June 2010 News
The second full-length CD by Starting Over Tuesday is in the final mix stage. As good as their first CD was, we all think that this new album is a major step forward for the band. The songs are tight, the musicianship and vocals are excellent and the recording sounds tremendous. Stay tuned for a release date announcement.
Also at Galilee, the third Kris Hansen CD is in progress. On board with Kris is Bob Giusti on drums and percussion and Richard Ribb on bass. The guys are tracking with George as we speak, working in the sixth song for this project. Kris and the guys are gigging every week in Providence, making some wonderful acoustic music so make sure you check them out. You won't be disappointed.
Just completed is the debut EP by Providence band...well...they first called themselves This Is It, but then the Michael Jackson movie came out...so they're brainstorming a name right now. Regardless, the CD is awesome, and Messers Carney, Flynn, Pedro and Mignacca have turned in great performances of great songs with a really nice, raw sound. We can't wait for this one to come out. Soon, very soon.
In July, George will be resuming his post as Director of Senior Music for the South-eastern Massachusettes Arts Collaborative (www.smartscollab.org) where he'll be leading a band of 11 teens. He's looking forward to meeting the new members and working again with those who are returning from last year. So hey to Allie, Sam and Andy!
Also in progress, the second album by Baylock, a new CD by the Gin Dogs, a series of TV and radio commercials for various area businesses, the third Rhythm Room CD, a new album by Joe Parillo and several other recording sessions.
Rhythm Room's Third CD In Progress
Along with performing massive shows at Showcase Live Patriots Place in Foxboro and many other shows, George's band the Rhythm Room is working hard at writing and recording their next album at Galilee Productions. Several of the new songs are already being performed at their shows. Started so far are the titles "Five Gates," "One Way To Chicago," "The Sweetest Thing," "Full Throttle," and "Cajun Lullabye."
Gin Dogs Album "Songs For Betsy" Released and Getting Radio Play
The album, recorded at Galilee and produced by George, is out and getting great reviews, and word on the street is that the Gin Dogs are getting substantial radio play in the northern New England area with some in studio unplugged performances scheduled. The band is gigging around, so if you like great rock and blues go check out the Gin Dogs.

New Album by Great Mass Punk Band Flat Out Jones Completed
This band is so tight... George and the guys recorded the basic tracks to 17 songs in one day! No kidding. George performed an all analog mix on this great, fast, heavy album, and we're expecting release very soon.
Galilee Records Fantastic Concert by Andy Solberg and Fountainhead
The concert was a reunion for the band, and the playing (and the recording) was phenomenal. Great audience too. Killer Kane guested on harmonica, along with vocalist Sheila Masterson and bassist from Tony Bennett's band Marshall Wood for a night of great music. Live album to follow.
February 2010 - The Down And Outs Release Cacaphony
February 27 is the official release date for "Cacophony," the second album by one of the best punk bands in the country, The Down and Outs. The album was cut with George starting in late 2008 and continuing '09, and the sessions were a blast. These guys can play and sing for real, their music is raw and real in all the right ways and so is the CD. It is definitely one of our favorite releases.
Actually, the CD has been out unofficially for a few weeks and word is that people are loving it. They certainly are in Japan, where it sold out on Interpunk in a matter of days.
The CD release party will be at AS220 on Saturday, 2/27. These guys smoke live, and they're sharing the stage with a couple of other really great bands too, so you should come to the show.
