“Stand Up” is the latest single from Sigler’s critically acclaimed 2015 CD, ‘Bundino’

Los Angeles, CA, July 27, 2016 – Four-time Grammy winning producer-singer-songwriter Bunny Sigler is proud to announce the release of his newest single, “Stand Up”, from his critically acclaimed 2015 album Bundino. “Stand Up” will be released on Friday, July 25. The prolific songwriter who helped shape the legendary “Philly Sound” hopes the track will serve as inspiration to his listeners to do what’s right.

“Stand Up” is an anthemic and extremely danceable song thanks to Sigler’s inspiring lyrics and the stellar production by Sigler and collaborator Noisette “Saint Man” St. Jean Jr. Sigler also turns in a vocal performance fully deserving of his “Mr. Emotion” nickname, all while stressing the importance of equality, education and respect. According to Sigler, the track “portrays the message that one should always stand up for his or her beliefs.” The closing track to Sigler’s latest album, Bundino, “Stand Up” features an infectious beat and soaring chorus that cement the song as an inspirational summer jam for fans of R&B, pop, and dance music.

Complete with soulful ballads, nostalgic and funky songs, Bunny Sigler hones in on a contemporary sound with his latest album Bundino, which delivers 14 brilliant R&B tracks. Released in May 2015, the album features Sigler’s signature croons and songwriting while paying homage to his 50+ year career in the music industry. Sigler also has a wide variety of videos available on his YouTube channel at: https://www.youtube.com/user/MrBunnySigler/. After recent performances in New Orleans, Philadelphia, and Spain, Sigler is ready to hit the road again and bring his live performances worldwide.

“…Sigler has no problem with shaking things up, and he demonstrates his comfort with envelope pushing through Bundino.” –Soul Tracks

About Bunny Sigler:
Bunny Sigler was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania on March 27, 1941. The industry gave him the nickname “Mr. Emotion” after his heartfelt performances on stage. Rising to prominence with the Philly soul sound in the 1970’s, Sigler got a chance to work with a number of acts as a writer and/or producer, including the Whispers, Ecstacy, Passion And Pain and Carl Carlton. He cut tracks for artists on Curtis Mayfield’s Curtom label, including Mayfield himself (“Trippin’ Out”), and song on a duet album with Barbara Mason. In 1976, Sigler set up an album deal for Instant Funk with Gamble and Huff’s TSOP label.

Creating several hits over the span of his career (many of which are still being sampled in today’s generation), Bunny continues to write, produce and record new material. He is the co-writer of the song “The Ruler’s Back” which was an opening song for Jay Z’s album, “Blueprint”. Even at over 70 years old, “there ain’t no stopping us now” claims Sigler, as he gets ready to release “Stand Up,” the next in a long line of hit songs.

Singer-Songwriter RJ Comer Returns with his Solo Project and New Single “Nightly Suicide” Feb 26 on Itunes Music Video out March 7th

Comer’s Highly Antipicated EP Will Be Released March 25th

Los Angeles, CA, March 14, 2016 — Formerly the front man of the Dance Hall Pimps, RJ Comer redefines his musical style with a stripped down version of Americana Rock. RJ released his new single “Nightly Suicide” on February 26th with an accompanying music video due out March 7th. This is first single off of his upcoming EP also named, Nightly Suicide and will be released on March 25th.

The metaphorical title track is RJ’s homage to Charles Bukowski—the poet laureate of barflies. The song also illustrates RJ’s early life, which he describes as “a lot of heavy drinking and nightly self-destruction.” Comer’s gritty, soulful vocals and dark riffs authentically convey the stark and sometimes surreal lyrics and imagery of the song.

“I like songs and music videos that tell stories; they put the emotion of the song in a more powerful context than just singing ‘I feel this way; I feel that way.’”—RJ Comer

The music video is inspired by Bukowski’s screenplay Barfly. Marcos Tinez plays the younger RJ, a lonesome alcoholic who is wearing the identical hat RJ is wearing in other clips of the music video to connect past and present. Directed by Guillermo Rodriguez, “Nightly Suicide” was filmed in Granada, Spain and at Los Angeles’s legendary music venue, The Mint.

The soon-to-be released EP Nightly Suicide will be available for presale on March 11th.

RJ has toured as a solo artist from British Columbia, Canada to New Orleans. His powerful voice, his captivating and emotional live performances, and his infectious songs have garnered fans in biker bars, on Bourbon Street, and in coffee houses and opera houses. Talents as diverse as A.J. Croce, C.C. Adcock, and Grammy-winner Matt Hyde have produced tracks with RJ.

