Gregory J. Chamberlain
I don't even know where to start when it comes to my friend Wade Robson who directed the video below for former Backstreet Boys member AJ Mclean. I became friends with Wade, his sister and mother when he was 8 years old and they just landed in LA from their native Australia. Wade is simply a genius on not just one or two levels, but several. I have not been too big a fan of the overly manufactured pop artists he has choreographed, written or produced for, but one cannot argue with the kind of success all of those artists have had with Wade behind the scenes. And, with that being said.... Hey Wade, when are you going to do your thing as an artist? In my humble opinion, Wade is the real deal more than all those you have supported, combined, with the exception of perhaps Michael Jackson. Esperanza Spalding ![]() A REAL PURE JAZZ ARTIST posted by Gregory J. Chamberlain
You may have already
seen her on The Late Show with David Letterman or on Jimmy Kimmel Live
and
she has been in hundreds of places between here and there, even
playing for heads of state and President Obama. But
in
this big bad world, artists who travel that wide can still remain too
far under the radar. MusicLoad.Com is happy to be is just one
more little venue for this
inspired and gifted multi-genre jazz core artist.
Everything about Esperanza Spalding is a breath of fresh air. As a bassist myself, I appreciate any upright players who can sing and play upright at the same time and she takes it to a whole other level than most. Esperanza is as sweet and beautiful, as you will see in this local CBS TV interview and performance, as she is articulate with her vocals and jazz style. SHEL signs to UMG's (Universal Music Group) Universal Republic Records unit. ![]() .
![]() by
Gregory J. Chamberlain
It was the greatest news
to
hear that SHEL, a favorite MusicLoad band featured on this page last
year, just signed to Universal Republic Records, a Universal Music
Group
(UMG) company.
Musically, they have that thing called "it", consistently. The mighty four consists of Sarah, Hannah, Eva and Liza. Each are serious multi instrumentalists with sharp vocal skills. They spent much time together as children with their father as he gigged professionally. SHEL's music is pure bliss and synchronistic harmony that perhaps only tight enough sisters could possibly achieve. Their music is exactly what I would want my children, if I had any, to be privy to. It's music that does not rely on a gimmick or a beat. My instinct tells me that they shall become queens of the children's market in DVD sales and perhaps enter the field of producing or being regulars on top of the line children's TV programs.. Their video below entitled The Latest Greatest Blueberry Rubber Band is evidence of what I am referring too. I could see this blowing up on kids TV. Don't you think? But their music is not just for kids. It is very sophisticated and the tunes they are showing on their MySpace page is just the tip of the iceberg. Their track entitled Nicolo (click to download or listen) is the kind of song that one might hear upon entering the Queen's palace for a great event. Gorgeous voices and vocal harmonies and a perfect and real string arrangement. It's minimalist and pure. Very classical and elegant. The group will find solid niche in pop, rock and classical & even jazz genres. Which of the genres-charts that they ultimately enter into the marketplace through, first, is yet to be seen. They are diverse and have substance enough to enter through any . ![]() * * Connect Direct with SHEL at MySpace.Com/ColoradoShel and at iLoveSHEL.com Colleen Lovejoy and her track entitled Disappear Video Director: Bruce Francis Cole of BangPop LA Vintage James Brown Video The Godfather teaches you how to dance!

JaC Stone is quite possibly going to be a very big thing :) Click Here To Download a FREE mp3 of JaC Stone's song entitled "I Could Say" ![]() I
Could Say is a song that provokes visual
imagery and an escape for the listener who has the luxury of laying
back for a listen. The clarity and subtle nuances are right up in your
face,
yet seem so far away, as there is depth to the
minimalism. Enjoy :)
Who's Nneka? ![]() The video below is
a artist who is very new to MusicLoad. Her name is
Nneka. Research uncovered she is well known to many around
the world and her sound is gradually creeping everywhere like a great
flood. She has received critical acclaim from major artists such
as Lauren Hill
in America, yet Nneka is still a relative unknown. Her sound has
that originality
that surely has
staying power, for it lacks that time perishibility factor. Nneka
has a blend of super funky soul hip-hop groove influence with her
own raging African roots at the core. She transitioned to Europe
and Germany
from her native Nigeria. She has her very own branded sound from
song to song that lit up our world the second we heard it. The
songs we can't stop playing are the ones that seem to reflect deep
experience and heaviness about African experiences, yet with a
uplifting and exceptionally grooving feel that evokes thought and
activism and love. In the video
below, her song
entitled "Africans" from her album "The Uncomfortable Truth" was shot
on location in Lagos, Nigeria over two years ago. She has a big
body of work. Visit her myspace
page. Words really do not suffice in describing Nneka.
What a sound and a REAL voice!

song "Leave Me In New York" was featured on MTV's series
premiere of 'The City'. Hear Hope and her song "Leave Me In New
York" at MySpace.Com/HearHope
As many may remember (refer bottom of page), MusicLoad found, photographed and featured Hope on MusicLoad.Com before she signed to Atlantic Records. It was clear that she had that intangible and often elusive quality known as "it". About MTV's "The City" It's
a whole new world for
'The Hills' star Whitney Port,
as she packs
up and moves from the comforts of her hometown in Los Angeles to the
bright lights of Manhattan. Surrounded by all new friends, pursuing a
fresh love life, and starting to work in the upper echelon of the
fashion industry is a lot to navigate for a new girl in the big city...
especially one who has everything to lose. Visit The City's MTV webpage here for
more on 'The City'.

