Dr. Demento 30th Anniversary Collection: Dementia 2000 buy CD music Katz - The Athens Boys Choir"Katz has the nuance of an old soul when he does his thing. With the inclusion of class, culture, and race dynamics in transgender politics, Katz makes room for the evolution of a movement. He doesn't shy away from questioning his own community and remembers that humor broadens the most narrow minds. This self aware spoken word artist has potential to be a leader to his generation of queers and a bridge to an older generation if they are willing to listen." - Amy Ray (Indigo Girls) July 2005 Katz, with his Jewish roots dressed in cowboy boots, has often hailed spokenword as "cheap therapy". His pieces take a brave dive into a deep pool of personal, political, and sexual perspective. Katz performs under the persona of the Athens Boys Choir. The Athens Boys Choir has toured nationally since 2003, performing with such artists as the Indigo Girls, Bitch, The Butchies, Danielle Howle, and Michelle Malone. He has also opened for poets of HBO's Def Poetry Jam on more than one occasion. What started as a true love of writing since childhood has turned into a blissful career. Katz uses his poetry to entertain and inform. Transgender issues are one of his hot topics and he was honored to be a part of Atlanta's Transgender Day of Remembrance in 2004. A Miami native, he also finds writing inspiration from a Jewish upbringing, and a love/hate relationship with politics. A line from one piece reads " We all got these subliminal feeding tubes, 'cause patriotic nourishment is easier when you don't have to chew, when the heroic value of war is fed to you...." Of course, being a southern boy, Katz isn't afraid to let loose and have a little fun. Singing and New Kids on the Block dance moves are known to make an appearance at nearly every show. From a sports bar in San Diego to a sold out crowd at the Bowery Ballroom in New York City, the rhymes and rhythms of the Athens Boys Choir have struck a chord in the most diverse of audiences; many whose members claimed they disliked spokenword until the Athens Boys Choir was let loose on them. With one CD already released on Daemon Records and another one in the works, Katz/The Athens boys Choir is a force to be reckoned with. "My heart line and my lifeline don't intersect on my dominate side, but my words left to ride, dip and slide, on air vibration....well that feelings hard to describe but must be where those two lines collide" - Katz Katz / Athens Boys Choir Press "...airing our culture's dirty laundry with their infectious, stream-of-consciousness rapping." - Frontiers Magazine - Nov. 2004 "No one since Ani Difrance has taken the power of the English language and put it to such good use."

Dr. Demento 30th Anniversary Collection: Dementia 2000 buy CD music It has been said that, either the sky is the limit or the limit is the sky. In the case of Louisville native, Adrianne Archie, now 28, the limitations of life are left up to God. Creating a buzz about her talent and music as early as the age of six, her life and career as a singer has been inevitable. Adrianne spent her formative years developing her gifts by singing at conventions, in churches, plays, and talent shows. After completing her undergraduate education in marketing, she immediately began performing on local music projects with Soul LinQ Productions artists, which led way for her to work on her debut CD HTHAELHH (He That Hath An Ear, Let Him Hear). Upon it's release, HTHAELHH quickly became and independent success. The CD garnered the rare combination of critical acclaim, popularity with consumers and respect from established industry artists. Drawing from genre influences such as gospel, hip-hop, r&b, and neo-soul, Archie was able to gracefully reach a wide range of listeners. Adrianne's albums HTHAELLH and Warm Winter, a seasonal album released in the 2006, have been best sellers with many online retailers. HTHAELHH still holds the record for best selling neo-soul CD at CDBaby and also received the Best New Artists and Best Female Artists awards from the Urban Gospel Alliance. Along with Kirk Franklin's Hero, Archie's album was the only other artists' album to receive a 5 star rating by Gospel Today Magazine. Upon its release and even now, 5 years later, the CD is still a staple on both gospel radio stations and XM Satellite Radio. These acclamations attest to the relevance and longevity of Ms. Archie's music. True artists with longevity learn to evolve and grow. Adrianne's upcoming release of HSMS-Heart, Soul Mind & Strength, is evolution to the fullest. Taking its name from Luke 10:27 which reads: He answered: "Love the Lord your God with all our heart and with all your soul, and with all you strength and with all your mind, Love your neighbor as yourself." "You have answered correctly," Jesus replied. "Do this and you will live." is a call to wholistic living through healthy relationships with both God and man. Slightly off the scene but not off track, for the past 3 years, Adrianne has studied this closely in seminary receiving a Masters of Arts in Christian Education in the Fall of 2009. Adrianne has once again teamed up with long time producer Joel Goodwin to create this 3rd album. The music and lyrics reflect the HSMS theme by utilizing genres such as soul, pop, hip-hop, jazz, r&b, and contemporary Christian, to reflect such life settings as the church, social outings, traveling, exercising and relaxation. Adrianne refers to this as music for the car, crib, club, cardio, and church. Early anticipation and reviews for the release of HSMS indicate that Adrianne is on to something huge and the limitations that are usually placed on artists will be met and surpassed by far. Now that those with "ears have heard, they will respond in love, with all their heart, soul, mind and strength.
