings, “I Could Have Danced All Night.”  That performance won her a trip to the next round, allowing her to compete in the finals last year.  Sadly, she didn’t win the competition, but is proud to say she made it farther than she ever expected.

Talking with Hollie, I discovered she originally was in ballet.  She loves to dance which frees her spirit, allowing her to express herself through her movements.  I don’t know too many young ladies who don’t want to be beautiful ballerinas performing on stage.  I know many also that wish to be singers, performing for their adoring fans.  Hollie, at the age of ten, got that chance for both of her loves which soared her into the hearts of millions.  Singing came later, but it was something she loved to do, so combining the two was like the cherry on the cake for Hollie.

Her appearance on Britain’s Got Talent led her to record her first album, set to be released in 2010; a feat Hollie is quite excited over and hopes the enthusiasm will trickle down into the album for her fans.  The album will contain mostly contemporary-crossover and opera-like compositions.  Granted, Hollie loves pop music and rock, but prefers to sing the music that expresses her young heart the best.

Despite the success, Hollie has a great head on her shoulders and hasn’t let the fame and success get to her.  When she is not singing, she loves playing with her teddies, listening to music, playing with her friends and doing what a typical now eleven-year-old girl would do.  She also loves spending time with her family, who have supported her all the way on this amazing journey.  If you see Hollie around town, or walking down the road she will gladly give you her autograph and thank the people who cherish her music.  That’s how you can tell she hasn’t let stardom affect her, which is also a sign of great parenting.

DSC_1720sHollie has performed on TV,  and has an album coming out this year, but believe it or not she still has one dream she hopes to fulfill in her new career.  Hollie wants to tour the U.S. and sing for her fans here in America.  Hollie’s mom says that she has a tremendous following here in the states, and is touched how the American people have taken Hollie into their hearts.  I have a great feeling that this will come true faster than she expects and she will get to greet those fans here face to face.

If you want to find out more about this amazing young lady, you can visit her official website and sign up for her fan club at www.holliesteel.org.uk and tell her how much her music touches your life.  There is no greater compliment than that for an artist.  Once you see her, you will know why she can capture your heart with her voice and charm and not ever have to meet you in person to do so.

Don’t forget to listen to her podcast where she sits down and talks with The Expressionist Magazine on “Artist One On One.”  The podcast is found on our podcast link, or you can search The Expressionist Magazine on iTunes.

Drifters- The Legend Continues

December 31, 2009 By Leave a Comment

copy_of_the_drifters-2It’s hard to believe that fifty-six years ago, five men would grace the country and the world with their amazing singing talent.  They would help define a new style of music called doo-wop, which was branching away from the traditional music like that of Bing Crosby, Frank Sinatra and even some of the big band and jazz era melodies.  This was a whole new style and look, complete with fancy stage outfits and fun lyrics you could dance to.  Those five men made up the legendary group called The Drifters, and their name says it best, they drifted right into our hearts.

Back in 1953, a man by the name of George Treadwell, creator of Atlantic Records, started a conversation with Clyde McPhatter to start a group.  This group was to be recorded with Atlantic Records, and McPhatter did just that, naming the group The Drifters. Their first hit would come three years later in 1956 called “Money Honey,” which also was their first number one hit.  The five man band became quite popular, and started a trend among other artists such as The Temptations and The Four Tops.

Clyde McPhatter wanted out, and the group would go down to four members and continue that way.  A few years after McPhatter left The Drifters, they started to get in trouble, showing up late for practice and even for some shows. George Treadwell wouldn’t stand for this kind of behavior and fired the whole band.  Infuriated with the band, Treadwell went across the street and hired a five man band called The Five Crowns to replace his Drifters.  That move would turn out to be special because they lifted The Drifters to super stardom.  In fact, in that new group was vocalist Ben E. King, also noted for his solo career following his stint with The Drifters, giving us a hit called “Stand By Me.”  The new line up included Ben E. King, Charlie Thomas, Doc Green, Elsbury Hobbs, and James “Poppa” Clark.