Stone =
Hot Unknown
Click here for a free mp3 download of the JaC Stone track entitled You Missed The Point If you have ever been into Mazzy Star, Chris Isaac, Jewel, Lisa Loeb, Kim Carnes, Joni Mitchell, or Suzanne Vega, today you might want to think about JaC Stone. At present, (Jan 2009) JaC is 19 years old and in her 3rd and final year at an Australian university pursuing a Bachelor Degree in Popular Music. ![]() The free download of You Muissed The
Point was
amongst the recordings
she made as part of her first semester assignments in college. It
is the story and her attempt
to wash her soul free from a boy who
was her first true love and childhood sweetheart whom she'd been with
all through high school. It was a heavy song for her and we like
it for such an early demo in any artists career.
MusicLoad thinks JaC Stone has a little something special. She may not be the right artist for every audience, but when JaC finds her audience, she may well be the celebrated company amongst those above mentioned artists and much more. Connect

The
Story of Paula Ferraro
The
video below is a completely
raw camcorder video with a overhead flashlight as the sole
source of light.
A MusicLoad
associate met Paula in line at a juice bar in Venice Beach. It was
reported
she just looked like a rock star without trying.
After
a brief conversation it was determined she was indeed a
singer/songwriter, photographer and talented sketcher and drawer of her
own Picasoesque art which she is always working on, as she is her music.

Multifariously Talented Songwriter/Performer exposes Soulful Side with his track entitled Runaway Click here for a complimentary MP3 download of Glyn Parry and his track entitled Runaway. ![]() Glyn Parry Writing His Next Song It's like bliss to
hear a new song and suddenly drift off, forgetting the days reality, if
even for just a few bars. Glyn Parry did just that and more when
we first heard him croon on one of his myspace pages,
which is why we call him multifarious. He has different MySpace
pages for
different projects that fit the broadness of his musical
background. On his
MySpace page that features more soul oriented music is our favorite
song entitled Runaway. It's a beautiful song
that might make you heart wrenchingly flash back to homeless
souls or runaways you may see in your travels or in your own
neighborhood. With
lines such as "surrounded by, a tearful sky, no hope of love from
passers by", Glyn Parry lays it
down in the
vein of early Boy George Culture Club B sides, with hints of Kenny
Loggins meets Michael Mc
Donald. He has this beautiful vibrato reminiscent of Aaron
Neville. However, Glyn Parry delivers up his own identifiable
vocal sound and is in no way copying or emulating. On his my
space page is a quote that sums really
seems to sum him up:
"It doesn't have to be perfect. Just needs a soul!". MusicLoad.Com would
like to say Glyn Parry has that "it" thing in the soul
department. MusicLoad recommends major artists tap into Glyn
for a hit song and more. If you are a music fan, just enjoy his
songs
while he is still unknown. We are pleased to have found
this fine needle in the haystack.

Moreno hit our radar a few years ago when it was apparent that she has
that intangible, elusive that some people think to be "it". Since
then, she was the overall winner in the John Lennon Songwriting Contest
where the "it" of her songwriting skills become etched in the $20,000
check Gaby and her crew
walked away with as the prize. She is doing exactly
what she loves and that is to play, because she gigs often, sometimes
doing two gigs in one day. To do what one loves with a positive
glow, real smile and a overall grateful nature... That's Gaby, and
that's success in our book!

Bareilles -
SaraBMusic.com
![]() On March 29 2004, MusicLoad's
photographer shot this photo based on a rumor that Sara Bareilles
had "it". She was a hard working food server at the time and was
so low key about her music, never hyping herself. Few knew of her
talent, which is one of those
things that sets her apart from the rest. A year after
that photo moment passed, Sara was presented with and signed a major
label
recording
contract with Epic Records, a division of SonyBMG. Recently
Sara's album entitled Little Voice became the biggest selling album on itunes.com
upon release.A soulful balladeer and a funky girl, she has a definite straight jazz vibe mixed in. Sara B is obviously diverse and a real true musician that is not out riding a trend or a fad. Part of what makes her special is her minimalist and stripped bare naked sound. No overplaying or overly emphasized soul shows her purity. She's soothing at the lowest volume settings and awesome cranked up high. Way

Cruising on
music.download.com, MusicLoad came across French
Horn player Alex Brofsky's jazz genre project entitled AB + and a
sweet vocalist named Jianda who adds what is necessary to make this a
beautiful track to melt into the sofa or the sand, if you are so
lucky. Alex graciously has granted MusicLoad permission to give

The first
time we
had the privilege of seeing Hope Shorter was a moment when we knew
this girl was truly gifted and had that thing MusicLoad calls
"it". She was performing her song entitled "The Rain Don't
Last Forever" in a street performance on the Third Street Promenade in
Santa Monica, California. She was unsigned at the time. On
a street filled with wanna be stars and people who generally keep
walking, a crowd had formed around Hope and her brother who played
bass. The crowd, mostly with their heads bowed and eyes closed
all listened with intensity. That one song had that spine
tingling impact that leaves listeners with tears in their eyes and
spines still tingling. One just knows....... "Hit".
This photo was shot by MusicLoad a few days later at a packed house at Temple Bar in Santa Monica, California just weeks before Hope was signed to a major label recording contract with Atlantic Records, original home to many of the greatest musical stars of all time. Hope has remained practically underground as she is formulating her next recordings. We know that her day will come when she will be a household name around the world. Until then....... Hear
