Look Who Is on This Amazing CD!
· Alison Krauss,
"Baby, Now That I've Found You"
This child prodigy brought Blue Grass and Folk Music to the mainstream.
Along with back-up band, Union Station, Krauss has charmed country
and pop audiences alike, proving that you don't have to perform
cross-over music to gain a cross-over audience. "Now That
I've Found You," is a platinum hit that showcases a voice
of pure liquid gold, and brings Krauss into the "Favorites"
category of anyone who listens. Her credits include 13 Grammy
awards, 4 CMA awards and 3 songs in the movie "O Brother,
Where Art Thou." For more information see: www.AlisonKrauss.com
· Natalie Imbruglia,
"Wrong Impression"
Soap opera star, super model, and one of the biggest pop singers
in Europe, Imbruglia met with wild success when "Torn"
was released and spent 14 weeks at number one. "Wrong Impression,"
is the follow-up hit released on her sophomore album, "White
Lillies Island." She just nabbed the Best Female Artist nomination
at this year's ARIA awards (the Australian Grammys). For more
information see: www.natalie-imbruglia.co.uk
· Beth Orton, "Stolen
Car"
Acoustic Folk and Hip-Hop don't generally mix, but Orton manages
to create this new genre flawlessly. "Stolen Car," and
Beth Orton are already a hit among college radio and tours across
the country. Getting her to appear on this album has been one
more addition to a great line-up that insures the young adult
market will be both pleased and inspired by this compilation.
She has, to date, released three albums and six singles, all to
critical acclaim. For more information see: www.beth-orton.co.uk
· Shelly Anglin, "Falling
for You"
Anglin feels her way through a pop/country sound that moves her
audiences. Though she started with the more traditional country
sound in songs like, "Travellin' Jones," and "This
Isn't Love," she's recently found her stride with a more
soulful, sultry sound that suits her attitude. "Falling for
You," is an up-beat single, the first released in this new
format, and it's fun lyrics and danceable beat make this song
hit material. For more information see: www.ShellyAnglin.com
· Belly, "Feed the Tree"
Tonya Donnelly is the front woman for this band with an alternative
bent. "Feed the Tree," is a song that went gold for
Belly, and it's not hard to figure out why. The driving, edgy
intro, softened by the hauntingly clear voice of Donnelly intrigues
and entertains any listener.
· Heather Nova, "I'm No
Angel"
Influenced in her writing by Patty Smith and Lou Reed, Heather
Nova has perfected her sound. When Nova asks, "Are you ready
for me to be stronger?" in the first line of, "I'm No
Angel," we couldn't help but answer, "Absolutely!"
Her range is notable, and her style, with an acoustic rock beat,
is something everyone can enjoy. She has 7 albums and 12 singles
to her credit. www.HeatherNova.org
· N'Dea Davenport, "Bring
It On"
Davenport gained her first bit of recognition playing front woman
for an acid jazz/funk band called, "The Brand New Heavies."
In 1998, she broke into her own solo career, producing her own
soulful voice. "Bring It On," is more proof that women
and artists no longer have to stay in the background and only
be pretty, little singers. Women are taking charge of their own
careers, and Davenport's self-production proves she's up for it.

· The Corrs, "I Never
Loved You Anyway"
This Irish group has had top 10 hit success worldwide, selling
millions of copies of their album, "Talk on Corners."
"I Never Loved You Anyway," is another great cut for
our compilation that showcases the talents of this family band
in a pop tune that will have you singing to yourself. www.corrsonline.com
· Abra Moore, "Four Leaf
Clover"
Grammy nominated Ms. Moore seems to receive nothing but positive
reviews, with her sweet, confident sound combined with her sultry,
real-world truths. Her songs have appeared in several motion pictures,
including Sliding Doors, Cruel Intentions and The Newton Boys.
"Four Leaf Clover" topped modern rock charts and was
a video fixture for both VH1 and MTV. This song is what happens
when Alternative gains a popular sound. For more see: www.abramooreonline.com
· Brenda Kahn, "Christopher
Says"
As John Sullivan so succinctly put it: "Brenda Kahn's new
songs remind you of what rock music is supposed to sound like;
guitar hooks, great bass lines and high energy all stumbling through
the truth." Folk, punk and thrash all inspired this artist
born in Connecticut. Kahn has made 4 albums, and she tours, primarily
in the Eastern and Midwestern states. "Christopher Says,"
is a brooding, thoughtful song that illustrates the emptiness
of a one-night stand. The melody doesn't stand still, however,
and the juxtaposition of the melancholy lyric with the up-beat
melody leaves the listener intuitively aware that equating this
one-night stand with love is just as mis-matched. For more, see:

· Gypsy Back Door,"Everything
is Different"
Gypsy Back Door is fronted by charismatic lead singer Anne Pohl,
who also pens all the lyrics for their songs. This rhythmic band
is new to the scene, but definitely going places. "Everything
is Different," is everything a thoughtful song should be:
great lyrics, great melody, great harmonies, and great performance
meld into a song that is both enjoyable and interesting to hear.

· Dar Williams, "Better
Things"
Ms. Williams has become a major force in the New England Folk
scene. She has 7 albums and 2 limited release EPs. Her style has
been compared to Joni Mitchell and Joan Baez, with a few acidic
twists. She wins rave reviews in the college coffee house circuit,
making her a logical choice for this compilation. The song, "Better
Things," is a perfect, positive note on which to end the
CD, as it further reinforces that women are not stagnant creatures,
but are always moving forward, taking responsibility, and creating
"Better Things." For more info, see: www.darwilliams.com
