The Moon Rises Over Trans-Atlantic Duo – Sunflow ~ "Under the Stars"Released on Head Space Records(DUBLIN, Ireland) "Under the Stars" a ten-song collection of lush, sweet melodies to help get to Slumberland, is now available on CD (digipak with lovely artwork) as well as a digital download through ItsAboutMusic.com, with a street release date in Ireland of December 1, 2008.The new duo, SUNFLOW, is the brainchild of two trans-Atlantic songwriters Nancy Falkow (USA) and Fran King (IRELAND). Upon a chance meeting at a train station in Dublin, Ireland, Falkow and King became fast friends.A few years and ten timeless tracks later, "Under the Stars" was born. Originally intended as a lullaby album, the songs seemed to take on a life of their own. Drafted in to augment this project was producer, engineer and multi-instrumentalist, Duncan Maitland, (The Honeybus/Colin Hare), who elegantly and effortlessly brought out the best in each composition.Having both recently become parents, Falkow and King had searched in vain to find music on the market to equal such time honoured records as Harry Nilsson's classic "The Point" and Carole King’s “Really Rosie.” They then decided to put together an album of their own-- music for parents and children to enjoy together-- and Sunflow shone."After I heard Fran's song, 'Eve's Lullaby,' I was inspired to write something for my little girl," explained Falkow. "I would be honoured if kids that hear this, grow up and revisit it with their kids someday."Sumptuous, warm vocal arrangements rest comfortably on beds of acoustic guitars, strings, and keys. The result is an enchantingly refreshing album that celebrates childhood innocence and parenthood. “Under the Stars” is a must for any new parent, and lovers of songs that brim with melodic harmony!"After listening back to the final masters of this album, I became very aware of the reality that songs and records of this style are almost a lost art," discussed King. "I had Harry Nilsson in one ear, and James Taylor at my shoulder (in my head anyway) with Carole King waxing themelodies--I hope this album inspires listeners as much as it's influences have inspired us."Fran King, native of Dublin, is a pop/rock artist with an internationally acclaimed debut album (“Beautification”/Head Space Records/2006) already under his belt, and a follow up album "Into the Sun" due for release in 2009. He is a seasoned musician and performer and has worked with Sir George Martin, Sugababes and has played in every major venue in Ireland.Nancy Falkow is a native of Philadelphia (via New Jersey) currently based in Dublin, with three equally melodic albums already in her discography, her last release being the well received, Clear View (2004.) She too is a seasoned vocalist who has toured America as a solo artist and had the opportunity to tour with Daniel Lanois (Shine Tour) and sing background vocals for the likes of Patti Labelle, Astrud Gilberto and many others."I just can't believe people are still allowed to write songs this good!.... Knowing nods to Emitt Rhodes, Harry Nilsson, Paul McCartney & Wings....This here album is so full of good vibes and beautiful melodies it's a shame you have to cobble it with a label like "children's music"…so we won't! Under the Stars is music, folks ... dig it, and buy copies for all your family." – 10/08, Warren Truitt, Kidsmusicthatrocks.blogspot.com NAMED #2 Best Children's Debuts 2008 - kidsmusic.about.comView the our videosI Wish you Love - http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=zbhQWP9AZzsDreamboat - http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=f-ir0qusdXUGoodnight - http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=KLlADSyE6u0Now Sleep - http://ie.youtube.com/watch?v=FCoiwfR7w-MThank you for taking the time to listen and try not to fall asleep!

Like the non-evil twin of Yngwie Malmsteen, veteran neo-classical six-string magician Chris Impellitteri is one of those rare guitar heroes capable of restraint when he sets his mind to it -- no mean feat in a category virtually defined by noodling excess. Indeed, his attention to actual songcraft, as opposed to the flurry of notes contained in that small portion of music called ...
| | Larry Gallagher Can I Go Now? CD (2006)
Under The Stars
$17.09 FROM THE WEBSITE:About Larry (by Rob Riddell, friend and sideman)(PLEASE NOTE: There is another Larry Gallagher, whose many albums you will find on CDBaby. He bears no relation to this one.)Larry was born in Ossining, NY in the 1960s, too early to be a Backstreet Boy, and just in time to catch the scent left in the air by the sexual revolution. Undaunted, he took up the saxophone. In high school he played in jazz bands and started composing songs of his own, none of which he can be forced to play at present. Some songs from the Columbian era (ca. 1981-1985) have survived, and they testify to an already-developed satirical sensibility. For at some point, who the hell knows exactly when, he realized he was a funny dude. This is pure speculation here, but I'm guessing that this was a double revelation: his lightning wit and mordant sense of absurdity were both a desperate defense against a cruel, uncaring world, and a pretty good way of getting chicks. Stir in an unusual sensitivity to language and tireless energy, sprinkle liberally with existential doubt, set oven on "The Reagan Years," and you have the makings of an artist.While he was always doing something musical, such as playing with and writing horn charts for Joey Cheezhee and the Velveeta Underground in the late 80s, Larry had a wide-ranging and successful career as a magazine journalist. His best gig, at least that I've heard of, was as a staff writer for Details Magazine, back when it was cool: three or four times a year he would go off for a month or two to work some crazy job and then write about it. The cover photo of Larry's first album, "An Endless Chain of Accidents," captures Larry when he labored under the Golden Arches (where he reluctantly turned down a promotion); he also manned a fishing boat off Alaska and gutted cows for a meat-packing company. He wrote for Esquire, the New York Times Magazine, and a bunch of others - about the rock scene in LA, yoga in India, and smoking psychedelic toad sweat. A pretty nice match for such a peripatetic and edgy intellect. But not enough, apparently.In ...
