As most of you know I have a solo project out right now "Open Book" there's a CD available for purchase (itunes, amazon.com, barnes & nobles, borders books & best buy), a video "I would die for you" posted at youtube and on all of my sites (Facebook, jayking.ning.com, tagged, myspace etc) & a constant stream of idea's running thru my head as I am in continuous motion because that's what makes a record happen..... I look at this new music business and I am excited about all of the possibilities because there are NO LIMITS to what you can do in the cyber world so today I ask each of you (and I hope you forward to your friends) to help me to get my project started by going to
www.sellaband.com/jayking and contribute as little as $10.00 to help me market, promote and advertise my music, you will be reimbursed and also share in 25% of the profits earned from this project. I plan on selling 1 million units!!! but I have to start the buzz and get the energy flowing and I hope you enjoy the music enough and believe in my abilities enough to know I will get it done.........remember Rumors :-) Thank You for taking the time to read this and at least consider my proposal, Jay
Los Angeles, CA - Industry veteran, musician and producer, Jay King has always been ahead of the curve. As the founder/creator of Club Nouveau,perhaps one of the most distinctive and original groups to grace the contemporary music scene, he has been influencing the musical landscape since first forming the group in 1986.
Club Nouveau sold over ten million records, toured worldwide, charted eleven Billboard hit singles and garnered numerous awards and prestigious nominations with hits that included "Jealousy," "Situation #9, "Why You Treat Me So Bad," and the remake of Bill Withers' "Lean On Me."
Forever the maverick, King is also credited with creating a new chapter in music history by independently producing, pressing, marketing and promoting the biggest selling 12-inch single in history, "Rumors" by the Timex Social Club. He paved the path for independent record companies and was actually a forerunner to the current state of the music business, initially demonstrating the true power of the committed artist operating outside of the confines of the major label.
Unlike many past musical wonders however, King is undaunted by the newest wave of changes on the music horizon and is once again forging new inroads. With his first solo CD "Open Book," on King Jay Nouveau Music he proves himself still a true chameleon, remaining current and relevant to the times with an adult contemporary offering that is textured with the mature tonality of pure love.
A ten song adventure through adult contemporary, the musical escapade provides the textures of love,life and spirit. Working with musical powers such as Larry Dunn of Earth, Wind and Fire, guitar virtuoso Tony Dewayne, saxophone wizard Cal Bennett and veteran industry staple John Barnes, Jay has created a masterpiece in the realm of an audio experience that is a destined to become a standard for all time. Tracks like "I Would Die For You" and "I Have a Way with the Woman" ring like timeless classics.
In addition, King hosts his own Blogtalk radio show and has launched a new web series, "Up Close and Personal," which broadcast live from the Kulak Woodshed in North Hollywood, CA. Revealing yet another dimension to his musical master mind, "Up Close and Personal" is an intimate peak into the lives and personalities of some of music's most unheralded heroes. The two-hour webcast is a one-on-one conversation set in a music studio/coffee house atmosphere,where guests reveal untold anecdotes, behind-the-scenes revelations and inspiring tales about their musical paths.
