have i told you lately that i signed my first band? if so, i'll tell it again anyways!

DUKES OF DAVILLE! HELLLLLLYA! Life is good. Just found out they got placed in another big movie! and the album isn't even out yet! (i wish it were pushed up a bit - but hey - beggars can't be choosers!

Dukes Of Daville Sandwich! (me w/ Ric & James while recording in LA)



just found out they are going to be in the new Ashton / Cameron Diaz movie in Vegas::

What Happens In Vegas (movie preview) i'm sure you have seen all these commercials already - - - everyone has been calling me saying they heard Metro Station 'Shake It' in the same movie spots as well!

So either that music supervisor is either A) super awesome and apparently we love the same shit, i need to get in touch. or B) is my friend/and or a music supervisor that I've already been in touch with - both Dukes & Metro have been on about every Hell Ya! Mix of the past year!

i found this video interview w/ the dukes today - - check it:

Nothing is more satisfying than seeing your work come to fruition. I am still in shock that I'm even INVOLVED in this project, it's too damn good! Turns out everything ALWAYS happens for a reason, and I was meant to do just this!
I just can't wait till I can play it for everyone I know!! (you know i will now anyways - - that's just how i do things. the more people that know about it - the better right???? with that said, here's my new favorite dukes track - shhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

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.