Ben E. King’s Drifter line up is commonly referred to as the “Golden Age” of The Drifters.  They produced great songs such as “Dance With Me,” “This Magic Moment,” “Save The Last Dance For Me,” and so many more.  During this time, this particular line up went into tumultuous situations, because many of the fans knew and adored the first line up giving this one grief.  This new group lasted only two years for a few reasons.  Lover Patterson, the road manager,  had a fallout with Treadwell.  King was under contract with Patterson when he was The Five Crowns, so Patterson refused to let King tour with the band.  King continued to record the songs for one year while another man, Johnny Williams, toured in his place.  To make matters worse, King asked Treadwell for his share of the royalties, which he was denied. King would go on to a very successful singles career.

Despite the fact their lead singer King was gone, Rudy Lewis took over in King’s spot and recorded hits like “On Broadway,” “Some Kind Of Wonderful,” and “Please Stay.”  The band would also find more changes in the future.  Hobbs was drafted and Tommy Evans from the original lineup came back to fill his spot.

Amazingly, the group started to tour in 1953 and still does so today, making them the oldest consecutively touring group in the world that we know about.   Currently, there is a new generation of Drifters.  George Treadwell is no longer with us, but his daughter Faye Treadwell continues the legacy.  She gets new band members from time to time.  Each Drifters member that is chosen must look similar to, and sound similar to the original Drifters to ensure the quality is maintained.  Today, that group has a new CD out titled, The Drifters – Five Decades and Moore.”

This new CD is a tribute to the late band member Johnny Moore.  It contains some of the classic hits from the original Drifters, with a few lost songs from the ’60s decade no one knew existed.  There are also some songs written and performed by the current Drifters line up. This CD can be obtained at Amazon.com, iTunes and their official website.

George Treadwell’s The Drifters would continue to morph members in and out, but they always kept to their roots and sang the songs that brought them to the level they are known for today.   The Drifters were inducted into the Vocal Group Hall of Fame in a few ways.  One way was as Ben E. King and The Drifters, and secondly as The Original Drifters (this one was a separate group run by original Drifter Bill Pinkney).  The Drifters would go on to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as well.

Destino3- Harmonic Popera At Its Best

December 31, 2009 By Leave a Comment

51osIGgxHkL._SS500_In the ’90s, boy bands were all the rage.  They made tween and teen girls fall to their knees with full shreaking screams.  They were pop sex icons put together by large pocketed conglomerates, with amazing sense of marketing.  The bands were like puppets; they all had very similar qualities and most of them sounded very much like the other.  Their voices and talent didn’t matter because their looks were what brought in the money, and when the looks faded and the next rage came about, they fell from grace.

Then, out of Canada, comes another boy band trio.  Before you roll your eyes, I must say they are nothing like the others. They call themselves Destino3.  Sure, they have incredible looks that make the women go nuts, have harmonic vocals that will soothe the savage beast, and unlike the other boy bands of the past, these guys sing something none of the other boy bands even dared to try… classical crossover.  They have everything the other bands don’t, and are set to stand the test of time because they attract the younger generation, but they also appeal to those who love opera, classical, and gospel music.

Their name translated means “destiny,” in both Italian and Spanish.  The name was chosen because they knew they were destined to be singers and perform what they love the most.  Destiny is exactly what they got.  They all had acclaimed solo careers and rich musical training before joining Destino3.  They all had various genre backgrounds such as pop, gospel, opera, and classical, that when combined, would make for a delightfully unique sound.  In turn, that would make them a household name.  The group was joined by Paul Ouellette, the mastermind and founder of Destino3.  He brought in Joey Niceforo and Hans Munoz to complete this dynamic trio.  They originally lost one of their first members, bringing in Munoz in his place.  Munoz brought a new pop style and sound to the band, as well as an amazing song writing ability that Destino3 hopes to utilize in the years to come.

It’s hard to believe they’ve been around since 2006, and started to sell out theaters and opera houses all over their native country of Canada.  The group realized they had a talent that the rest of the world needed to see, and in 2009 started to tour the United States.  Destino3 started a tour throughout the entire southeast, which has been a great success.  They are very honored that the rest of the world is starting see the gifts they bring to the music industry. Their music even brought them their most acclaimed performance to date; it took place in 2008 at the Beijing Summer Olympics.  Ouellette states the band was very honored to be a part of something so special.  It’s a once in a lifetime opportunity which made them feel like they earned a gold medal for their talents.  That performance put their music in front of the nations and set an international stage unlike any other.

