WOOOHOOO today kicked ass!! Plus Hell Ya! Hit Of The Day!

this is what i feel like right now (minus the mullet and unicycle)

I had an amazing today today. I can't stop smiling. First off, after 3 years of working at a major record label, as of TODAY, I signed my first band! This is HUGGGE news, especially because it was a band that I SIGNED to my own indie record label! HELL YA! Records!

So that's a double YAYYY. If you haven't listened to Dukes Of Daville already, check it out now!

Listen to 'Steady' and hopefully you will be hearing it over and over by this time next year . . .

On top of finally feeling validated at my job by signing my first band to Capitol, I am super excited to see my boyfriend tomorrow - who has been touring for nearly a month. (dating a musician is really HARD!) I'm constantly missing him, but it is true that distance makes the heart grow fonder. I would rather been in a hard situation with him, than an easy situation with somebody else.

I'm going to try to start a new feature on this blog called SONG OF THE DAY. This may or may not happen every day, but only when I hear a song that makes me compelled enought to write about it! So . . . first up is a shocker. Stay with me.
Have you heard the new Linkin Park single called 'Shadow Of The Day'? I heard on KROQ today and fell in love with the song before I realized it was Linkin Park!! HAHA. By the time I figured it out, I was already sold and ready to hear it on repeat. Who is responsible for this gem? Why Rick Rubin of course!! He did it again! How did he turn a band I wrote off years ago, into a band I put on my Hell Ya! mixes and blog?!? Same thing happened when I heard the Dixie Chicks.

Since I can't post the track, I found a youtube link that plays the song over a Linkin Park logo - take a listen here:

Linkin Park 'Shadow of the Day'

Speaking of bands I usually make fun of . . . have you heard the new BRAVERY single? It's called "Believe" and it's really good. They got my 99cents today as well!

**shameless buddy shout out/plug:
Happy B-day Mollie Moore!!

DUKES OF DAVILLE featured in 'PERFECT STRANGER!'

DUKES OF DAVILLE

I have been holding in some HUGE news about Dukes Of Daville, who are my latest signing to HELL YA! Records . . .(i HAVE learned from my mistakes - like my last post about X-1 "new york is so cool", so I kept silent so I wouldn't jinx it!)

Drumroll please . . . HELL YA! Records band DUKES OF DAVILLE have their single "Steady" (baby) featured in the movie PERFECT STRANGER in theatres Now! The film came out this past Friday the 13th, and stars Halle Berry & Bruce Willis. *(HUGEEEE thanks go to Nic for pitching the song in the film, and BIG time thanks go to my BF & Lawyer Leslie Frank!!! I owe you both Bigtime. Leslie, the check is in the mail.)


I went to see the movie opening day with Blake, which was so exciting! (so bummed JG had to work, since she has alot to do with this project!! ) I was still nervous, thinking they took out the song at the last minute . . . but sure enough, not even 5 minutes into the movie, Dukes Of Daville "Steady Baby" chimes in the background of a bar scene. It happens to be the FIRST song used in the movie! They use alot of the song too!(about 2 min 30 secs!)

Go see this movie, and make sure to pay attention to the first 5 min! (turn up your hearing aid! It's a hit!) Then make sure to stay until the VERYYYYYY end to see HELL YA! Records listed in the movie credits!!! HAHAHA. Or you can just wait for the DVD. :)

Today was a good day, and tonight will be even better . . . I have a feeling I will be seeing some old friends tonight. I am going to celebrate with Scott Sterling for his 10th Anniversary of booking THE FOLD! I can't wait to see HELL YA! favorites CASTLEDOOR play right before the 'special guests'! Who's the band? I'm not one to leak a surprise, (hahaha) but I have to leave now to make a pit stop @ SILVERSUN LIQUOUR before heading to the SILVERLAKE LOUNGE in the great city of SILVERLAKE. How many times can I say SILVERLAKE or SILVERSUN in one paragraph? Oh and make set your TIVO's to see SILVERSUN PICKUPS on JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE tonight!!!
HELL YA.
