Gypsy Son 11. Changin' 12. My Angels 13. Costa Rica Vince Vaccaro has identified himself as a musician from an early age. Describing his earliest memories, he says, “One of my first conscious memories is the sound of a vinyl record spinning and crackling right before the music starts to play. I remember watching Chuck Berry on the television one morning, the black and white footage was grainy and the sound was a bit hard on my young ears. Right then and there I knew that's what I wanted to do with my life.” Vince has spent the last few years travelling the world and writing music deeply rooted in emotion and experience. During that time he has shared the stage with Matt Mays & El Torpedo, The Trews, LIGHTS and Hayley Sales and has brought his charismatic performance to festivals across the country. Restless to write new songs and reach more people, Vince recorded this self titled LP, produced by legendary Canadian Neil Osborne (54-40, Jets Overhead). A straight-up rock album that combines beat-driven intensity and strong melodic vocals, they created an album that is instantly easy to like. It is the perfect example of what defines Vince Vaccaro - an honest record with no tricks, no fancy samples, just a couple of guys making real music. www.vincevaccaro.com www.cordovabay.com KEY SELLING POINTS: - Publicity handled by Marlene Palmer (Bryan Adams, Michael Buble) - Managed by Nick Blasko and Piers Henwood Management (Tegan & Sara, Buck 65) - Cross Canada tour beginning at the time of release. - First single City at Sunrise will be worked to Modern Rock and Mainstream Rock and Pop stations along with a video to MuchMusic. - Previous EP released in 2006 sold out of a limited run of 500. - Key Markets: Victoria, Vancouver, Edmonton, Toronto, Ottawa, Montreal Catalogue Number Price Code CBR0702 SP Bar Code Label RIYL Format Cordova Bay Records / Fontana North File Ryan Adams/John Mayer/Sam Roberts Order Due CD Alternative/Rock/Pop April 9, 2009 Box Lot G.C.

From the musical town that is Guelph, Ontario comes a unique mash-up of synths, drums, bass and guitar. Green Go is a machine that runs hot on the fuel that fires sweaty dance parties. Ferenc Stenton, Jess Tollefsen, Mark Andrade, Kyle Squance, and Adam Scott do their best to sing, play instruments and dance, all while tearing shit up! You might want to bring a change of clothes. “Just when you think you’re past the whole shouty/jerky dance-rock thing, along comes a band like Guelph’s Green Go, who tweak it just enough to prick up your ears again. Darting funk fretwork and synthdriven anxiousness keep the adrenaline up throughout, but these co-ed cats really start cooking when they betray a bit of a prog fetish and suspend their frantic calls to arms in a spacier shimmer.” – Ben Rayner, Toronto Star.

Fourteen years after 1995’s exalted ‘Til Shiloh, Buju Banton delivers the long-awaited opus Rasta Got Soul, his most musically audacious work to date. The album unites his characteristic vocals and consistently positive messages, grounded in the tenets of Rastafari, with organic roots reggae rhythms carefully crafted by a select aggregation of Kingston, Jamaica’s finest musicians. “Roots music is reggae’s foundation,” explains Buju, who became a dancehall superstar by riding the latest synthesized beats with an imposing ferocity that earned him legions of loyal fans and a peerless designation as the ‘voice of Jamaica.’ “To me the computer stuff gets monotonous; every third production you listen to you can hear some similarity in terms of the instruments that they use, as opposed to when you listen to something live there is always something different to catch you. I aim to bring back reggae’s original sounds, original feeling and original consciousness through great poetry and pure live instruments.” <0A:4C8=6 Gargamel Music has retained a reputable marketing company to implement a strategic online marketing campaign to create awareness about the single “A Little Bit Of Sorry” and the long anticipated Rasta Got Soul album. Street teams will operate in the top 10 Buju Banton markets: New York, Los Angeles, Washington D.C., Boston, Miami, Bay Area, Philadelphia, Chicago, Baltimore and Atlanta.

Are You With Me Key Markets: Toronto, Montreal, Mississauga. Our Eurythmy The making of Our Eurythmy, was more of a musical bonding process between the four good friends, than it was a bunch of dudes jamming out songs. Gathering in the dim light of lead singer/guitarist Kevin Kralik's basement studio, Jason Haberman (bass), Glenn Candy (drums), Jason Loftman (Keys, Saxophone) and Kralik found themselves at war with their morals, sifting through society's debris, and harmonizing their pasts with their future. The result is an entirely cohesive and compelling album, that doesn't let up from beginning to end. "The Paint Movement is a balance of eurythmy between the four of us. We are in a process of building musical blueprints of the art we want to feel, hear, and see," the band says when asked to describe his band. 2009 will see the band touring their debut album extensively and continuing to turn heads with their abrasive and moving live sets. Toronto's favorite night blogger/critic Lonely Vagabond described the band as, "A lush jazz-soulfeel with a vintage vibe and lush orchestral pop energy. Inspiring music with windswept ocean breezes splashing musical colours." The album features guest appearances from friends and fellow artists Dee Planche (The Raunch), Lauren Casciato-Turner, Jeremy Panda, Bill Candy, and more.