In 2009, they released their first major debut CD titled, Forte.  It boasts an exotic name supported by the great variety of tracks contained on the disc.  It contains songs such as ” Adagio” and “Una Furtiva L’Agrima” that have an operatic feel.  Included as well is “Breathe Again,” originally recorded by Grammy Award winning Toni Braxton, thus showing the diversity of the album.  It even has the track “My Baby You,” in both English and French.

The band looks forward to seeing what 2010 has in store; the places they will travel to, the people they will meet.  They look forward to making songs that everyone can love, no matter what your musical style is.  We know that once you hear their soulful, harmonic voices you will be hooked on their “popera” sound and be a fan of Destino3 forever.

Fauxto Shop Deception

December 31, 2009 By Leave a Comment

ori_ab32b41a640bd8Just a few weeks ago a story surfaced, rocking the Internet.  It  involved ’60s supermodel Twiggy and an ad she was in promoting a skin care product.  The ad angered the UK government so greatly, they banned the use of photo manipulation advertisements in their country, citing it to be misleading and false.  The ad was for an Oil of Olay anti-aging cream that removes wrinkles and tightens the skin.  Twiggy was featured on the ad, being in her mid-50s, showing little to no crow’s feet wrinkles around the eyes, wrinkles at the corners of her cheeks or any other signs of aging. Instead, her skin looked radiant and young.  Without makeup to cover some of the lines, Twiggy actually does sport crow’s feet and wrinkles, but it doesn’t truly hinder her looks.

What we found was this ad was photoshopped to the max, giving a completely false result to what this cream does.  It made it look like it worked miracles when really it was a talented photoshop artist that made the product perform better than it actually does.  Unfortunately, people look at these ads and completely believe them which drives them to buy the product with sub-par results.  In defense of the company, everyone has different skin and in some people it may work wonders on even the deepest wrinkles and aging skin, and not touch someone with minor wrinkles at all.

Nevertheless, Twiggy was clearly doctored up in that photograph, so the government decided to do something about it. That brings me to a few critical points: 1. Should the government have the power to censor and ban this kind of thing no matter how blatant it is?  2. Should we really photoshop someone to the point they don’t even look the same?  3.  Is it the people’s fault for believing everything they see?

To point one, especially in the United States, we have the ability to be free and express ourselves.  Europe is not as free as we are; they are socialist in many to all aspects of government, and this is how the government can control the art and how it’s portrayed.  They have complete power over everything, silencing the right to speak freely and promote your art as you deem fit.  If the United States is going in this direction, you can see a serious problem coming our way. Sure we have the Constitution to protect us, but the government has already shown they don’t care what that document says.  In order to have a socialist government, the Constitution would have to be absolved or the government would not have sovereign power to do as they seek fit to control the aspects of our lives.  Is this really what we want?  Do you think the UK has overstepped their bounds?  Sure the ad is misleading, but do they have the right to censor it?

To point number two, the fashion and modeling industry is obsessed with perfection.  Women and men who are already as perfect as can be are doctored up to be extra perfect.  In my opinion, we are human and we all have some flaws, but those flaws are what makes us unique, special and beautiful in our own right.  If you want to remove a mole, pimple, freckle or scar I say go ahead, but to completely photoshop the skin from head to toe making it look plastic, or shrinking someone’s waist size to something they are not, does give off a deceptive persona which can be disappointing when we see these people in person.  It also sets a false standard of beauty that the model doesn’t even have that the rest of the world tries to mimic.  In doing so, they hurt themselves with unnecessary plastic surgery, expensive creams, and unhealthy diets all for the chance to look like the photoshopped model in the magazine.

That leads us to point number three.  With all the knowledge of photoshop being used in the fashion, marketing and promotion industry, it’s almost unimaginable that we would believe these people really look the way they do in the pictures.  I mean come on already, do you really think an anti-aging cream company would put someone on their ad that has less than perfect skin?  No, why even place the ad because nobody would give it a second look.  Since no one looks like that, they have to doctor the photo manipulation. It’s hard to believe some of us are this gullible and nieve to believe this garbage.  The best thing we can do is to say, “I’ll try it and see if the results are the same,” but to run out and expect the same results and get angry when it doesn’t happen is just plain stupid in my opinion.  Air Jordan shoes never made anyone jump like Michael Jordan.  Gatorade never made you perform any better, it just kept you from dehydrating.  So why are beauty creams and cosmetics any different?

