To Hell With The
Day Job! Reporter Chooses Music Over TV

AWARD-WINNING REPORTER SINGS A DIFFERENT
TUNE
She racked up Emmy Awards and recognition nationwide.
But for Houston television reporter Eileen Faxas, something was
always missing. So she dumped her day job to devote herself to her
true love: singing and songwriting.
Her debut CD "Dance Cry
Swing" is already getting airplay on major Houston radio stations
and selling in stores in Houston, Miami and online at
www.EileenFaxas.com. The first single is a sexy bilingual dance song
called "Take A Chance" that recalls the sound of the Miami Sound
Machine in its heyday.
Born in Miami and raised on a diet of
American, Latin and World music, the Cuban-American songwriter lets
her roots show... making her debut CD a bilingual journey from
powerful ballads to Latin-infused pop and jazz to all-out Salsa
jams.
With an unmistakable power-voice that's all her own,
Eileen is drawing comparisons to artists as diverse as Gloria
Estefan, Celine Dion and Evanescence. Her musical influences include
these women, as well as Cuban "Salsa Queen" Celia Cruz and deeply
personal songwriters like Tori Amos.
Album producer Dan
Workman, who's worked with top artists like Destiny's Child and ZZ
Top, called Eileen "one of the most natural songwriters I've ever
met", and industry website GarageBand.com named her Spanish release
"Vivelo" a Track of the Week.
The world of TV news may be
losing one of its stars, but the music world promises to be better
for it.

Arms of Kismet
- Multi-Personality Order
There's no easy
way to describe Arms of Kismet and what's on the new Cutting Room Rug, a sequel CD to 2004's debut, Eponymous. Post modern new wave with a
self-satirical edge that treats the 1980s like a self-serving god,
full of bubblegum angst and free- wheeling guitar riffs? Does that
come a little bit close? Let's listen...
The Messies -
Just Enjoying the Ride
In a world of
smug, self-satisfied pop stars, L.A.'s The Messies are
a welcome breath of fresh air. They write and perform extremely
likeable songs that are as fun to sit and listen to as they are to
dance to. Even the suggestive-sounding track, "Super Sexy," on their
debut CD, Behind Every Scream, is more fun and playful than
seductive or sleazy, with Kidd's strong and clear vocals plaintively
asking a girl to pay attention to him.
