Escape Club Exposes Naked Truth in Celebrity, New CD
Indie label Whipped Cream Records based in Monterey, California announces the release of Escape Club's new CD titled 'Celebrity' featuring 11 new songs through Redeye Distribution of Haw River, North Carolina. Escape Club has five previous Top 100 songs on Billboard, including #1 "Wild Wild West." Escape Club, founded by lead singer Trevor Steel and guitarist John Holliday in the U.K., are known as a Rock band that has sampled Deep Purple in the past. Against that stereotype, Trevor and John wrote a beautiful ballad for a grieving widow, titled "I'll Be There." The song soared to #8 on Billboard and has been updated for the new album as track 11, "I'll Be There (The Sequel)." The rest of the album rocks with tracks such as "Say Hello," "Celebrity," and "God's Own Radio" featuring great guitar and cool lyrics for the second decade of the new millennium. The new Escape Club album is available February 7 online at iTunes, Amazon, and Best Buy, as well as at the best Indie Record stores in your neighborhood. Redeye Distribution can be contacted at http://www.redeyeusa.com/ (1 877 REDEYE 1). Escape Club is expected to support the release with a U.S. tour in the summer. The band looks forward to performing again, as "Playing live was always one of our strengths," Trevor says, "All those years ago it's what got us started in the London clubs and it's something we've missed very much." The new album 'Celebrity' was sent to Adult Alternative rock stations in the U.S., and the single, "God's Own Radio" was arranged to be delivered via the 'A Taste Of Triple A' radio sampler. The sampler is sent to 260 key radio programmers and features the Escape Club single as Track 1, Disc 1, as well as on the CD cover. Promotion for the new 'Celebrity' album also includes online media with viral videos produced by the band introducing new songs, concert performances, and behind the scenes moments.
