Hi, we're looking for a drummer with a great sense of groove and timing. You dont have to be super fast or play a lot of fills to be a great drummer. Look at Ringo! We are looking to play originals. The sound for drums would be something like Blondie, B-52s, INXS, The Beegees, The Killers.. we are not looking to sound like them. That's just so you have a starting point for where the drums would be.. a danceable beat... can be simple. Has to be danceable. We have a lot of influences, but rather than try to compare ourselves to anybody, check out 2 tracks on our site.--

If you are interested, we can email you more mp3s. Pls own your own gear or be willing to get it soon. we rehearse in the city at different studios. If you do email us, pls include your name, phone, any mp3s, links and what time is good to call you. Thanks

Tony Adamo's New Strokeland Release

Tony Adamo’s New Strokeland Records Release
Fred E. Harris, Los Angeles, CA


The soul funk artistry of Strokeland recording artist Tony Adamo is about to hit the radio airwaves in the form of a previous hit song written by Tower of Power (TOP) co-founders Stephen “Doc” Kupka and Emilio Castillo. TOP members, Doc Kupka, Tom Politzer and returning member Mic Gillette add their funky horns to this cover song, another funk pop hit to be.


In keepin’ his ear to the street, guitarist/producer Jerry Stucker added R&B/Soul -legend drummer, James Gadson (Bill Withers, Herbie Hancock and Quincy Jones),The funked-out organist Neil Larson (Gregg Allman, B.B. King, Whitney Houston), and the soulful playing of Reggie McBride on bass (Stevie Wonder, Al Jarreau, Keb’Mo’).

Jim Santella of L.A. JAZZ SCENE MAGAZINE digs Adamo’s strong original style and says, “He sings with the bold character of a man who knows how to entertain, recalling pop singers Tom Jones, David Clayton-Thomas and Brook Benton, as well as jazz singers Al Jarreau and Mark Murphy.” With Tony Adamo’s smooth funk vocals, the triple threat of TOP horns and the rhythm section applying pressure to the groove, this song will be the sound of the summer.

HornDrivenRadio.com will be the first U.S. radio station to break this new MP3, “This Time it’s Real.”

Yes that's right, we will be running this first. We will make an announcement when this song will hit the rotation.
