MEET HEY MONDAY

This year, a new female fronted band will be in the mouths of every music fan. With a frontwoman with spunk to spare and an enthusiasm as disarming as it is endearing, they are the band to watch in 2009. The name — Hey Monday.

Composed of Cassadee Pope (lead vocals), Michael “Jersey” Moriarty (bass guitar), Mike Gentile (lead guitar), Alex Lipshaw (rhythm guitar), Elliot James (drums) and Bobby Nolan (Keyboard), they are set to conquer Manila on February 13 as they front act for Fall Out Boy’s concert in Araneta Coliseum. Hey Monday will also be here to share their music to Filipinos via their debut album “Hold On Tight” which is a joint venture between Columbia Records and Pete Wentz’s Decaydance Records. It features the carrier single “Homecoming.”

  

Discovered through their frontwoman Cassadee at a regional music conference, she formed a band then signed to Columbia Records. Their debut album was produced by S*A*M and Sluggo the tandem behind The Academy Is, Gym Class Heroes and Metro Station.

 

”We liked the name Hey Monday because it’s very contradicting,” says Cassadee, “Most people don’t really say they’re happy about a Monday, they view it like it’s the first day of the rest of their week, but Monday can also just be a new beginning…”

 

Hey Monday’s album is a free-spirited spin through life’s post-adolescent twists, turns, trials and triumphs.

 

“Hold On Tight” will be out soon at leading record stores released through Sony Music Entertainment Philippines.

KINGS OF LEON RELEASES CRITICALLY ACCLAIMED 4TH ALBUM “ONLY BY THE NIGHT”

When Kings of Leon released their third album Because Of The Times in April 2007, Entertainment Weekly called it their “crowning achievement,” while Rolling Stone wondered: “How good can the Kings of Leon get? They’ve already gone further than anybody could have guessed.”

Coming as it did on the heels of 2003′s rowdy Youth and Young Manhood and 2005′s brawny Aha Shake Heartbreak, the expansive Because of The Times was indeed a pivotal and game-changing album. It led the Followills – Tennessee-bred Caleb, Nathan, and Jared, and their cousin Matthew – to astonishing success around the world. In the U.S., the band has sold out New York City’s fabled Radio City Music Hall and The Greek Theatre in Hollywood. In the U.K., Kings of Leon headlined the legendary Glastonbury Festival, as well as the Oxygen Festival in Ireland, and sold out their show at London’s 20,000-seat 02 Arena (where Led Zeppelin held its reunion concert) in less than an hour.

But if critics thought that Because of The Times was the work of a band “at the peak of its powers” (as the Los Angeles Times put it), they may want to reconsider that assessment after hearing Kings of Leon’s new album Only By The Night. Only By The Night picks up where Because of The Times left off, continuing Kings of Leon’s shape-shifting evolution and cementing their status as a world-class rock band.

With its stunning melodies, ringing guitars, and razor-sharp grooves, Only By The Night delivers on the promise Kings of Leon have shown throughout their career. From the desolate atmospherics of the opening track “Closer” (which Caleb says is about a lovesick vampire) to the emotional intensity of the closing ballad “Cold Desert” (“about a man at the end of his rope who picks himself back up”), Only By The Night is all heart from start to finish.

Album highlights include the insistently chugging first single “Sex on Fire”, the throbbing, propulsive “Crawl” (about relationships of all kinds and taking them for granted), and the sonically sweeping new single “Use Somebody,” which Caleb wrote while feeling lonely on the road. Then there’s the soaring uplift of “Manhattan,” which is partly about dancing and enjoying life and partly about the struggles of Native Americans. Finally there’s the driving, forceful “Notion,” which finds the singer pushing back against anyone who says anything against anyone in his band.

Caleb’s instinct for insularity is not surprising given that the band is made up of family members. The familial vibe extended to the recording process when Kings of Leon returned to Nashville’s Blackbird Studio in April 2008 with their long-time producer Angelo Petraglia and Nashville-based producer/engineer Jacquire King, who also mixed Aha Shake Heartbreak. Petraglia and King also encouraged the experimental process the Followills first engaged in when making Because Of The Times, giving the band the freedom to explore all of their ideas. Caleb had written most of the lyrics and melodies for Only By The Night during some downtime at home recovering from shoulder surgery.

Overall, the Followills knew it was time to be honest about their ambitions and prove what they could really do. Caleb, for one, unleashes some of the most righteous, anguished singing he’s ever recorded.

Only By The Night is now out in CDs under Sony BMG Music Entertainment.
