MusicDishTV Presents “Welcome To America” By Denae Gardner

Thursday, June 28th, 2012

Denae Gardner’s video and track “Welcome To America” is an eye opening, in your face look about what our country is and has become. With her lyrically graphic descriptions, this is one political song and video that are right on point. Done in the country music style, Gardner and her band are serious. In fact, I’d go so far as to say that she’s the Bob Marley of country music. Telling you about the reality of America today, using real up to date situations in her lyrics is one of her strong points. This video captivates you with scenes that are familiar to most of us who are even vaguely familiar with the news these days. The strength of Garnder’s lyrical content cannot be overstated - she is good! She has put herself out there to be heard and, believe me, she’s coming in loud and clear. This is an excellent video that is well shot, and the story it tells is profound. Her voice is very good, the band is excellent, and this could very well be a hit, especially with those who are socially conscious or aspire to be. Tthe music and flow of “Welcome To America” are very moving as this singer tells it like it is with a very emotional delivery and great style.

Lucy Angel on HGTV’s Interiors, Inc

Monday, February 27th, 2012

Lucy Angel is kicking off 2012 with a bang like only Lucy Angel can. After touring the country in support of the self-titled Lucy Angel EP, 3 hugely successful singles, and 2 music videos which garnered worldwide attention, the girls of Lucy Angel are ready to get down to business. Country’s favorite mother-daughter trio is ready to take it to the top. And they are off to a running start…

First up on the agenda? A Lucy Angel episode on a brand new series, on a national TV network, of course. Contrary to the popular saying, the girls are going big AND going home. Interiors, Inc (http://www.hgtv.com/interiors-inc/show/index.html) is HGTV’s hottest new show (http://www.hgtv.com/). The reality TV series features acclaimed Nashville designer Jonathan Pierce and his quirky and energetic design team and staff as they redesign rooms for Nashville celebrities. Other episodes include fellow Country musicians LeAnn Rimes and Danny Gokey. Pierce, a self-proclaimed Lucy Angel fan, re-designed Kate’s master bedroom in the Anderton family’s home in Franklin, TN for the episode.

“First of all, I’m a fan of Lucy Angel. I find them not only talented on the stage, but also in the bedroom. Just kidding! Before we get too crazy – they have a great sense of style. They made the experience filming Kate’s Master Bedroom transformation a truly enjoyable one for me as well as for Pierce and Co. I loved giving Kate a safe haven from the crazy life they are all dedicated to. She’s not only an amazing woman, but an incredible wife and mother, and friend to me” says Jonathan.

The episode, which will premiere Saturday, February 25th at 9:30 PM E/P, will also be the national TV debut of Lucy Angel’s brand new single “Cowboy Can” which the trio co-wrote with their producer Anthony Smith. HGTV cameras visited the studio when Kate, Lindsay, and Emily were recording the track to give fans a behind the scenes look at the making of this soon-to-be radio hit. “Cowboy Can” will be available for download from all good download sites February 24th. The show will also feature 4 songs from the group’s self-titled EP, including the singles “Only Woman Left” and “Serious”.

And that’s just the start of it. The band has been writing and recording material for their new, full length album which is set for a 2012 release. “We’re so excited for everyone to hear what we’ve been working on” says Emily. “It truly is some of our best material yet, if we do say so ourselves” laughs Lindsay.

Lucy Angel will be coming to you, one way or another, very soon. “Cowboy Can” will be released to radio this spring, a tour in support of the single and album is in the works, and contracts for a Lucy Angel reality show are being negotiated. On the airwaves, on the stage, or on the screen, you will be seeing a lot of Lucy Angel in 2012. And that’s a guarantee.