Upcoming Tour Dates

March 1, 2016 ———–State Social House———-West Hollywood, CA

April 15, 2016——–McCabe’s Irish Pub———- Bradenton, FL

April 17, 2016———Bobby’s Idle Hour Tavern———Nashville, TN

Remix Produced by Joe Gallagher, Saint Man, Bunny Sigler, and Instant Funk

Los Angeles, CA, July 01, 2015 – Four-time Grammy winning producer-singer-songwriter Bunny Sigler releases his second single, “Buttermilk and Cornbread” from the brand new, critically acclaimed album Bundino. The prolific songwriter who produced the “Philly Sound” intrigues his audience once again by showcasing his classic R&B sound going back to his roots with the funky, stand-out track as his follow-up on the R&B driven album featuring disco band, Instant Funk.

Complete with soulful ballads honing in a contemporary sound, Sigler pushes his vocals on this upbeat and lighthearted tune.“Buttermilk and Cornbread,” Bunny describes is a “blues track that reminisces of southern cooking and sweet country memories.” Sizzling with that down south sound, “Buttermilk and Cornbread” has a catchy chorus and a sensory smorgasbord of lyrics.

This feel good song recalls relaxing times and nostalgic jam sessions – uninhibited sing-alongs with friends that seem endless. The six minute song’s highlight is the unexpected trumpet solo that cuts in between at the halfway mark and the blend of unison backup vocals.

Backed by longtime collaborators, Instant Funk, the band has teamed up once again with Sigler. Currently in the studio working on new material, they’re ready to hit the road again and bring their live performances worldwide.

“…Sigler has no problem with shaking things up, and he demonstrates his comfort with envelope pushing through Bundino.” –Soul Tracks

Singer/Songwriter Joseph Eid Announces The Release of Americana- Folk Album Human with a Genuine and Soulful Touch

Americana-Folk Singer/Songwriter Joseph Eid has announced the recent release of his first full studio album, Human.

Los Angeles, CA, November 25, 2014 – Americana-Folk Singer/Songwriter Joseph Eid has announced the recent release of his first full studio album, Human. Recommended if you like the Avett Brothers and Ray Lamontagne, Eid has been garnering considerable buzz with his music, recently being named as one of the 100 Hottest Live Unsigned Artists of 2014 by Music Connection Magazine.

VIEW/STREAM LATEST SINGLE, “SOMETHING REAL”

The album’s title track “Human“, displays the pastoral beauty, delicate guitar work, and intricate but relatable lyrics that have become Eid’s trademark. “Human” seamlessly blends sharp, melodic pop lyricism with traditional folk sensibilities evoking folk troubadours both past and present .

The album’s first single “Ready Now”, is propelled by a driving rhythm section , lush instrumentation and an instantly unforgettable hook. “Ready Now,” has surpassed over 20,000 views on YouTube and is the depiction of an animated version of Eid. The song tells a love story in which the man is confused about his beloved one. The storyline is lively presented by Eid’s gentle and narrative voice in the verse parts, and the passionate vocal harmony in the chorus increased the whole song’s intensity and meaning. The use of varied orchestra instruments also added a layer of dramatic effects to the song, giving it a more complicated and intriguing sensation.

Originally born in Liberia to Lebanese parents, Joseph Eid grew up in the suburbs of New York.  He was raised in a strict and traditional home where the arts were only supported as a hobby and never as a career.  During his college years, Eid studied psychology and pre-med but all the while, he was always dreaming about a potential career in music.  After his first semester at med school, the dream got too big to hold and Joseph made the bold choice of dropping out and moving to New York City to pursue music and follow his dream.  He joined a band, picked up a guitar, and the songs poured out like rain.  His journey led him to Los Angeles in 2007 where he started playing regularly at open mikes and showcases.  Shortly after, he began working with world-renowned guitarist/songwriter David Lamar, honing his songwriting at weekly showcases at the Stone Bar, leading the prolific singer/songwriter to write over 30 new songs as well as record his debut EP Cardiac Output.

Known as a dynamic solo performer, Joseph Eid has brought his cathartic one-man live show to many of Los Angeles’ premier music venues, including stints at Room 5 and El Cid.  He has held residencies at the following Hollywood venues:  The Stone Bar, Crane’s Hollywood Tavern, Room 5, and Bar Lubitsch.

Eid recently released a music video of “Something Real,” which is based on a personal experience that also happens to be universal with communication via technology and social media. A visually simple yet emotionally complex music video, “Something Real,” is meant as a commentary on our constant need to be plugged in and how this has changed the way we communicate as well as taken away the value and the weight of words and human connection.  This idea is demonstrated in the video as Eid sings to and tries to connect with lifeless, robotic people. The twist at the end of the video illustrates that no one is immune to the digital disease – including Eid.

Another piece of exciting news for the folk and country lovers is that Eid’s going to release a brand new video for the single “Hit me up” from the album “Human”. This particular song maintained his emotional and well-polished singing and song writing style, and at the same time experimented with country style guitar fill-ins. Every Eid’s video released so far, from the animated himself in ‘Ready now’ to the robotic crowd in ‘Something Real’, had shown an interesting, real-life related story and life lesson. This coming video of his would definitely be worth waiting for.
