OurStage: Update For A Slow News Day

Hey Soul Mates,
so much to report on a Friday. Usually a slow news day.

Here's the scoop. RHS is currently appearing in the OurStage music contest. We go head-to-head with other songs in a contest featuring cash prizes. Yow! Just one more way to get our music heard and build the bank for our return to the UK.

OK, you may have read it on our myspace and it sounds too good to be true? NO! RHS RINGTONES are coming to your phone this month. YES! Once we get the mastering finished for the LP (next week), we will begin unleashing supersoul ringtones for your cellphone. So get it charged up! Only in America? We hope it's global.

Finally, we are close to announcing a release date and show to coincide with the release of our debut CD. Don't forget that tickets are still available on TicketWeb for our show on August 4.

Have a great weekend.
Love, Power, Peace

Hey Soul Mates, Happy 4th of July Week.
Hope you are getting your independence on. Just in time for the fireworks, we've got some big news.

It's been half a year since last we took the stage. In one month, we'll be back to entertain you in person. International Pop Overthrow Los Angeles is presenting us at the Knitting Factory's AlterKnit Lounge. This is an all ages show on Saturday August 4. We take the stage at 9 PM. But here's the rub. This is going to be a massive show and the capacity for the Lounge is only 100. We highly recommend getting tickets in advance! And get there early to get close to the stage.

For ticket info visit TicketWeb.

The 2nd news story we have for you? We have just debuted three song snippets from our full-length debut CD on MySpace. Co-produced by Adam Marsland, they are FALL OUT; U HAD THE $; and EVERYTHING MY HEART DESIRES. Visit our page on MySpace and vote for your favorite by leaving a comment. Vote/comment as often as you like. On July 31, we will tally the votes and announce a winner. On August 1, just in time for the show, we will make that winning track available as a free download on MySpace! We think the tracks are slamming and that you are really going to enjoy the finished record.

Dance On! And we'll see you at the show.

Love, Power, Peace

New Music Tuesday Arrives A Few Hours Early

Hey Soul Mates,
it's done and it's on. Since it's already Tuesday in Great Britain, we have to get this party started. For those of you who are also friends on MySpace, run don't walk your mouse to our page. We've posted song samples for three of our new tracks: Fall Out, U Had The $ and Everything My Heart Desires. Visit the page and listen. Then, leave a comment to vote for your favorite. The song with the most comments by July 31 will be made available as a free download on August 1. Just in time for our next show on August 4.

We especially want to hear from our fans in the UK. We miss you and we know you've been clamoring for the music.

Did any of you watch the Concert For Diana? Pretty great stuff. Who knew P. Diddy would give one of the most tasteful performances of the night? He represented America quite well. His Q&A was spot on, too. We were also thrilled that our peers Orson made it on the bill. Bravo, fellas. And it's always fun to see Duran Duran performing. Even with their new guitarist. Simon looked particularly sharp. They were Di's favorites, after all.

Back to work. But you all? Get to listening and have a fun July 4th week.
Love, Power, Peace

Our MySpace Secret Revealed

Hey Soul Mates,
as many of you may know from visiting our Myspace page, the band has something up their sleeves to announce on Tuesday. I'll give you the scoop here: it involves our new self-titled album. We are going to let you, our fans, vote for a track that we will then give away on Myspace. There will be three song samples to choose from and voting will last for 3 weeks; so get ready. This is very exciting for us as we haven't had new studio music available in almost a year. And we certainly hope that you are excited about it too. You'll be able to download the track and play it to your heart's content on your computer, iPod, whateva.

In other music news, A Talent For Loving will be remixed for the album. And we thought the original version was great. But co-producer Jim Rix told us he wanted to squeeze some more sound out of it. Rock on, Sunny Jim!

Don't forget, we are only a month away now from the re-emergence of RHS on the live scene. We'll be playing at the intimate (100 person capacity) Alterknit Lounge on Hollywood Blvd. Saturday, August 4. Mark your calendars. It's an all ages show.

Have a safe July 4th week everyone.
Love, Power, Peace