It’s terrible that we have to doctor photos to show perfection, when perfection is already achieved with the natural beauty we possess.

Ethan’s Angels – Rockin’ For A Cure

December 15, 2009 By Leave a Comment

Angel Ella loving EthanFour years ago, a little boy was born into this world; a miracle to his family and a loving brother to his siblings.  Unfortunately, Ethan would never be able to tell his parents or brothers and sister he loves them.  He won’t be able to play video games or take part in any typical childhood activities because Ethan was born with a severe birth defect called Hypo-plastic Corpos Collossom.  However, that birth defect didn’t make Ethan any less human, or any less special than any other boy; in fact, it made him a champion.

Hyperplastic Corpus Corrosum  is an underdeveloped brain, specifically the part that connects the two hemispheres together, resulting in a failure to thrive.  Despite the circumstances, Ethan has overcome many obstacles and manages to fight for life.  He is a brave soul that just wants a chance to live a normal life, no matter the dismal prognosis of permanent brain damage.  Each day Ethan wakes up, and fights to keep his food down, as his parents feed him through a feeding tube.  He goes into an oxygen chamber for an hour each day, and once a week private nurses come in and give him blood transfusions.  Ethan also has a special teacher that visits his home once a week and works with him.  Ethan cannot speak or see well, has developed an immune deficiency, suffers from breathing problems, cannot hold his head up for long or even grab objects. It is heartwrenching to even mention the list of problems.  However, despite these challenges, on July 20, 2008 Ethan managed to smile for the very first time, showing the world he is happy and loves life.

For his parents, caring for Ethan is a 24 hour a day job, one they do without complaining or hesitation.  They love their son and will do anything for him, and that’s why they need to give Ethan a possible life saving procedure called Cord Blood Transfusion. They saved his cord blood when he was born, and that very blood could reverse many or all of his problems.  As a child, the blood is most useful at the age he is at, however, each day they wait the chances of recovery dwindle.  Many doctors in the U.S. won’t even do this 15 to 20 minute procedure that could save Ethan’s life, as they say the risks are too high.

Ethan & giraffeEthan’s mother says that he gets a blood transfusion every week, exposing him to possible disease and rejection.  This procedure is no different except it’s his own blood that has the possibility to heal him. To get this procedure they have to leave the country and go to China for a 15 minute infusion.  The procedure, with travel, costs $30,000.00.  This kind of money they must raise in order to help their son.  What really angers them is that this could be done right here in the United States. The goal is to find a U.S. doctor that will take the risk, stand up for Ethan and give him the procedure here (probably costing half of, or even a quarter of the price).  However, until that person steps up, China is their only bet.

The worst thing that could happen with this procedure is nothing; Ethan doesn’t get better at all.  On the other hand, the best case scenario would be that the nutrient rich blood could reverse all his problems making Ethan a healthy, young boy.  However, if Ethan only gains slight improvement, that will help his quality of life even in the smallest way, making the procedure well worth it.  That’s why on Saturday, December 19th, 2009 from 6:30 p.m. to midnight, local bands are going to come together to rock for a cure, raising money to help Ethan get that possible life saving procedure.

Holiday Mash-Up with Paul of Cannibal Corpse

December 9, 2009 By Leave a Comment

Drummer machine Paul Mazurkiewicz of death metallers Cannibal Corpse caught up with me while out at the band’s Hollywood stop on the current tour. To talk to me about the upcoming holiday season along with the good and the bad effects of the interviewing process and what the fans can expect from an overall Cannibal Corpse slaughter fest if not having already experienced one.

Cannibal Corpse Band PhotoHow was your Thanksgiving?

Paul: It was pretty uneventful but it was good. We had a day off after having 14 shows in a row. When out on the road I’m not with my family. So it was just another day but the fact that we had a day off was nice.

Looking forward to the remaining holiday season?

Paul: Of course we’ve been very busy while on this tour. We’re ending just before Christmas and everyone will be getting home in time for the holidays so they’ll be able to spend time with their family and loved ones so we’re all looking forward to that.

What do you hope to find underneath the Christmas tree come Christmas morning?

