Great music lasts beyond a trend--and it may not fit any current definition-but it's probably a blend of things you love. Gina Towell's album, "Phoenix", features new classics from today. Here's what listeners say about the album- Do Over - "Feels like a jam band you'd want to run into playing your favorite bar/restaurant on a Saturday night. Guitar riffs remind me of Santana, upbeat piano playing and a snappy bass line...You can feel the energy coming out of the track, makes you want to get up, sway your hips and clap your hands." "The instrument playing was spectacular, really professional showing an obvious talent. The singers vocals also didn't disappoint. Strong voice, passionate and engaging. The lyrics were well written and easy to sing along to-kinda blusey/jazzy in places. Great put together performance." "This song keeps you jamming from beginning to the end...The saxophone joins in and turns this record into a jazz song." "I really like this sound because it seemed to be a mixture of blues and country, and I never got bored listening...This artist is someone I plan to look up in the future for other music options." Shallow Heart - "I love it...The lyrics were very well written, vocals melted into my soul..." "This is a beautiful song with compelling and imaginative lyrics...this is the type of performance that makes the hairs stand on the back of your neck..." "...the vocals were amazing.  This singer has a lot of potential. The lyrics were lovely. There was a real story and emotion in this song. The message was awesome.  I am deeply impressed by this artist which doesn't happen often..." "... I could hear Celine Dion, Donna Summer and maybe a touch of Jennifer Hudson. This was a beautifully written song from the music to the lyrics. Excellent." "She has a splendid voice,and the high notes she hits has the capabilities to send chills throughout ones body." Crazy for You -  "The strong instrumental line makes me want to get up and dance! The lyrics are fun and silly..." "The music in this song is sensual feels like it has a mix of Spanish influences as well as early 60s soul with a touch of rock. The singer...can be very sexy with her voice too which is a good plus for this song. I dig it!' "The lyrics are also comical. The beats is catchy and i will make sure to buy this song for my ipod!... The sax added...a sweet treat that adds a funky flare to the beat and melody." Not Raisin' the Flag - "A very beautiful and elegant track, the vocalist has a great talent...her voice is haunting..." "The vocals are breathtaking, gave me chills...Lyrics are just mind blowing." "Very touching and motivating musical selection. This song definitely has huge hit potential." "Good meaningful, beautiful lyrics...This song is just star quality all over it!" Monster - "I don't know what sounded more badass, The guitar player, The female voice or the whole song in general...The song tells a story feeling about the monsters in everyone, Not just Vampires, Werewolfs or Zombies. I love this song." "Right away from the beginning I could imagine millions of crazy images from this song...The lyrics... are really catchy and totally original; I have never heard a song like this one before. This is so weird and excellent." Phoenix - "I thoroughly enjoyed the choice of instruments used in this tune. What I noticed among all the musical elements was the velocity and passion in this artist's voice. She is so tremendously talented vocally. She has an unbelievable control over her voice that it's totally unreal. I haven't heard someone that passionate in a very long time. The lyrics are ones that I've never heard before but really captured my interest. They told a truly unique story. I loved this song!' "I love the music, it's beautiful. I must admit that the music made me get goosebumps almost immediately... I rate this a 10/10." "...She gives us a clear and heartfelt performance, and works magic with the deep and meaningful lyrics. It's an amusing and memorable experience in every moment, but mostly by the impressive pitch range and stylish touch of the singer. She's the reason why this song makes a deep impact." "This song really touched my heart. Lyrics beautifly song. Melody and harmony just the best. Rhythm is so calming. Instruments really put this song to the top. Production and arrangement are more than words can say. The song really got to me." If you like a latin, 60's-beatnik vibe, you'll love 'Crazy for You'--a humorous twist on true love. If you like a rockin' song with a jazz feel, you'll love 'Do Over'--and you could find yourself driving down old Highway 60 when you hear the country corn of 'Lost in Bartlesville." Maybe you'll just shuffle on down the street there and meet that grand old man as you sway to the sweet, gentle country strum of "His Guitar". And we've all met her! That diva who can look mean, sounds even meaner when she flings the verbal sword. She finally gets her day in "Monster"; this classical-inspired, rockin' song will make you laugh with dark humor as you feel a wicked, secret smile spread across your face--could be the next Halloween classic! In a different direction, 'I Heard the Coyotes Tonight" with great background harmony along with follow-on "Full Moon" with Irish folk violin bring memories of those beautiful nights when you felt alone--but somehow you knew you weren't. When you can't take another hit from life-that's when you listen to "Not Raisin' The Flag". Yes, you will fight-and you'll reach from dark ashes to free and open sky with 'Phoenix' for joy. Songwriter Gina Towell is known for her soulful singing style. Her lyrics are funny, satirical, intellectual and moving. Listeners love production of these songs with rockin' bass, drums and guitar as played by Carter Green of Green Jeans Studios as well as occasional touches of jazz from saxophonist Sean Dwyer. Reviewers say her music has hints of James Blunt, Ray Charles, even Celine Dion and Dolly Parton. Enjoy!