Vinicius Gageiro Marques, who was very active in various online communities under the screen name Yonlu, lived in the Southwestern Brazilian city of Porto Alegre. He was a bright inquisitive young man, who spoke French and wrote and spoke English without ever taking classes (he learned by watching TV). Vinicius also had an impressive musical aptitude. He wrote his lyrics in English and made them available on various websites. He recorded hundreds of songs; playing guitars, bass, drums and sound effects in a room in his house that he transformed into a studio. Cover and Booklet designed by famed graphic novelist Paul Hornschemeier. After his death, his father discovered some of the precious sounds he had stored away. The music came with enthusiastic commentary made by internet fans from around the world. Yonlu, almost without any friends in real life, was virtually popular, with fans from England, Scotland, Belgium, Canada and North Africa. PRESS: “ Teenage Brazilian songwriter Yonlu …follows pretty directly in the footsteps of legends like Gilberto Gil and Caetano Veloso with softly sung and strummed odes to life, but the context is entirely flipped from what we all expect from Brazilian artists – carefree and convivial and just looking for the next good time. Yonlu took his own life at age 16 and these songs are the ones his parents found in his absence. That shouldn’t take away from the beauty of some of his work, only that there will never be more of it. “ – The Fader Price Code Label RIYL CD-LBOP-0070 SP Luaka Bop Badly Drawn Boy, Nick Drake, Elliott Smith Bar Code Format File Order Due CD Rock / Pop April 2, 2009 Box Lot G.C.

In 2008 the Jersey Shore power trio set out to record their latest eleven high energy tunes for the appropriately titled TAB 4. Recorded by the band and mixed by Eric Rachel at the famed NJ Trax-East Studios, this time around finds the band shifting gears over and over. From the pulsing groove of the opening track "Revival" to the inhuman speed of the instrumental "Super Computer," TAB 4 will leave listeners and players alike wanting more. For more than 10 years the band has climbed out from the basements of NJ to play nearly 1,000 shows in over 20 countries, and this year will be no different with over 40 shows already booked for this Fall alone in Europe and North America. This is no three chord bullshit...this is the Bitchwax.

End Under Down San Francisco’s Assemble Head In Sunburst Sound is a soundtrack for strange days and futures bright and bleak. But there is also a crooked thread that runs backward through every Assemble Head record – the celestial trajectories of The Notorious Byrd Brothers and circa ‘70 Floyd; the dusty canyon stomps of Crazy Horse, slashing action pop of the savage young Who, Italian bastardizations of Lalo Schifrin cop movie scores and the scuzz-bomb shrapnel of latter-day garage mongers like Mudhoney and Monoshock. The band’s third LP, When Sweet Sleep Returned, is propelled to some extent by that same glorious distillate. But it also finds the group speaking their own twisted tongue more assuredly than ever – marrying hazy Saturday moods, interstellar sonics and wrecking-ball swing to song and harmony in poems for California, lovers, ghosts, the stars and a world gone stark raving mad. For When Sweet Sleep Returned, Assemble Head re-united with engineering mastermind Tim Green, who manned the controls for masterpieces from Howlin’ Rain, Comets On Fire, Six Organs Of Admittance and Earthless, as well as Assemble Head’s 2007 release Ekranoplan. The band entered Green’s Louder Studios in October 2008 with an expanded lineup including original trio Michael Lardas, Jefferson Marshall and Charlie Saufley, longtime theremin and synth collaborator Anderson Lanbridge and mega-multi-instrumentalist Camilla Saufley. The band also reached out to Brett Constatino and Evan Reese of fellow Frisco freaks Sleepy Sun, for vocal harmonies on the beautifully sprawling and soaring “Two Birds.” Elsewhere, When Sweet Sleep Returned finds Assemble Head exploring the sun-dappled terrain of daydreams on “The Slumbering Ones,” hard-chugging crust-fuzz boogie on “Clive and the Lyre,” bittersweet melodiousness on “By the Rippling Green,” and space temple chorale chime on “Kolob Canyon.” All this ecstatic aural gumbo – garnished with illustrations by hyper-surrealist artist Andy Ristaino – will be served up in early April 2009 on Tee Pee Records.