Paul: I don’t even know anymore to me I don’t want anything or need anything. I want to see my family, see my wife and daughter and can’t for that. That’s the most important thing to me.

What about your latest record, what can be said about it that hasn’t been covered?

Paul: I don’t know good question really. It’s a great record I think – we felt that we did good job on it. Eric doing the best he can to produce it. We’re happy it’s doing so well and we’re out on the road doing better than we ever have been so it’s a good feeling all around.

Out of all the members of Cannibal Corpse, who goes the longest without showering?

Paul: (Laughs) Probably George, sometimes most of us it’s hard to do because you go and shower the night before a show and then have to go and shower again afterwards – so it’s like pointless. I think it would be a safe answer to say though that George is indeed the one that’s gone the longest without showering. There are going to be days where all of us play not showering and then some where we have showered. I would hope I’m somewhat clean so I would wait it out after a while before needing to shower so it happens.

What have been your best and worst interview/fan experiences?

Paul: Ya know I guess the interviews would be a hit and miss. The Most we do is being one of those a hit and some are like the ones where they don’t even know who you are. It seems like I have some knowledge of who I’m going to talk too. But those are the types are the ones that seem the most pointless. As for fans 99% of the fans are great and down to earth who just want to meet you and have a good time and then get some that don’t know when to keep their mouth shut. You got to take the good with the bad with the business we’re dealing with here.

You’ve toured with pretty much everybody, who do you prefer touring with the most?

Paul: We have toured with a lot of bands and befriended a lot as well. That is also a hard question to answer. We’ve toured with so many but as us being fans of music we full filled our dream of getting to tour with Slayer and watch them perform every night was awesome and we’d love to do that again.

What’s it like going back to being a support act after so many years as a headliner?

Paul: It’s a little different as well. We’ve done headlining since the beginning but at the same time we’re one of the biggest death metal bands around so we look at it expanding the fan base as much as possible. Like we are today this tour is a combination so we got more an eventful chance. We’re not use to doing this type of thing but we’ll do it whenever we can and make it work.

There are of course the main songs that we’d “have to” perform and then there are the ones that we can toss to the side that wouldn’t matter as much as the main ones do. If we didn’t perform such songs as “Hammer Smash Face”, then we’d be facing a problem. I don’t think I could go without playing that song either way.

Who does most of the interviews while out on the road, and who do you usually get guys or girls or is it even?

Paul: It’s mostly I or Alex or George does a bunch as well. Unusually us three it’s always a mix. I’d say 60% male and 40% female it’s not like we’re just sticking with just females or just males. Everybody has their share.

Anything else you’d like to add?

Paul: Thanks for the support of death metal and Cannibal Corpse if it wasn’t for you guys we wouldn’t be here today so keep it brutal!

Backdrifter – Sum Of Influence Review

December 9, 2009 By 1 Comment

Backdrifter CDCOVERGrabbing their name from a lyric inspired by modern rockers Radiohead, the Culver City based act Backdrifter, from sunny California, formed in late 2008 and since then has not looked back. Steve Watkins and Nate Waxler formally of “The Hypothetical Band” had begun to search for what they knew would conclude their brand new formation Backdrifter.

Soon after the formation had come to a completion and thus the line-up was born, with drummer Terry Barajas, as well as singers Adriann Helton and Kryss Deetch. Now all that was left to do was to make music! This is of course what occurred and what lead the band to unleashing their smashing debut efforts “Sum of Influence”.

Comprising of 12 various tracks you’re divided up with your average rock blended in with some modern blues riffs with punk folk attitude driven in between. That showcases the real music being used here, like for instance, “The Great Divide”, “Sunny Days”, “Everything You Gave Away”, and “Stolen Air”, all consists of that same momentum the mellow pulsing rate of the drums with upbeat guitar riffs that tend to play against each other if not using an on and off type of method.

Lyrically the words are out spoken and overpower the music’s performance rating by drowning out the music the listener is hearing and replacing it rather than with a more aggressive affection. The listener hears what’s being said and can find themselves bobbing their head to each of the notes being played out its very catchy and makes the music bounce per each beat.

Backdrifter’s style is humble and calm breaking down the beat of the music in every which way possible never missing a beat let alone the mood you feel while listening in, makes these folk blues rockers rocking with absolute ease.
