Introducing Juke Kartel, Melodic Rock from Australia

Honed amidst the underground club scene of Melbourne, Juke Kartel has arrived on U.S. soil ready to rock. In little more than four years, the five-member band has gone from local heroes to fast-rising stars – opening for Nickelback and Slash and sharing the stage with everyone from Ozzy Osbourne to Fergie. This summer they opened the Australian leg of Slash’s world tour and on September 28th will introduce their own brand of rock to stages across America.

Levolution, their Carved Records debut, was produced by Brian Virtue (Jane’s Addiction, Velvet Revolver, 30 Seconds to Mars) and Rick Parashar (Pearl Jam, Alice in Chains, Nickelback). The album features a half-dozen freshly penned tracks- including the melodic first single “If Only” – and six from the band’s 2009 Australian CD, Nowhere Left to Hide, remixed by Dan Korneff (My Chemical Romance, Cavo). With its overarching theme of personal growth and “the journey we’re all on,” says vocalist/lyricist Toby Rand, Levolution finds musical symmetry in its strong hooks, multi-textured instrumentals and passionate vocals. And as the album is more than just your typical rock record, Juke Kartel is not just a rock band: “We’re more than just band-mates; we’re a family that chose each other.”

Visit JukeKartel.com to find out more about the band and their music. Levolution is available for pre-order now on Amazon.

Introducing Sunny Singer-Songwriter Alyssa Bernal

When multiplatinum artist and producer Pharrell Williams is so anxious to get in touch with someone that he contacts their high school to try and track them down, you know that there is something special happening. When that happened to singer-songwriter and YouTube sensation Alyssa Bernal, the teenager was shocked. “They didn’t know who Pharrell was! They just thought it was some shady guy trying to get a hold of me,” laughs Alyssa. Her mother finally spotted his MySpace message and 24 hours later, she and Alyssa were on a plane from their home in San Antonio, TX to meet Pharrell and Interscope Records Chairman Jimmy Iovine in Los Angeles. “Finding a new talent like Alyssa is so exciting to me,” says Pharrell. “There are a lot of young singers out there who can carry a tune, but Alyssa is the real deal. She is a true musician with an incredible voice.”

Once signed to Star Trak, Alyssa met with her dream producer, Martin Terefe (Jason Mraz, Train). Terefe’s schedule was fully booked for the next few months, but after an hour-long meeting with the young singer, he agreed to work with her – starting immediately. Alyssa and her mother moved to London for seven weeks to record her debut album, In Love Again For The First Time. Terefe helped develop Alyssa’s naturally sunny sound, enlivening her pop sensibility with notes of funk and soul. First single “Cali Cali Cali” is available on iTunes now, and is the perfect example of Alyssa’s sunny yet substantive style. Visit AlyssaBernal.com to watch her DIY video of the track and stay tuned to the site for updates on her debut!

Joe Brooks New Album Constellation Me On September 7th

Joe Brooks, the self-taught UK singer/songwriter whose bedroom-recorded songs on MySpace made him a star before a label deal was even considered, is set to release his Lava Records/Universal Republic debut CONSTELLATION ME on all digital platforms September 7th. Armed with both a guitar and brute emotional honesty, Brooks follows in the tradition of Simon & Garfunkel, Damien Rice and James Blunt by melding confessional lyrics with heartfelt, melodic tracks.

With an online following in the tens of millions—the singer was the UK’s Number One unsigned MySpace artist for nearly a year—the 23-year-old Brooks has quickly amassed a devoted fan base drawn to his heart-on-sleeve, workmanlike style.|

CONSTELLATION ME, which features current single “Superman,” as well as future singles “Marching Band” and “World at Our Feet,” is the culmination of a lifetime of self-discipline and innate talent. The charismatic musician began playing his mother’s classical guitar as a child, re-stringing the broken instrument and teaching himself how to play. Later, Brooks began writing his own songs and posting them on MySpace, subsequently becoming the UK’s highest-ranking unsigned artist and garnering over 30,000 plays a days. As a teenager, Brooks declined multiple record deals to focus on growing his music and further nurturing his musical gift.

CONSTELLATION ME marks the debut collaboration between Universal Republic and Jason Flom’s Lava Records. Flom, a music industry legend who propelled the careers of everyone from Stone Temple Pilots to Tori Amos to Kid Rock, was instantly impressed with Brooks’ talent. “Even though he’s only 23, Joe Brooks has an old soul in a young body,” said Flom. “His lyrics convey a dual sense of youthful optimism and heartfelt realism that resonate with so many different ages and groups. Joe Brooks is bound for stardom.”

Fans can now pick up the new single from Joe Brooks, “World At Our Feet,” on iTunes!

Brooks will be hitting the road in support of CONSTELLATION ME this fall, embarking on his first cross-country tour of the U.S. beginning Sept. 8 in Fullerton, CA.