Bird Of All Faiths And None/Bell From Madrone 11:07 A crack in the firmament, a rustling in the pines. The forest’s equilibrium is shattered beneath the hooves of antiquity. Proscribed by the egoists, all the old sacraments have been performed – a complete transference of potency. The air hisses with mercury and magnetism. Fire swallows the land. In stillness they wait as the sky bleeds white, players in a proto-mythic drama with outcome unknown. (Not the band, though – that would be cheesy.) This information is as useful or useless as anyone chooses. All else – the sound, the color, the shape of things, the light and shade of narrative and molecular dispensation – is left to the atmosphere. It’s here and then it’s gone. It’s always there. Or maybe it was never there, not ever. It’s an imagined memory, the ultimate false dawn. A psychic eclipse that blinds the mind’s eye. How’s that for high melodrama, for existential cryptography? Sometimes, vagueness and vagaries have to suffice. For those who prefer terra firma, though? Call it ambient post-doom. Call it alchemic psych-rock, only without all those annoying freeform guitar freakouts. Call it “pure spirits by ritual dismemberment.” Either way, Black Math Horseman is Sera Timms (bass/vocals), Ian Barry (guitar) Bryan Tulao (guitar) and Sasha Popovic (drums). They are from Los Angeles. Their debut album Wyllt was recorded and produced by desert guru Scott Reeder (Kyuss, Unida). The rest is a discovery about to be made.

Spirit Of The West Lake 7 Impressions of the West Lake is a modern day opera conceived and directed by internationally acclaimed filmmaker Zhang Yimou(Hero, Curse of the Golden Flower), the visionary artist behind the opening and closing ceremonies of the 2008 Olympics in Beijing. The production is highlighted by music composed by the Grammy and Golden Globe Award winning artist Kitaro. This pairing of East-meets-West is a rare combination of two artists at the peak of their creative talents. The opera also marks a reunion for Kitaro and music arranger Randy Miller, the pair’s first effort together since the Golden Globe-winning soundtrack to Oliver Stone’s 1993 film Heaven and Earth. The show’s soundtrack also features rising Chinese pop star Jane Shang, a gifted young performer who provides stunning vocals to the production on the title track, “Impressions Of The Westlake.” Through the course of his career, Kitaro has sold millions of albums worldwide. Kitaro’s various sound collaborations and resonant, multi-textured compositions, with their crescendos of passion and eases of serenity, truly defy the constraints of any genre. His pioneering fusion of cultures, techniques and spheres of consciousness is truly his own. With Impressions Of The West Lake, Kitaro continues to explore new, uncharted terrain with his magnificently expansive vision and everquesting spirit.

On Sacred Ground, is a culmination of years of toying with the idea of making an album together, a time that arrived when both Eligh and Jo came to the simultaneous realization, surprisingly without recent conversation. In addition to his signature rapidfire lyrical delivery as a Legends fan favorite, Eligh is an accomplished producer and sat at the helm for this project. This socially conscious family has been recognized by everyone from Ry Cooder to Pete Seeger and Sage Francis to MURS. In addition to the recognition of such luminaries, Jo recalls being recognized at Legends shows (also having appeared on many LL recordings as guest vocalist) with fans thanking her for “giving birth to the poet man”. On Sacred Ground includes guests: The Grouch, Slug (of Atmosphere), Jiro Yamaguchi (of Ozomatli), Pigeon John, among others.

The Wilkinson Family carries on....’Praises’ is a highpoint. One thing I would have loved: to hear an audience singing the line ‘come together to the healing ground’....”---- Pete Seeger “It’s a great rarity to hear a music project shared between mother and son. It’s an even greater rarity for the folk world and hip-hop world to meet at the halfway point without one dominating the other. This is a hybrid of music genres that infuses so many styles that you’re not sure whether to throw your hands up and say ‘ho!’ or hold hands and sing along. That’s a good confusion.”---- Sage Francis “’On Sacred Ground’ sounds like nothing I’ve ever heard before. It is the perfect and seamless blend of two musical worlds. An audio alliance that could only be pulled off so perfectly by mother and son. This album represents the evolution of American music.”---- Murs “Always a fan of Jo Wilkinson’s music, I can now add Eligh to my list of favorites. This album is beautiful, original, edgy, and traditional -- all at once. I don’t know how they do it, but it’s a collaboration whose time has come.” ---- Mary Buckley, KXCI-FM, Tucson Los Angeles/San Francisco, Tucson, Oakland, Santa Cruz, Sacramento, San Diego, Portland, Seattle, Denver, Boulder, Co.
